Lemonade Stand



The girls have been bugging me almost every day this summer to have a lemonade stand. And finally today was their day, yay!!! After a quick trip to the grocery store & the party store we were ready to set up shop with our favorite friends & neighbors, Ellie & Sloane.  Per their request we made PINK lemonade & cookies, cupcakes & brownies too. You have to sell snacks too, right?!?!  Gracie also made a sign to market our stand & she created a jingle too. "Lemonade it's oh so sweet, so stop on by & also get a treat!!!"  Highlights of the day included...Uncle Bob coming by :), a taxi cab driver stopping traffic to get a glass & a man spending $20 for a whole plate of cupcakes!!! And for a bonus mommy also got 2 new babysitter numbers who thought the girls were cute & sweet.   They even wanted a picture with the girls.  Our sales surpassed $100....way to go girls!!! :)  Half our sales go to their piggy bank & the other half will be used for a shopping spree outing at Target.
