NICE collection of *snappies*, Kimmy!

They should have put you behind one of the BIG cameras!

PS: Who was the *SCREAMER* in the videos?

Oh Kimmy, I am jealous, jealous, jealous!!!

That show always reduces me to tears - well, a good cry is good for you NO??

Thank you for volunteering - I am so happy you had a great experience.

And THANK YOU for sharing so many pictures. I loved the architectural drawings and I will be anxious to see the show and look for you!!

Wow Kimmy! How cool is that!!! Amazing story, photos, house and everything. Ty is one of my favoritese (hunk, hunk, hunk!!!) and that show, although I've only seen it a few times, always makes me cry. Thanks SOOOOO much for sharing this awesome experience with us!

I have to add my thanks as well. I absolutely love that show and I am also always reduced to tears.

I joke that I have a "thing" for Ty, but Ed is my all time favorite. I am so glad to see him back after almost...um...removing his hand a few seasons back.

I found out yesterday that they are looking for volunteers for a build here in Pittsburgh too.....I would love to do that but can't take the time off from my regular job

You're welcome.

Glad you guys enjoy.

The show always makes me cry too.

Trinity, the Pittsburgh house they're working on is right in my neighborhood! I can see the lights from where they're filming almost from my house. The house is in Penn Hills about maybe ten houses down from mine.

I watch that show whenever I can catch it. What an awesome thing to do!! Am I the only one who think Ty is cute? Seriously, I think I am.

Anyway, that's so cool you got to meet the crew. Great stuff! I hope that family enjoys their new home. Do you know their story of why they were on the show?

Oh man... I am in tears just looking at the pictures. That show NEVER fails to give me a good cry.

it warms my heart that so many people are there to help out a community member in needs. I wish ALL communities were like this... the world would be a better place.

just curious... how did you get to volunteer? how did you find out about it. i would love to do something like that for someone else.

I am so impressed! What a wonderful, heartwarming experience!
The EM team was around Philadelphia last year, I think, and I've passed the house.

I have a thing for Ed. Man, when he cut his hand (memories) I panicked. Maybe it's the accent. Whatever, I think he has the sweetest personality.

The pictures are great, Kimmie! And you look terrific in short hair, if I hadn't already mentioned it!

Oh my Gosh!!!!!!! I love this show!!!!!!! I watch it faithfully, you are so lucky!!! Ok all jealousy aside..lol I think it is wonderful you had the chance to volunteer like that, I always cry and I always am in awe at all the people that come out to help a total stranger, it reminds me of what this country is all about. thanks for all the photos.
