4th of July Fun!

Adam and I were planning to spend this Forth of July visiting our friends who are helping down at Aldersgate Camp this week, but it was just too gol' dang hot for me to be outside all day. So we decided to take advantage of the fact that Adam had an ENTIRE day off and start to clean out some rooms in our house. Adam was very opposed to this idea for a long time, but I wanted to get the baby's room cleared out while I still had the energy to do it. This week we had a wise friend ask if we were going to start to get her room ready before I got too tired to do it. So needless to say, we had quite the fun Fourth of July getting baby's room cleaned and ready to go. Here are some pictures from our day:

The Baby room before

Another angle. It has been a great office/guest room

Lots of books to move!

Our spare room. This is where my sewing took place and was the remnants of Adam's man cave. (BEFORE)

At one point our house looked like we belonged on Hoarders!

Penelope was totally confused by all the moving today. Poor pup!

Baby room AFTER! Vacuumed, mopped, and ready for a nursery! :)

She has a lamp!

Our new study! It looks great! AFTER

It was a great day! We found all sorts of treasures in our attic, which was 1000 degrees. Adam was up there organizing for about an hour and I was so worried because it was hot up there. We had a good laugh when Adam found a place on the attic floor where a previous owner wrote "You will die up here".

We spent the rest of the day doing the most patriotic things we can think of 1) shopping at Walmart and 2) going to Burger King for dinner. We packed lunches for our youth group boat trip tomorrow and now were home sitting on the couch watching fireworks on T.V. while the DOG sleeps on the couch. Wooo! God Bless America! :)

Happy 4th of July!
