EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION has finally arrived!!!

The EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION Pep Rally was AWESOME today!!!
(Video below)

There are still a lot of needs left to be filled.

Please check out the links and see what you can donate, volunteer and/or who you know that may have the skills necessary to make this build the best one yet! I called my brother since he's an expert carpenter. We all know someone who has talent. Let's bring them onboard. The rumor is that Kemah is the city, but it could also be Seabrook. Right in my backyard! w00t!!!

There will be a FOOD DRIVE. The producer said Buffalo, NY collected 95 tons of food. We all know that everything is bigger and better in TEXAS so ya'll give from your big hearts and gather the troops and let's show everyone what we can do! Get the community involved. Ask your kids schools to help. Talk to your job. Create contests. Create excitement! The producer said if everyone simply donated ONE canned food item, it would be enough. Together we can do this!!!

There will also be a blood drive so if you can give, please plan on it. Details forthcoming. They are also asking for cash donations to help pay off the family's mortgage. This show relies totally on the COMMUNITY to do these things... not ABC.

The links to sign up to volunteer and donate are below. And if/when you're on break during your volunteer time, come by the food tent and say, "Hi!" to me!!! I'm working every day.

The Blu Shields Extreme Team is an inspiration. Blu and Pat, owners, took all of their savings after Ike and have helped family after family rebuild their homes and their lives.
They have asked only two things when giving to others:
1) Don't tell anyone who helped; and
2) When those on the receiving end are able, pay it forward.

It is an honor not only work with the Blu Shields family but also to be able to help another deserving family devastated from Hurricane Ike. So many were affected. Finally, we can give back some of what we have been given. We are all blessed to have this opportunity. In return, our community is going to be blessed beyond our own realizations.

Just wait and see... this was meant to be.
