Auction

Last night we had our auction at church to raise money for our youth group.  Travis gathers donations from local businesses and people in the church and we have a silent and oral auction.  There were a wide variety of items on the silent auction...decorations, jewelry, homemade baked goods, a pool table, TV's and a refrigerator.  The oral auction has lots of fun stuff put together in packages as well as some bigger items...a quilt, hand crafted rocking horse, an IPOD Touch, a golf package, an airplane ride, and many homemade meals.  We served homemade ice cream and cake/brownies.  Travis counted last night and this is the eigth auction he has done.  We did 4 at our first church, 2 at our last church and this is the 2nd one here.  It's always a lot of fun!

Travis' dad was an auctioneer, so Travis went to lots of auctions growing up.  He's not a professional and I know I'm biased, but I think he does pretty good!  And check out the callers, Todd and Adam.  They really get into it and were hilarious to watch!
