Cousins Making Bank




Jenny and her family are here and this weekend we went to the beach to play. It was so fun. There is nothing better than seeing cousins play together. There is definitely a special connection they have...and anytime I get with my sister is extra special. One of my favorite things to observe is the two youngest kids (Katie - almost four & Francie) as they try and keep up with the big kids. Hysterical. On Saturday the kids came up with the idea to make a lemonade stand. They made signs, name tags (with name, age, city) and four different kinds of lemonade. They were hysterical. They even through in some dancing to draw in a crowd. They made 44.00 dollars (I thought we should have spiked the lemonade to increase profit...) and the four oldest split it up amongst themselves. Henry has not let go of his bag of $11.00 and spent most of the car ride home from the beach discussing his options for how to spend his money. Sweet Mary said that the money wasn't the best part...it was the giving....gotta love that kid.
