So Pioneer Day we drove out to Spanish Fork to see the fireworks. It's such a long drive though that the kids fell fast asleep - not to be woken. Plus the fireworks were way late starting, so we headed home. Turns out UVU had some this year as well - Ce La Vie!
Anyways, Jack woke up at 5am asking if he'd miss the fireworks and being so sad he did. We talked about buying sparklers and setting a few off...
J: Mom, what I'd really like is a remote control helicopter.
Me: Well, we'll have to work for that, we could do a Lemonade Stand
J: Yes!
We set everything up on Saturday and thanks to Jack's friends and a few strangers we were able to make $12.60 in an hour and a half! He already had about $12, just a little ways more and he'll be able to buy his own remote control chopper!
Some fun notes from the day:
Annabelle calls the camera cheese, so I asked her to grab the cheese, well, she went to the fridge and brought a big bag of cheese with her:)
And Jack, I've trained him so well, that while we were grabbing the cheese he was out front, he missed his first customer because 'she was a stranger and I can't talk to strangers mom' and then later when he was giving a lemonade cup to a truck he couldn't quite reach it because he wouldn't step off the curb - we know we can never step out in the road:)
