The Saunders Family....

Yesterday my friend Linn lost her home to a fire. Her family is an amazing family who demostrates God's heart each and everyday in their daily life. My heart is so heavy for their loss. Thankfully no one was hurt in the fire physically, but I cannot imagine what it must be like to no longer have a home...in the course of a few hours watch your house and all it's contents go up in smoke. All the kids and Linn had to leave in such a hurry in their pajamas....I am applying their family for X-treme Make Over Home addition and if you are led I ask that you do the same....I made a video to introduce them to you.

Please mute/pause my music player before you watch the video so you can hear the music on the video.

Hi Snyder Family! I'm aslo a snyder born and raised in kansas as well! I'm now stationed here with my Air Force Hubby in SC and i just wanted to let you know that i too will be submitting an application to EHM for the Saunders family. Your video absolutely moved me to tears and i want to do whatever possible to help. I even have an aunt who works with MTV who is looking into speaking with some people she knows at ABC to get the ball rolling! Keep up with the updates!

In Christ,

Brittne Snyder

Hi Snyder family! You don't know me but I have followed your journey to Creighton and I also follow the Saunders blog. I was so sorry to hear about this tragedy. HOwever, I do want to let you know that the video you made moved me to tears. I truly hope that this is what you are using to submit it to ABC. I will also do an application. Thanks so much for taking the time to do the video.

Faithfully praying,

Awesome job Snyder Family! Thanks for taking the time to bless this precious family. The photos show the tender love for their family and they still have more to share with the multitudes. Let's do it; build that house!!!

The video is beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing, and for petitioning ABC on Linn and Dwight's behalf. Is there anyway that you can get the video posted on the new blog for all to see?

Blessings to you ~
