I'm just your average Mom & Wife,
who leads a fabulously crazy life.
I do a million & 1 things during the day,
and try like heck to blog about them!

Get your Lemonade!

Last weekend, Nina had a sleepover with her friend Vanessa.
There was never a dull moment with these two!
On Sunday, they decided to have a Lemonade stand!
I came home to find a sink full of lemons -
Danny didn't think the girls would get very many customers -
We live on a cul-de-sac, and don't get much traffic.
Boy was he wrong!
These two savvy business gals raked in $12 by selling  
25cent lemonade, and 50cent popcorn!


Vanessa & Nina are ready for their customers.
The girls had Danny dig through the shed to find Nina's old lemonade stand.
You might be wondering why Nina is wearing two different colored flip-flips...
She lost 1 of each color. Oh my!


They made a GREAT team!
One person got the cups out, they both poured the juice,
and one person scooped the popcorn.
A fool-proof system, for sure!


Here they are happily taking the money from a customer.
Our neighbors were WONDERFUL for stopping by.
At one point, the girls had a line going down our driveway!


For the most part, they kept up with their inventory.
From time to time they ran in the house to pop more popcorn.
I think they sold about 3 bottles worth of lemonade!


Another VIP customer!
This is Max. He's a cute, thirsty neighbor boy.


Such great customer service.
Popcorn in hand, and lemonade being served.



Here is another neighbor that was gracious enough to pose for a picture!
She bought lemonade & popcorn, and even let them keep the change.
Thank you for helping support Nina & Vanessa's lemonade stand!
And the cutest part about this story...
They both decided to donate $10 to their girl scout troop!
{They're keeping $1 for each of them}
