Extreme Makeover – Home Edition

(468x60.php)

I just love that show.  I watch the reruns on TVLand every weekday.  No matter how many shows they do and I watch, I usually end up crying when they say “MOVE THAT BUS” and I see the families reaction.

I love that they help deserving families and I am just amazed that they can finish these houses in 7 days.  I mean these houses are huge, usually, and very detailed and filled with beautiful furniture.

They usually help people who have experienced a natural disaster or have a disability or a life threatening disease and they have an unsafe home.

Yesterday I watched a show where the girl had a blood transfusion and hasn’t been able to live in her mold ridden house in 10 months.  They built them a safe, clean home to come home to.

They also helped a family with a son that has cerebral palsy.  This boy was kicked off his baseball team because they thought he was too much of a health risk.  The mother took that opportunity to start a baseball team for children with disabilities.

At the age of 14 (the show aired 3 yrs ago) he was moved to a larger wheelchair which kept him from maneuvering around his house as well as he would like to.

Ty and the team came in and gave this family the home of their dreams.

I just think they do such a good thing for families in need, just like Habitat for Humanity does.  I would love to volunteer my help to Habitat for Humanity.  I don’t have the money to be able to donate to charities or anything and not that I have any skills to build a home..LOL! But I would just love to help.

A little bit about my family:
I am a SAHM of 4 wonderful children and I have the most amazing boyfriend! I am trying to get my online business up and running. Paper crafts and scrapbooking is what I love to do in my free time (when I get some, 4 kids keep me busy) and to try and turn my hobby into a way to make money so I can stay home with my kids that would be wonderful. If you are in to paper crafting and scrapbooking or know someone that is please check out my online store: Artfuldelight.com. Nicki, Tony, Isabel and Max are the joy in my life, I love being home with them but sometimes money can be tight. Hopefully I can have some success with this store.
