Goodbye Trailer




We have been trying to sell our horse trailer for a few months now. Back in July I posted the trailer on a few websites and when I got phone calls about it I have to admit I wasn't ready to sell. I guess I just know how much fun my little boys have in that trailer. Well all the ads expired and I didn't renew them. Last week Gavin and I decided that it was best for us to sell it, and this time I was ready to let go. I told Gavin I am going to post the ads and by the end of the week the trailer will be gone! He didn't believe me, but low and behold it happened. (Just goes to show if you pay your tithing, attend the temple and have faith, the Lord will bless you.) It was crazy this time when I posted it on the website I had a bunch of emails asking me questions about it. 

Friday night I got a phone call at about 6:00 pm from a mother and her daughter. They were super excited about the trailer and I knew they were going to buy it. They wanted to leave there home in Phoenix at 3:00 am and pick it up on Saturday morning, but the bank wasn't open on Saturday so they came Sunday and drove back Monday morning. Gavin and I got it all cleaned up and ready over the weekend for them. They turned out to be the really nice people. I am so happy our trailer is going to have a good home where someone will use it and take care of it. 

Gavin wasn't as excited to sell it as I was, but he knew it was the right thing to do. With the economy being so unstable, we are trying to follow the prophet and get out of debt the best we can. I feel a huge burden lifted off my shoulders and I know Gavin does too. 

The picture above is the May family, Grandma, Mom, Barrel racer (who the trailer is for),  Cha Cha (4 year old that turned into Preston's friend) and the dog Zoey (is in the truck). It turned out to be a long trip home for them, there truck wasn't running the best so they didn't get back to Phoenix until Midnight. They wrote me a note this morning and said they love the trailer and loved spending a the short time they did with us. We loved them too. Isn't it funny how everything works out.
