EVERYTHING BLENDS IN PERFECT HARMONY ON ABC'S "EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION," AS AWARD-WINNING SINGER LEANN RIMES WELCOMES THE MUSIC-LOVING COX FAMILY BACK TO THEIR BRAND NEW HOME

"Cox Family" - For years John Cox traveled worldwide to help churches and organizations. Meanwhile, to support her dedicated husband's endeavors, his wife, Wendy, quit her job as a nurse to stay at home and care for their three young daughters. When he received a permanent position as a youth minister, John was able to buy his family their very first home. Now their humble abode in Simi Valley, California, has received a complete renovation and been transformed into a real dream house, courtesy of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," airing TUESDAY, AUGUST 17 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network. (Rebroadcast. OAD: 2/22/04)

In addition to the many changes to their home, the Cox family, who enjoy inspirational music and sing together whenever they get the chance, were amazed when award-winning singer LeAnn Rimes greeted them with a musical surprise as they returned to their totally renovated home.
