Its "Into the Archives Thursday"!
3/10/2011
Since I did a picture of some of my Webster cousins last week, I decided to do something from the Braithwaite side (mom's side). I'm pretty sure this picture was take in July 2003 (maybe even possibly on the 28th if the date on the picture is correct). All of the cousins were visiting Nana, who lives in Utah.

Here I am with the
Reinstein cousins and my brother KEW. I have fond memories of this day.
I remember that one of us had the great idea of running a lemonade stand. So we went up to Nana's art area and found plenty of paper and coloring supplies and made a great sign.
Next we went to her freezer and pulled out some of her frozen lemonade and put it in a large measuring cup. Then we brought out her plastic toy organizer and put it at the end of the driveway, taped the sign to it and set the lemonade on top and decorated the ground around it with pine cones. And we waited.
We waited through the heat. We waited some more. Then our first costumer...sort of. She said that she would come back later and get some. (she never did) It was so hot that we brought it back into the shade. We did end up with a few costumers! In fact there was one time that so many people came that we had to go raid Nana's freezer again!
This was so long ago (at least it feels like it) that I find it funny that I remember it in detail. I think we ended up using all of Nana's lemonade. But in the end I know we some had money. I don't know how much. I don't know who got it. I just remember we had fun sitting in the heat and getting excited over costumers.
Want to see more pictures of this fun adventure???
