when life gives you lemonade...

sell it!!!

that's just what we did on sunday afternoon! ella, madeline, and their precious new friend leslie elizabeth decided to test out their entrepreneurial skills and set up a lemonade stand for the neighborhood to enjoy! i am happy to report that they racked up about $12 dollars...mostly due to the fabulous neighbors and family members that supported their business! i wish that we had thought it through a little bit more and decided where we might donate the money...but apparently ella told one customer that we were raising money to buy toys at "toys r us" - we need to work on our philanthropic spirit just a bit more i do believe!!!!!


i love the fact that my girls get to enjoy these wonderful moments that come along with living on such an amazing street...i wish i could just bottle up the feeling and sell it...but the fact is, it's just priceless. it's frankly what i have waited my whole life to experience!

we look forward to setting up many more lemonade stands in the future...and finding special ways to share our profits...

it only seems fitting to give back...because the abundance of blessings that we are receiving these days is endless!!!
