ABC’s Extreme Makeover Home Edition celebrates its 100th episode in Minnetonka, Minnesota with a two-hour special featuring the return of some of the show’s most memorable families. Eight families from previous builds worked as special volunteers, along with TY PENNINGTON and the “Extreme Makeover Home Edition” team to build a home for the newly formed SWENSON-LEE family of 10. The family featured in the 100th episode is the Swenson-Lee family. In a nutshell, Erik and Vicki Swenson, coaches and parents of three (plus one on the way), took under their roof the four children of Vicki’s sister. It was tragedy that brought the family together. TERI LEE, a mother of four, was murdered by her ex-boyfriend, leaving her children orphans, as their father had been killed in a car accident in 2001. VICKI and ERIK SWENSON-LEE, both teachers and parents of three children of their own and another on the way, invited their nieces and nephews to live with them. Vicki was Teri’s sister. “They moved in with us just traumatized,” a tearful Vicki relates. “The horror and the grief that you see these kids go through; it’s so unfair. They left their school, their friends and literally within a 24-hour period had to start over with a brand-new life.”

it doesn’t really matter who you are or where you live. If you’re human and has ever met any other human being you’ll be touched by the stories of the families. What they do is incledible!
Thank you again! …
Thank you again! But I understand some of them are indeed carpenters by trade, right? Like Ty and Paige. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer me. My daughters and I have become totally addicted to the show. We watch it here in Brazil and absolutely love it. I like the fact that they watch it because they are both Americans and I think this show is all about what makes us proud of America. Heck I am Brazilian and I get all teary eyed over it.
It is a design TEAM …
It is a design TEAM. They are responsible to DESIGN what is in the families needs and likes. A local construction company and volunteers are doing majority of the work. Nobody on the design team is a PLUMMER, ELECTRICIAN, or CONTRACTOR. MAJORITY of the hard work is done by people you never hear about. STILL the show is awesome….and people are being helped.
Thank you so much …
Thank you so much for your answer. Do you mind helping me with something else that bugs me? Does the design team actually do any work or do they just show up and look cute? I love them no matter what, I have to tell you - they seem so compassionate and caring. And Ty, he’s the man!
is there a way that …
is there a way that they can remake a school?
If so how do you sighn up because i cannot figure it out.
Good question.
The …
Good question.
The family that is chosen, is informed that there is another family in the state that has made the final cut on who is going to get the makeover. ABC pretends that there was another family and that the family should be prepared because you never know who might pop-up with GOOD MORNING …… Family.
