Hi everyone! Something really cool is happening in our life right now. I won't get in to all the details, but if you read my blog you know that our two little boys have some pretty significant disabilities. Our farmhouse is 900 square feet and 111 years old-I love it, but it is not equipped for two wheelchairs and all the other equipment and accessories that we have to use. SO...the boys' physical therapist has nominated us for Extreme Makeover Home Edition, which the chances of us getting is probably like winning the lottery...but who knows we might be able to do this for these amazing little guys that I am so blessed to call my own... It would be nice to represent our little farmgirl community and show that you don't need a 3000 square foot house. My dream house is a simple farmhouse with a porch and a barn...sigh...BUT even if we aren't chosen, the support and love that people have shown has been the greatest gift!




If you have a minute and are so inclined...please visit the event page on Facebook that the physical therapist set up and click to attend (there's no real event, just a request to send an email).

If you don't have facebook, you can just skip that part and send an email in the boys' support (Topic line-Pick the Twombly Family) to castingbangor@gmail.com


Thanks so much!
Lisa

Hi Lisa. I saw this on your blog so I will try to go vote for you. Isn't that exciting? I SO hope you get the call. We just had them here last month building a house. I got to volunteer for a shift. I think it must have been the slowest time to do it because I only got to do one little thing. But it was fun to see all the things that went on and how fast it got done. I watched the roof being put on then the shingles. Very interseting. So I will vote and hope that you get chosen. Your boys are so adorably cute I can hardly stand it. Good luck!!

Kris
