The Painting of the Nugget

Today we painted the Nugget. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, let me fill you in. 
Last year, Cole got on Craigslist and found us a gem of a camper. It is a 1968 Champion. And let me tell you, it looks like it is from 1968. Brown curtains, yellow/gold floor etc. BUT we scored it for $500 and it is perfect for our little fam. It has
 a kitchenett, table, bunkbeds, and a small cabinet to store your crap.
This is what the Nugget looked like during our camping trip to the Big Horns last year.(Yes, that is a giant flag on the side. God Bless the USA!!)

We have enjoyed our little camper and have decided its time for a little remodeling. I found some cheap, stick-on linoleum flooring to cover the old stuff. I also am using a pretty nice bedding set that was given to me. Eventually we are going to take out the cabinets, sand them, and put on a nice coat of paint to freshen up the inside. 
So, anyways, today we painted the Nugget. Just white, nothing fancy. But we made this a family affair. The kids put on Cole's t-shirts and some gloves and helped us out.
We are going to take the Nugget out tomorrow for a mini-trip. Pictures and blogging to follow.
