Birthday boys
Well I'm in party planning mode for the boys. The big ol' 7 & 8 is a year that demands business I guess. And this year they want Star Wars. Z is so Star Wars crazy he has surpassed his father on Jedi knowledge, let me tell ya that's not easy to do.
So I'm planning, making, creating and seeing how I can do things better and cheaper!
Along with party on the mind the boys have been harassing me! YES! Harassing me for LEMONADE! They say they want to earn their own money and sell lemonade. So here I am in a situation of Where? Why? NO!!!
We dont' get much traffic on our street how are they going to sell? I'm going to go through all the work and after 10 minutes and a few beads of sweat you know they are going to want to come back in. RIGHT? But alas they shall have a lemonade stand. Think we'll go over to Mamaw and Papaw's shop and see if we can sell goods there. OR I've even considered doing in on Saturday putting signs for all the garage sale hoppers. They can come by for lemonade and brownies. Well we shall see.
As for dropping the ball? We let our kids play outside on the jungle gym....at midnight! I feel bad but its about 105 during the day. Then it's bath and bed time. I always feel a bit guilty letting them play out so late (yes we are out with them and so is Nina our killer of rugs dog.). Also today I was folding towels on the couch one minute then next thing I know I hear a little voice say "Mom, Z is crying because he lost at his Star Wars game." Huh? Wha? Am I actually laying in the fetal position dead asleep on the couch? How did that happen????
Oh I guess they're night playing is starting to affect me, I'm seriously dropping the ball!

We have a whole wagon full of lemon stand stuff....just waiting for a break in the 10000 degree weather too! We have candy bars, chips, fun pops, and lemonade. :) The girls have been hounding me to set it up for them, but we too get NO traffic on our street. :(
