A lemonade stand is such an iconic American childhood experience huh? We are lucky to live in a neighborhood where people walk to the pool so we got quite a bit of traffic in the two hours the stand was open.
The funniest part of the stand is the boys would never fill anyone's cups very full. We had to remind them to fill up the cups. Afterward Jon pointed out we never give the boys full cups at home due to many many MANY spilled cups of milk, so why would they know most people get full cups? So sad yet so hilarious.
The boys learned a lot of lessons in their first lemonade stand:
- People like pink lemonade more than regular lemonade even though they taste the same.
- Tipping is quite common. So common that they tipped me and Jon for helping them with the stand.
- Drinking the product may cut into your profits but nothing tastes better on a hot day than a cold glass of lemonade.

Oh, I love how they didn't know that most people get full cups. What a great way for the boys to learn about a great American tradition.
LOVE it - how long did you get them to stand outside?
Love! Did they stay interested the entire time?
This is great! I love that they had a lemonade stand! Your boys have such a great childhood!
Love, too. I love that they tipped you! You totally deserve it. =)
Love love love! S&H wanted a lemonade stand, but I think we'll wait for next year.
How fun!!! That 1st pic is one of my favorite of your boys so far!!!
Glad that you are carrying on the tradition. So far, we haven't had the opportunity (the heat is oppresive here in TX!)
I would seriously buy lukewarm tap water from those two cuties. Am I too late to stake my claim on one of the Case boys for my daughter when they're adults?
This is to cute. Such beautiful boys!
