Over the weekend, Extreme Makeover Home Edition televised the episode that took place in our town. I love what this show does! They choose a needy family and while working around the clock for about a week, build them a home.
They were in town filming back in January and my friend, Rebecca had the idea for us to go and take a look at the action. I am so glad we did! It was great fun seeing it all happen...the building, the filming and all the volunteers coming together to help this needy family. If I would have known in advance, I would have volunteered as well. Actually, Rebecca tried to volunteer but I guess they ended up receiving far more volunteers than they needed which is awesome!
Rebecca & I doing some gawking. Rebecca actually went back on another day and could be seen in the crowd with the Super Nanny on the show the other night. :)
Some walls going up.
Here are some of the show regulars doing some taping. Unfortunately, none of this made it into the final product. But it was still fun to watch!
Ty Pennington talking to the family. This did make it into the show! :)
Our friends, Jim & Stacy who were part of the more than 1,500 volunteers.
This is the back of Jim's shirt which if you notice was signed by Ty Pennington's butt double. Funny stuff...
Some volunteers including Jim unloading wood that Jim helped treat.
