No. All the hoopla about Extreme Home Makeover being in Lawrence/Kansas City, KS is, sadly, NOT for us. :-(
We have the application 99% finished - just need my husband to get the measurements of our lot. Then, early next week, when my teenage son, David, is not doing BOTH marching band and 7 hours a day of rehearsing for a Summer Youth Theater production of "West Side Story", he will be able to be a part of the video we have to make. He is extremely talented and animated, so we thought he would be just the right person to give the "tour of the house" that is required.
However, this production shindig is affecting Crossroads' in a way. Erica and her family have been living at the Hampton Inn since her mastiff, Marla, set her house on fire. Well, the production team of Extreme Home Makeover bought out the Hampton, and Erica has to move her family to a different hotel until they are done cleaning and repairing her house. Justice (great dane in rescue) has been adopted, but remains in boarding until her adoptive family gets back from vacation next weekend. She is doing great at day care and healed nicely from her spay surgery.
Lawrence Landscape, from just down the street from our house, will be doing the landscaping for the project. Here is the link in the Lawrence Journal-World.
If you are interested in volunteering for the Extreme Home Makeover project, here is the link to their volunteer page: Join Extreme
So let's make this a good experience for those involved in the production so they will want to come back to Lawrence SOON for US!!
