Well I just finished watching the Duggers show and all I can say is I am jealous of how happy they all are. They are such a wonderful family. They deserve all the good things they get. And that house is just beautiful.
Yes, the house is georgous. HGTV and all the sponsors did put on a good job providing what ever they did (I'm sure that piano was one of their gifts). I just have to comment about the food. I live in the midwest and its hard to get fresh any thing out here. When I first moved out here and had my first couple dinners with my Grandmother in law almost every thing came out of a can or a package (minus the meat of course). The midwest appetite is very different (it is slowly chaning- hey we have Qdoba now and that's a big step up!). Being in AK as they are I'm sure they're in a rural area and need to stock up (as shown as they were shopping at ALDI foods). The midwest diet is very vanilla. Our pastor who grew up in Michigan won't eat too many things that aren't a brown, vanilla, or orange color.
I love kids, but I don't want so many that I can't pay attention to them. I feel guilty enough that I don't spend enough time with any of them and I only have three. That's what I don't understand about the Duggers, yes kids are blessings from God, but c'mon. There's a very fine balance going on there. That I don't even like to entertain. I'm glad they live debt free and have enough money to have a 15 passenger van and a modern mini bus.
I'm glad the Duggers got the help on the house that they did b/c they need all the help they can get. I sure wish I could get one of those 3 minute dishwashing machines! The expense of showing America where and who you are that's a tough topic too.
This show was less religious as the first one was. The first one they showed them having their home bible study, singing a hymn, I think it even showed them praying. This time around they only showed them playing Amazing Grace around their new piano.
Well, there's my two cents on the newest Dugger show. I feel safer posting here than on the Dugger thread on the Comm board.
I did think it was weird that they bought the 20 acres just in case some of the kids wanted to live near by. You are supposed to leave (your parents) and cleave (to your spouse) and have your own family.
Feel free to comment.
