In the first week of the swap, Susan discovers the Vaughn home is spotless and realizes how lonely each day is spent cleaning and tidying up a large home. Beth is freaked out by all the odd statues and decorations in her new temporary home.
This is not the first time a local mom has been swapped on the show. Back in 2006, local boxer Jenifer Alcorn was selected to appear on the reality television series.
