Our little entreprenuers...Peaches for Sale!












































$10 a box...
We set up shop on the corner by our house where we would see the most cars. I made up a couple of signs and Brynley helped me carry the boxes down to the corner while Addyson sat strapped in the stroller. She wasn't too happy about that, but luckily we had an abundance of suckers, so that kept her pretty much occupied the whole time (She loved the ring pop). I told the girls to wave their arms when they saw a car. They even started taking their job a little more serious...holding peaches up in the air and pointing excitedly at the signs. We even had "samples" of our juicy peaches. It was slow going for the first 10 minutes, but after that, we had pretty constant traffic. We even had a guy buy a couple for his lunch. We sold 7 boxes in about an hour and the girls made $70 towards their playhouse in the backyard. It was so fun to do together...I can't wait to do it again next year.
