More Lemonade Stand Pictures.

Melissa Beene Ford/ Katie

A full lemonade stand and an empty money jar.

I felt sorry for the girls at first. No customers….

But they found a way to pass the time til the tourists showed up!

…but it was a short break!! Customers soon began rolling in all day long, sometimes lining up, 4 or 5 carloads at a time!




While the girls were busy helping some UT Basketball students who stopped by, a Celebrity client appeared behind them….

Mrs. O’Sullivan, greatest First Grade teacher *EVER*.

The girls scrambled to get Mrs. O her lemonade.

Being the wonderful teacher that she is, she didn’t miss a chance for a quick math lesson.

She had the girls take turns counting the money in the coffee can….little did she know, there was LOTS more $$ in the house….we just wanted the days’ total to be a surprise. 😉

And boy was it! 🙂 They made $159.12 selling lemonade all day.

Two hot and tired girls took a much-needed lunch break under a tree.

And of course, we couldn’t let Mia and Julie miss any of the fun. They watched from the swing.

Until next year!

    Ok, I’m having my own lemonade stand if there is that kind of money to be had in the deal! <br /><br />You need to sell your business plan…in this economy, you could get rich on people wanting to learn how to sell lemonade!

    That’s awesome! And I’m glad I’m not the only one who sports American girls everywhere I go!
