Party Recap

This was a lot of fun! I tried to pull in other colors to be a little different, and I got a lot of the stuff throughout last summer as it went on clearance, the lemonade stand added to the party, but it was a great source of entertainment and play for the kids, using a non-breakable lemonade jug.
