It'a a wrap!




Some of you know that our family has recently been involved in the filming of a US television show called House Hunters International.  It is a program aired on HGTV, a cable or satellite channel that features home and garden programs.  This particular show follows families or individuals as they move abroad and try to find a home.  They highlight both the real estate market at the destination as well as try to highlight the city itself.  It is described as a combination travel and real estate program.  They came and filmed us in Memphis/Collierville to document our "backstory", home, and daily life there, then came to Germany and followed us while house hunting here too.  They also came recently and filmed the home that we chose and a few snippets of our new life here.  It has been a fun and fascinating process to be a part of and we have loved the crews that we worked with!  As of now, according to our producer, it is a "wrap"!  We are hoping the 50 million tapes will go to edit now and have been told to anticipate a spring airing of the episode.  Unfortunately, the airline lost a key piece of luggage containing camera lights and batteries so the poor crew had to scramble to come up with some substitutions for about 3 days of filming and wound up having to film us for more days here an originally anticipated.  We are hoping those days will not have to be reshot, but should know something more definite soon.  Anyway, the boys have found new potential careers that they are now interested in and we found more friends abroad.  We are so grateful for the experience!
