Will cheering, "MOVE THAT BUS!"(The cameras zoomed in on him while he was up high on shoulders- we'll see if he makes the show!)
The Carrs walking into their new home!
(They had to do the big walk in several times- it was quite funny as they would head in only to be told it had to be redone & head out again!)
Ty & the Carrs - about to head into their new home
The Carrs are such a deserving family for this home - they are generous to their community & active in giving back. They have 4 adopted children - 3 of whom have special needs. The 2 youngest have limb differences - one is a triple amputee due to Amniotic Band Syndrome & the youngest, Will's little friend, Rina, is missing 1 leg due to ABS. Mike (the dad) is a cancer survivor & had childhood diabetes- he has had 2 organ transplants (kidney & pancreas) which means he has to take immuno-suppressant drugs. Their previous home was not good for his health & was not completely accessible for all of their children. It was also a fire hazard. They went from a 3 bedroom/1 bath, 1500 sq foot home to a 4 bedroom/3 bath 4800 sq foot home! It's very functional & has some neat aspects. I know the Carr family will continue using the home to give back!
This was right after they Moved the Bus (finally!!!)
Johnny (in the cowboy hat), Ed, & Bill Engvall with Ryanne in the middle
The Carrs after they got out of the limo - & before the bus was moved

It was so fun to be a part of such an exciting week!

The final & actual moving of the bus!
(Excuse the sometimes wobbly camera- I was holding my little video camera while also trying to take still pics with my other camera!)
The show will air as the season finale - May 9 - on ABC!
