July 4th smoothies & living room projects

We had a fun 4th of July becoming JR firefighters, getting to sit in a fire truck (even though Dylan kept saying that he wanted to sit in the driver seat...which was not the seat they were offering), listening and dancing to music at our town's Red, While and Blues Festival...while sipping on a cool strawberry smoothy, and having dinner with some friends.


With the mention of the desire for a new living room wall color...a large project evolved. We ripped out old wood paneling that had years of wall paper and paint, and our carpet...which luckily revealed nice wood floors. We got on a roll and sold our old red couch and got a new one after talking about it for years. We are just about done with the project and will post pictures once everything is back in it's place.
Here the boys were so very excited to help Daddy with collecting all the staples he had pulled out while ripping out the carpet. These boys LOVE tools. The other day Dylan asked me if I could get him the pipe wrench out of the garage. I'm not sure if I could even identify what a pipe wrench looks like!
