For those of you that don't know the story, my cousin, who was my age (28), died of leukemia in August, leaving behind a husband & 3 very little boys.
Her story...

Well, Johnny- her husband, my aunt Janet & Uncle Ray got a knock on the door today by Ty Pennington from abc's Extreme Makeover Home Edition...
THEY WON an EXTREME HOME MAKEOVER!!!!!!!!!!

I am shaking & still in shock!!!
Through this horrible tragedy, comes something good.

PS- I've known about this for a while now, but couldn't say a word. I was dying to tell all of you!!!!!

ETA- On Friday, I'll be having an 'Extreme Massage Team' at the site & massaging all the hard workers!!!!
(Hope Ty wants one)

So it is the Saint James house?? Like I posted in another thread ... where the detour is on Lake, there are tons of people walking down there with their cameras.

This is really exciting and wonderful for your family!
