Cookies, lemonade and donating to the hungry


This past summer Early Bird wanted to have a lemonade stand. Unfortunately we weren't able to get around to doing it until a couple of weeks ago. Since we live on a cu-de-sac we don't have much foot traffic, however, our church definitely gets alot of foot traffic after the services so we decided to set up there instead!

I asked her what she wanted to do with the money and she said she wanted to donate it to the hungry. (She must get that from me ;).

So, we finally set up her stand after church service a couple of weeks ago and she did a GREAT job! A few days before we made a sign, Snicker doodles,  oatmeal and store-bought chocolate chip cookies (shhh! don't tell anyone the chocolate chip cookies weren't homemade!). 

She ended up making $134.50 and we did donate it to the hungry!

We had so much fun and loved getting to help those in need that we might make it a yearly event.


Also, that morning, before church service, we were the official greeters. She passed out the bulletins and I shook their hands. We made a great team and had alot of fun in the process!
