So this is Extreme Makeover: Home Edition's 100th episode. Which means, this is their 100th family that they have helped. Which is AMAZING of them to be doing!!

This episode is really heart renching and sad!

It's a family of (soon-to-be) 10 people. The 'mother' Vicki and her husband have 3 children and are expecting another one, they also are taking care and raising her sister's 4 children. Vicki's sister was killed by an ex-boyfriend. And the father of the children was killed in a car accident prior to the mother's murder.

The application video was really, really sad...I for one, didn't make it through watching it without bawling my eyes out. Vicki's oldest niece was with her father in the truck during the accident, and got out safe...she was also sleeping in the same house as her mother was she was shot. Not only was the mother killed, but her boyfriend was also killed.

Such a sad sad story!!!!!

I watched it too. That is my favorite show to watch because of the good that they do. Last night's episode made me cry so much...it even brought tears to DH's eyes and he hardly ever (almost never) cries. It was an amazing episode.
