Emilee

Emilee I thought I had your email but I guess I dont. So here is a picture of that advent calendar. It's not a real good one but gives you an idea. Thanks kyla

Holy crap!!

Last night Ron went outside to feed the dogs and came in the house yelling for me and running around looking for things. I followed him outside and about died. A pipe had broke and the ground was puddling with water and sinking and it was happening under our camp trailer. We decided we had to just hook the truck to the trailer and try to pull it out and pray it wouldn't sink. Ron made me try to back the truck up and It started to sink on one side a little and Ron was yelling for me to just back up and I was scared so I was panicking. so I jumped out and said i will go find a man to help who knows what he is doing . I ran up the street to the neighbors and now one was home. went to the next no one was home and to the next and no one was home and so I started back home to call another one and and he came right over. They backed the truck up and hooked up the trailer and started to pull. Me and all the kids were in lainees bedroom watching out the window praying that it would not sink. The went slow and eased it out. The trailer went down a little on one side but it luckily came back out and all was well.

The Front jack thing was not even on the wood because the trailer had sunk so far down in the back.

You can see the sink hole under the trailer.It was closer to the tires than it looks.

This was after we had pulled it out you can see on the left side where the tires sunk down.

This was a relief when it was on safe ground.

They had to put logs in the hole that the tuck was sinking in.

Today Ron has started to dig it out to find the leak.

It's getting muddy but no leak yet.

This is my yard now Ron had to go to a meeting at work and then come back and finish. In the mean time I have no water. My dishes are piled up because I could not do my dinner dishes last night (no water). and we cant flush the toilets. I will be glad when it's done but I wont complain because it could be a lot worse. My trailer could be buried there.

Happy Birthday Sis!

Stephanie's Birthday is on Thursday Oct 2ND. So I wanted to take a min. to wish her a very happy birthday. As I laid in bed the smornin I thought back to what brought us to be sisters. We were born that way but what makes us feel that way in every sense of the word. When we were little we shared a room together we drove each other crazy. Of course with steph being five years older she had the upper hand. I would decorate my side of the room and she would tear them down. I would wear her clothes thinking I could hang them back up and she would never know. She could always smell that I had worn them and the fury would hit. In bed my big toe would cross the line and she would kick me as hard as she could . It was always my turn to shut of the light and then she would terrorize me all the way back to bed with goblins chasing me. There were also laughs like rootie and fruity. And the time we rigged the hanger and strings to shut the light off because either I refused or you started to feel guilty.
When we got older we Became best friends. We laughed together. We cried together. and we had way more fun than we should have. We told each other secrets and always knew no matter what happened we had each other. you even started letting me borrow your clothes.
Then we became wives and mothers. We shared weddings and watched the births of each others children never missing one of each others. We shared funny stories about our children and heart aches and worries when they come. We share our lives we always have and that journey is what has brought us to be sisters not just by birth right but by friendship and love.
So on this your day I wish a very happy birthday to my sister. I love you so very much. And I look forward to many more.

Ode to Joy!

The Hunting Season is over!!! (at lest it better be)I am so thankful Ron is done hunting and I survived it. I know how much he loves it so I try really hard to support him in it.( I think i will find a new hobby I love that much and that requires as much time and see if the support is reciprocated.) I am glad the hunts are over but I am also glad that the MacIntosh's had such a a great year. Ron got too hunt with Wayne for the bow hunt and their dad drew a black powder tag and they got to hunt with him. I think it was an extra special year for Ron because so much of his hunting was done with his family. It was also a great year of bucks for all three of them and I am really proud of them all.

Wayne,Dale,and Ron with dale's deer.

Dale with his 24" 4x4. This is a great buck congrats dale.

My sexy hunter with his deer. I love you baby!!

Wayne with his great 4x4.

Congrats to all three of you on your great bucks.

Just being goofy

Ron came home early from hunting yesterday and wanted to go to lunch. So me and the girls got ready and waited for him to shower. The girls seen the camera and wanted me to take some pictures of them. They are not camera shy that is for sure they have me take a picture and then they race to the camera to look at it. I thought I would try to get some cute ones since we were dressed up but my camera died about 5 min. into the fun.


Preslie getting too close

The girls in the kitchen. They kept running to different walls for the shots.

Lainee wanted one with her arms out. I don't know why?

Preslie gets more serious when it's her turn she stands there and says eeeese.

Lainee on the other hand wants pictures of her being silly. and says hot dog!


I thought this one was really cute

This is a cute one of lainee. If she would just smile for real.



OHhh well it was fun and we all laughed. The things that entertain us!!

Other video!!

This is the first video. It wouldn't post on the other one so I redid it. So read the post before this one and then watch this .

Labor Day

We went camping for labor day weekend and steph and Clint and Dallas and Emilee joined us and derrick. It was quite a crew and quite a weekend. We had alot of fun. The kids played and played and played. We all had decided to leave the wheelers at home so the kids had to make use of their time by actually playing and playing together. I thought they had a better time with out the bikes.



Preslie and Dora. They went everywhere together. But Sunday night Dora had to sleep outside because preslie feed her to much of stephs orange jello salad and she was a mess.


Two peas in a pod! Lainee and MaKyndie went everywhere together. And they always had a cup of Hot Chocolate in their hands it was really cute.


Tanner and Westyn playing tucks.


Stetson and Brayson playing trucks.


Saturday night the skies opened up and it dumped. We all huddled under the canopies in blankets and watched it storm.

The following is two videos of the kids the first in kinda long and the kids are being silly they are pretending to be ancient Indians. They built a tepee a few years ago at our camp site and it has survived. With all the cousins they turned their tepee into a mansion tepee. It has little ones inside the big ones and they all have separate rooms. It is really quite neat. The video doesn't do it justice.

The second one. the kids have a tree named #3. They always talk about it and say they are going to play on #3 but we don't pay much attention. Until this time we were sitting at the trailers and we could see shan's head bobbing up and down over the trailer. I went to tell him to get down right now before he broke his neck and ended up laughing so hard when I seen them that I went back for my camera. They were riding that thing and it was flying. I swear where do they thing these things up.

It was a really fun weekend and I can't wait to do it again next year.
