Lemonade Stand

Kyle has been wanting to have a lemonade stand for a long, long time. I heard about the free lemonade stands that Sunkist sends out with a promise to give the proceeds to charity (thanks for the tip Alisha). That seemed too good to be true as 1. Tripp hasn't got the base boards back in yet so he really doesn't have the time to built us a lemonade stand 2. We love raising money for charity. I watched their website like a hawk for almost a year and the 2008 stands finally became available. I signed us up and ours arrived at the beginning of the summer. Today, we set the thing up and sold our lemonade for Corps of Compassion (one of our favorite local charities). Abbie drank her share but Kyle balanced it out by knocking on tons of doors and running around the neighborhood checking to see if anyone wanted to buy some. The kids raised $16.25 in their hour outside (remember, not too great of weather at 2 p.m. in Vegas). Kyle already wants to branch out and run two simultaneously next time, one at our house and one in Laurel Glen (the next neighborhood over). He also wants to be in charge of the advertising (we didn't do any) so watch out Marz & Company, I think we have your newest employee!
