Our 'lil entrepreneur

Yesterday was our annual neighborhood garage sale and Alli's first time running her lemonade stand.
She got up bright and early to be at the stand when we opened at 8 a.m.
Looking positively adorable in her footie PJs and Mommy's coat, tasting her lemonade!
Her initial plan was to charge $.80 but we told her it was going to be donations only.
She convinced Ducky Gramma to make cookies and Mommy to make cake pops.
Everything was a huge hit and Alli was a great sales person.
When folks would arrive, she would exclaim "Oh, I have customers!"
Needless to say, everyone thought she was adorable and she did quite well despite the rain!
This little entrepreneur made $40.55!!!
We were very impressed.
Of course, it wasn't all work, she took many breaks to enjoy the cake pops . . .


 
 After the sale, Alli was supposed to be taking a nap.  This is what she was wearing when she "woke up"
Just call her Fancy Alli ;-) 
She was very excited to separate her money into her Give, Save & Spend banks.
Again, we were so proud of her.  We told her that at least $4 had to go in Give ~ She wanted to put in $12!
She split the remaining evenly into Save and Spend.
Alli's hope is to buy a new Barbie at some point.
