Other than that, what a big house for being the first house you buy. Many others have started out with a lot smaller house (Carlin, Zac, Jessa, Alyssa e.g.). Or an RV. The layout is not the kind we have where I live, but I could live with it. 

The perk of marrying an established, older guy with a work history  instead of a horny, barely out of their teens years guy employed by daddy.

Well...He could marry an established, mature woman with a work history if only she wasn't trapped in duggarland. 

But for now lets see how it goes as long as they want to share part of their lifes with public. I like the house makovers and im pretty sure they have majority of the upgrade done already

I live in the cellar (my brother always jokes that he keeps his sister in the cellar)Bedroom and bathroom only have very little daylight (a sort of underground windowsill with an opening going up to ground level (that must have a name, but I don't know it) But my living-room and kitchen have big patio doors  leading out to a patio with steps leading up to the garden. 

 Being half underground, but having an "escape" to the outside does make me feel really safe.

Sounds like a cozy burrow!

It seems very old fashioned to me.  It's the same layout almost exactly as my grandmother's old house.  I'm guessing it was to have more livable space with little to none devoted to hallways.

Yes!  My grandmother's house had 2 bedrooms off the living room area with the kitchen and bathroom beyond that.

The Dillards' first house had 3 BR off the living room. I can't recall where the bathroom was, but it must have shared a wall with the kitchen. 

[Coconut Flan]

I think IIRC it was one bedroom directly off the living room and two off a very short hall with the bathroom was between them.  The master bedroom was behind the garage.

I wonder what it felt like for Jill to be left out of the wedding party.

Here is Jinger’s wedding pic dump. I’ll include the non wedding ones too. I should put them in her thread but I’m sitting in my car uploading them before going into work. So to be faster I’ll do them here. It kind of looks like they made Jenni and Josie junior bridesmaids.

Wow, Josie is really starting to look like Michelle.

I think she looks like Justin.

I spy "Mr. Jim," the sound guy. 

[Coconut Flan]

I think Josie has looked like Michelle since infancy.  I'm not sure if it's her eyes, but something has always called it out to me.

I think Michelle said a long time ago that Josie looked the most like her.

It seems to me that Jinger and Michelle look tense together. Michelle usually makes sure to look extra extra sweet and happy. And there is no such thing here. She hardly even smiles. (That would be a nothingburger with most people, obviously, but not with Michelle. IMO.)

Yes, I’ve always thought she looked like Michelle. 

She looks so much prettier in the photo without (or little) makeup.

All the Duggar daughters have so much make up caked on in these wedding pictures, Jana included. I think it looks really fake and plastic-y. Jana doesn’t even look like herself, she looks really generic, a bit like a stock photo. More power to them if they like the look, but I like natural looks a lot better.

What I find interesting is that in all the selfie and group pics that the Duggar kids have posted (not including Jana), none of them posted a picture of themselves with JB.

Or Anna who we know was there.

that one photo makes it seem like Jenni and Josie were the flower girl wranglers, lol. two teenagers and 10 tiny girls....i forget, have we seen pics of a whole gaggle of little ring bearers from this wedding?

Such a sharp contrast between the closeness of Jinger with the J boy in the last picture (pressing their heads together) and the distance between Jinger and Michelle. 

[JermajestyDuggar]

Jenny and Hannie went with all the Wissmanns to the festival that the Wissmanns perform at every year. I’m glad Jenny and Hannie are allowed to hang out with all the Wissmanns. I know they are just as fundie as the Duggars. But I always wonder how much the youngest girls get to socialize. I feel like the Duggars socialized a lot when almost all the kids were at home and they were filming. I imagine JB and Michelle socialize a bit less now that they don’t have a film crew and only have like 5 kids regularly in the house.

Joe... I remember the episode when they were picking him up from Alert and Jinger was so anxious and happy to see him. Similar to getting a sib from boot camp, but crazyville 😁

Joe is only 13 months younger than Jinger so they’ve probably always been close. 

Michelle had Jessa Jinger and Joe in rapid succession. Each 13 months apart. Not all of her pregnancies were that close.
