Our Lemonade Stand

It all started with the neighborhood kids selling pickles and water.
Pickles and Water - Who Knew it would be such a hit!! 
Everyone was supporting their stand and buying things from them and even River came in and got her $$ to go buy pickles and water.  She came back in awhile later asking for more $$ so she could buy some more.  We suggested that she pick something that she could sell to earn back her $$.  She decided to sell gummy worms.   She not only made her $$ back, but made a couple more nickles as well.   Hhhmmmmm, gummy worms or pickles??

So then next day they decided to set up an even better stand...They pooled their goods and sold gummy worms, kool-aid, hair ties, and assorted candies.   

They set up their store complete with a stand, sign and cash register!!

They set up the stand on the most visible part of our street and made quite a lot of $$.

We split all the $$ evenly.

 Our budding entrepreneurs!

Follow Their Lead

I love watching kids interract with each other and see what they come up with to do together.

Here River, Silver, MJ and Austin are playing Musical Chairs.

We had a chair for each of them and they'd squeal and run to their chair each time. 

TOO CUTE! 

Here we have the neighborhood girls playing in the sand box. 

Left to Right: Winter, Silver, River, Tomi, Shayla

They discovered with a little water, they could make volcanoes! 

Here is their frog.  With his bulgey eyes, nose and smiley mouth :)

Dr Visit

These pictures are a bit dated - last summer before Summer was born :)

Here we have Dr. River doing a complete physical for Silver. 

Because I was pregnant, they learned that no Dr appt is complete without listening for the heartbeat.

They always got a kick listening for the beating sound! 

here they are taking care of their babies.

I love this picture with River in the background, and both girls feeding their babies.

Ride 'em Cowgirl!

A fun evening of riding the horse.

River came up with this invention and had so much fun with it!

Ye Haw!

We had fun making our corn girls dance with their pretty green dresses
