First things first when i get up in the morning...... put on some cute shoes. ..{hubby thinks i have a shoe problem}..
stop at the drive-thru Starbucks only to say "hello" to Marcy, oh and maybe see if they have a grande skinny vanilla latte available..... {hubby also thinks i have to stop saying "hello" to Marcy"...
then I head home and flip thru some "wholesale" catalogs and dream up things to order for the shop/my home......... while the kids........
separate all my vintage buttons. This is a great "project" for them to do if you feel like you need a breather! Hey kids.....could you pull out ALL of my white buttons and put them in this jar?.......
then we head to the aquarium............it's a pretty cool place! There are seals, and starfish......
and all kinds of turtles that have been rescued.........
if you are lucky, then you might even see some crabs and lobsters......
the best part of my day is sending the children out to the front yard for a lemonade stand .....except we don't sell it......
we give it away for "free". The reason we don't sell our lemonade is because the kids make it and if the kids make it then ya never know what it's going to taste like. One day, when we didn't have anything to make, we had to pull out some frozen "mojito" mix { alcohol free}. Now that was a treat, and since that day, we decided to not "sell" , but to "give" away.
Funny part is...kids end up making more in "tips" then if they sold the stuff.
OH! and it helps to have them paint their own faces!!! That really gets the customers to stop by...

Looks like you and the kids had a ball...my kids love to have lemonade stands...I might have to talk them into the painting their faces next time. ;-)
What a fun day! How cute is the aquarium! I love that wholesale catalog too! I ordered the number votive cups to pour candles in. Have a great day!
What a fun day - especially magazine shopping!
So cute! You've got me all geared up for our spring break to start on Friday.
Hi, I'm a new 'follower' I joined last night and couldn't wait to see what was happening with you today! I have to say "snap" we have the same addiction and taste in shoes and "snap" again; mines always a skinny vanilla latte. Your kids are just adorable, we haven't tried the lemonade stand thing at our house; maybe that can be a project for the weekend? :o)
you are such a delight! I love how you start your mornings.
Too funny!
I love those number pots by the way. Hope to see them in your shop soon;)
so adorable! thanks for stopping by my blog!
No such thing as a "shoe problem" & a girl needs her Starbucks...maybe you should stop listening to hubby;) The kiddos look adorable!
Your day sounds perfectly wonderful! My day also starts with a trip to Starbucks (same drink as you!), but sadly, I don't get to visit even the tiniest of little.magical aquariums.
What a great post - thanks for sharing!
First thing: love the shoes! Second: Your kids are just adorable - the painted faces and lemonade stand are hilarious and cute! Good times.
I'm going to have to remember that button seperating project, when my son gets older... right now he'd just eat them.
thanks for letting us have a fun visit....

Very fun! Love the painted faces! We do lots of lemonade stands around here too. I want a drive-thru Starbucks!(or maybe that would be bad...)

So cute. What a great mom you are Kasey.
LOVE the shoes, the trips to "see" Marcy, and really all of it. Very creative with your kids. I will have to get out some stuff to play aquarium. Neva will love it. Did I mention she got a new pet fish, Dorothy? She likes to pet it. Ugh.
Much too cute!!
Cute day! but I think I may have to come steal your shoes! they are amazing!

Ha- I think it's funny that you took Marcy's picture! ... then we head to the aquarium... I love it! GREAT idea on the lemonade stand- the "price" and the face paint!!! Sooo creative...
How fun! Reading your blog makes me want to have kids! I dunno if I'm ready yet though eheh.
