We have finally sold the last of our apples. We got up early this morning and loaded up the trailer. The Manager of the produce auction called us this morning before we headed out to see if we were planning on bringing apples! He was happy to hear that we were and made sure that the loading area was clear for us so we could back right in and unload. The apples sold for quite a bit more than we thought they would! We had lots of fun after unloading!
Here, the work crew is playing with empty boxes in the back of our trailer. Imagine little kid's blocks on steroids!

How's this for riding in style?
Free Puppies! How cute is this?
Bummer! Those sweet little eyes couldn't even convince the Apple Farmer to let it come home!
YUMMY!
Heading home! Wow - Check out all of those wheels!

Wow, how exciting to have sold the rest of the apples, and for more than you thought! What fun pictures! We sure miss you guys!
Forgive my ignorance, but where are you getting apples to sell in February?
Glad to hear the good news.
I am so excited the apples sold! What a blessing! The first thing that came to my mind was it was after the trip to Nauvoo...hmmmm.
We are so happy for all of you.
Chris - Yes, it was after our trip to Nauvoo ;)
Steph - These are the last of our very large crop. We weren't able to get full price for them, but they were high prices for canner's. They aren't as fresh as they were during season, but they are still good and juicey. A lot of people out here can, especially the Amish, so a think there will be a lot of apple sauce made this week!
Jenn - We miss you guys too!!!!
