At Home with Laurie Ann is hosting the “Always Ready, Always Faithful, Always Courageous” living-room makeover contest to thank military personnel for their service by supporting their families. Store owner and author Laurie Ann McMillin Ray will give all four finalists families a copy of her book, “At Home with Laurie Ann – A Decorator’s Guide: Turn the Place You Live Into the Home You Love,” but only one of the four families will be awarded the makeover. Alhough the contest originally called for only three finalists, McMillin Ray said she was hard-pressed to whittle down the list to three The Marine Corps finalists include Capt. Jason Actis’ family in Oceanside, Sgt. Daniel Myrick’s family in Fallbrook, and Lance Cpl. Justine Wallaces’ family in National City. The Navy finalist is Chief Warrant Officer Danny Jones’ family in Chula Vista. For more information, visit www.laurieann.com.
