A family in Sabine Pass finally has a place to call home after the hurricane.

 And we're not talking about Hurricane Ike, we're talking about Hurricane Rita.

 Four years after the fact, the Jackson family has the keys to a new home paid for by a 12 million dollar federal program.

 This is a walk to remember for Dianne and William Jackson.

 They finally have a place to call their own... it's been four years since Hurricane Rita destroyed their Sabine Pass home.

 "It was like you could get to where you'd almost touch it and someone would jerk it back," said Dianne Jackson.

 But it's official...the Jacksons have the paperwork and the keys to their new home.

 "Today is such a joyful day," said Jackson.

 The Jacksons are especially excited about their full size bathroom and bedroom.

 "His feet have been hanging off the bed.  It's unbelievable what you have to go through," said Jackson.

 But those obstacles the Jacksons faced after Hurricane Rita have ended.

 "It's great, it's a great feeling.  They've been without a home for a while, it's good to know they can get closure;" said Ezra Lyon.

 Ezra Lyon is one of the contractors hired by the federal government to complete the Sabine Pass recovery program.

 The 800 square foot modular home is 16 feet above ground with double pain insulated windows and can withstand winds up to 140 miles per hour.

 Would you say this home would withstand an Ike or a Rita? "Absolutely it's rated for about 140 mph," said Lyon.

 "Just everybody hang in there because it is going to happen we're one of the first and there's a few of us out here and your turns coming," said Jackson.

 And somehow the people of Sabine Pass have been patient, even after four years and another hurricane.

 The federal government has hired 9 contractors to complete 28 hundred homes in Southeast Texas.

 The type of home you lived in before the storm determines the type of home you'll be getting.
