Lemonade Stand


At the end of our street, we have the best place for a lemonade stand. There are only 3 entrances in Terrace Park and this is one of them. Ella & Jill asked to have a Lemonade Stand and for whatever reason, Susan (Jill's mom) and I agreed. Must have been a week moment :) We figured we could handle this "together."

We made over $8 in an hour but in true kid form, we probably drank at least $5 of that. It was a great day and other than the boys wanting to jump into the creek behind us, it was a success. Since it was a Friday afternoon around 4 pm, next time we should try some wine or beer---drinking and driving anyone?

How can anybody resist this?

I love in the background you see Donnie working the sign :)


Then he chose break time.....too cute!


The girls drove back to our house to get more lemonade.
It was a big success!

No children were injured while taking this picture but pretty sure there is something unsafe about this :)

What a cute post! I remember the days of the old lemonade stand - would have loved some transportation back then - The girls driving the Barbie car for more supplies is hilarious! Another fun day with the Willetts!

How fun! You can't have a summer without a lemonade stand, right? It looks like the kids had a great time. Hope your getting the last bit of fun out of the summer!

25 cents is a bargain these days! :) I agree--it's a fun summer tradition to have a lemonade stand. Glad they had fun!
