One of the things on our summer to-do list was to have a lemonade stand. I loved having these as a kid and thought it would be a perfect time to do it when the kids were here. All of the extra hands would be needed in getting what I had envisioned all ready
Adam getting one of the signs ready
I put the girls to work counting and bagging up lemon heads
Ainsley and Grandma Barb were making the Rice Krispie treats. I figured we couldn't just sell lemonade. Most people want a little treat to go along with their drink, right?
The crew with their finished signs. Hopefully everyone LOVES the kids' artistic talents that were displayed nicely on their signs
The finished goods
Everything set up and ready to go
Trying to flag down customers. My favorite part; watching the kids run around with their signs and hollering for someone to stop and buy something. They actually won over the Fed Ex man.
We ran out of goodies and ran back to the house about 5 times to make more lemonade during the 2 hours the lemonade stand was open. The kids were anxious to see what they had made in money. After paying me back for the groceries they each ended up with $5, which for a kid is a lot of money; that's why they had to pay me grocery money because without that they would have made a killing. Until next summer's lemonade stand ....
