lemonade

Luckily my afternoon apt. canceled last minute or we would have missed a way fun afternoon. It all started with little Elle, from next door, stopping by with a pitcher of lemonade. The next thing we know we have a lemonade stand, we made new friends,(meet Eva and Sam) crafted a business plan (ie. a sign), and set up the slip'n'slide. (It was too hot just to sit there) We went through about a gallon of lemonade and we sold 6 cups. Hayli loved the idea and really thought she would make good money, when the other kids lost interest and just played in the water, Hayli was dedicated organizing and "manning" the store. In the end our little display gathered neighborhood friends and we had a great afternoon of play.......not so much money making. :)
But as we were cleaning up Hayli said "we should do this every Monday!"
