The Powell family in Davis, CA beat out decked out homes across the country to win Patch's Deck the House contest this month. The grand prize of $100,000 will go to the Davis school district to use as it chooses. The contest invited Patch readers across the country to submit photos of their or their neighbors decorated homes. Readers voted on a winner from each Patch.
