one of the most memorable parts of our trip was the day we went to an amish auction
it was a produce auction
boxes of potatoes, raspberries, squash, kale, pumpkins and more were being auctioned off to anyone who wanted to register for a number.
someone gave ashton her very own little gourd
she was pretty mesmerized by that quick talking auctioneer
dad gave us a ride on one of these thing a ma jigs.
sweet gg elaine had herself a number and she was hilarious bidding on all sorts of stuff.
here is some of the goodness she scored.
and then mom took us out to the side of the auction barn
so that we could see the amish horses and their buggies
we had borrowed a sweet little amish book from the library that we read before we went out to "amish country" and avery was precious and embarrassing as she exclaimed, rather loudly, LOTS of times "look mom, there are the amish's"
a neat experience for sure.
