It looks like April’s great crafty skills has helped the Indiana McIntosh family win the 1st McIntosh Holiday Challenge.
Congratulations to the McIntosh family of Markle, Indiana, as the winners of the 1st McIntosh Holiday Challenge!


Great job, April! I know how much you disliked the putting the icing on and the fact that you wouldn’t let me bloody the horses head and have the other animals eating it.
Well, our Christmas holiday is wrapping up and we are working on retiring the old stuff (clothes and toys) and moving the new toys/clothes into the rotation.
Other than the snowy and cold weather, our holiday was a good one. Ella wanted nothing to do with unwrapping presents, but loved pulling socks from the stockings. Ean, on the other hand, loves opening presents so much so that he was unwrapping his presents and not waiting for anyone to watch him.
We still owe a couple of gifts and should get them out hopefully by the beginning of the new year.
I hope everyone had a great holiday as well.
While there is not a creature stirring in the house, we wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and safe holidays!

Thought that I would try and get everyone into the mood.
Although a bit chilly, Halloween was fun this year.
Ean the Vampire and Ella the Gator cheerleader!!
Here are the photos from Hallow’s Eve.
I was going through my phone pictures and saw that I had some decent shots of the Bluffton fireworks.








It’s been a busy end of year.
Here is the slide show of the pictures from Christmas 2008 with multiple families involved.
I hope everyone is having a good new year. We are making preparations for Ella’s birthday party now.
