How could you not stop by this stand and get some lemonade from these four little girls? You can’t! They’re too cute. We decided that it was finally time to dejunk the garage this Saturday, and while we were cleaning we had quite a few people stop and start “shopping around” what they thought was a garage sale. Guess we had a lot of crap.
So the girls thought they’d do a lemonade stand, it’s the traditional activity when Mom and Dad are cleaning the garage or having a sale. It’s perfect for two reasons:
Lemonade Stand
1. It kept them occupied and
2. It kept them occupied.
Paige and Emma busied themselves getting the tables and chairs, Aunt Anna made the lemonade and I made the sign. Soon they were out to make their first dollar. It was so funny to watch them interact with their guests. All in a five minute period, this is what was going on:
Emma looked like an air traffic controller waving cars in to park so they could get lemonade
Paige was doing a butt swinging dance and then pointing to the sign
Avery was waving like Miss Texas
And Storie was licking all the straws (and putting them back) and drinking all the lemonade.
As the show went on, Storie became even more helpful-adding straws (the licked ones) to drinks, taking a sip and announcing, “Is good!!”
I know what business I’m going into next, lemonade stands. They made $26!!!

Very cute! I had to drive down Glenloch and saw them out there. I was going to stop and get some but I had to pee way to bad and was freezing from getting caught in the rain. Just as well… considering Storie had tested all the product.
Your ‘numerous cats’ makes you sound like one of those cat ladies… you know the ones that smell like a litter box… lucky we all know better!!
I love it-that was so much fun!!!

Next time I need some quick cash I might send my kids out. Not sure if they could make 26 bucks though. Hmmm, maybe I’ll borrow Emma first.
