  1. Wedding attire:

    Beautiful wedding dress and wedding!  It was the first not crappy looking wedding!

    Christine looked amazing!

    I thought the hats on Janelle and Robyn looked good!

    Kody in the mini kilt actually didn’t look as bad as he normally does!

    Meri’s hair looked BAD!  It looked so unkempt.  But she probably expected it to be like Freezing outdoor fake flower disaster or hipster hoedown wedding where her “rolled out of bed look” would have fit right in!

  2. I just started watching...but 6800 square feet?  7 bedrooms?  

    Christine buys another house? 

    And also why are all the wives are just on their own renting or renting?  They are all kind of doh f this on their own...

    A bank may tell you this is a "normal" mortgage because it maximizes their profit, but it costs the buyer more in the long run. It may be common in Arizona, but not where I lie in Canada; we pay our interest-free property taxes directly to the city monthly by direct debit.

    I live in NC & no bank I know of allows you to get a mortgage anymore without paying escrow to the bank.  None!  

    This happened after the 2008 financial crises.

  4. Lawd I forgot all about Christines solo last wedding... let’s just not do that again.

    At least this wedding is not in 40 degeee weather with fake flowers that cost more than real flowers.

    And Kody isnt officiating this one either.

    Cant wait to hear how stressful this move is that HAS TO HAPPEN just cause

    AZ has open districts, so they could open  enroll at a different school to all be at the same school if they so choose. However, It also not uncommon to have kids from the same family at different schools. Some have specialized programs that may fit one kid better than others and there are a bunch of charters. 

    Interesting!  I could totally understand if some of the kids got into a charter type school. 

    None of the adults  have seen educated to me but they clearly all (well except Christine) seem to value education.  Ive always assumed Christine and Robyn were homeschooled based on their families and the secret nature of their upbringing 

  6. Good grief at this episode.

    With the amount of gas spent going back and forth to AZ for all these trips and with all these cars, they could have paid for an extra mortgage.

    Kody gets the property and then starts whining about missing his kids due to rentals, moving away from Axel, and all the work.  So stupid...he is doing this all himself.  Nobody is forcing him into this, there is no real reason to do this.

    & how much money realistically is adding gas and water/sewer lines for his area or maybe it’s well water?  

    Meri is being financially smart for once.  Now that she’s making money via leggings, I think she understands how expensive everything is & how crazy their budget is.

  7. Interesting tweets meanwhile...

    Maddie sounded really not smart detailing the theme for the bridal shower.

    ”They like to travel.  So we made the theme traveling..and she’s going from miss to Mrs. so she’s moving too, like traveling...so we have maps for traveling and moving stuff cause you use them to travel.”

    SNL had a skit last night centering on learning to creat PowerPoints and of course I thought of Kody’s TED Talk. 

    If is such a weird concept, PowerPoint to your spouse(s) as opposed to like...I don’t know...talking to them?

    I get this was for the show but it’s so weird and makes them all seem like coworkers, not family

  9. I have a friend who works at a Convention center in CA.  They had some sort of LLR convention there and Meri was there.  

    She was treated like a B list celebrity and signed bunches of leggings and apparel! Convention center security had to escort her around.

     She didn’t speak in any official capacity and kept saying she had to go pack for vacation.  

    She did tell people LLR made her self sufficient.

    Meri ain’t getting off the legging train til the caboose falls off!

  10. I keep harping on this but...

    4 houses with mortgages due in Vegas...bare minimum of $2000 a month.  Plus taxes, insurance, etc.

    Vegas: $10,000 minimum 

    Based on what we know, rent/mortgage for Flagstaff property (and I’m way low) is 3K per property a month. 

    Flagstaff:$ 12,000 minimum

    Property they bought including angels singing was $850,00.  payment  per month even with an amazing down payment would have to but nuts.

    Flagstaff property: $3000 minimum.

    They are spending at a minimum $25,000 a month on property...

    That’s not counting B&B monies and assuming they at least break even at the Lehi house.

    Mr. Angeltoes watched an episode with me.  He thought the whole bunch of them were loons but especially Kody.  He said,"Look at that crazy bastard!  He looks like a cult leader.  Wait, reverse it for a second, go back, go back, freeze it right there....see how nuts he looks?  It's all in his eyes.  He looks like Jim Jones!"  He also asked,"What the hell is wrong with his hair?".  Needless to say, I'll be watching alone from now on.

    Kody always reminds me of my ex pastor.  He was kicked out of the ministry at the church after mine...

    He has HUGE ideas but no planning or follow through then would get angry that his BIG PLAN wasn’t fufilled and blame everyone else for not following him.  

    My favorite was when he wanted to throw a back to school bash for  25,000 kids.  The problem was 1) there are only 7K students enrolled in the whole county, he has no concept of the amount of space, parking, money, security/traffic persons, it would take.  His plan was have 50 bags of chips and 1 bouncy house.  

    Kody gets these okay ideas in concept (moving to a quieter place with more plig families).  But his idea becomes stupid really fast. 

    They both are little boys who don’t care or don’t know how the real world works.

    I like Logan a lot. I've had my fill of Gabe and his angst over moving though.

    Logan more than the rest of them (kids and adults) always seemed to be liked and loved and respected by everyone.

    As the oldest and the only boy for the first 5 kids or so, I think he saw more than the other kids, the emotional toll this marriage took on the original 3 wives. 

    I get he’s an adult but it has to be crazy for all 20+ members of his family to move at one time, away from him.

  13. I think the Browns are gonna have less than a year before they have to start declaring bankruptcy once the show $ ends.

    Its not just about the show ending but all the kids aging out as well.

    Years ago my friend who is a tax lawyer showed me how these people have so much money.  Janelle & Christine would have filed as head of household.  Each had 6 dependents.  Janelle was working and would have “paid” Christine money to watch the highest # kids without needing a buisiness license or state supervision.  Most places that is 4.  Christine would “earn” enough $ to become eligible for earned income tax credits.

    Janelle meanwhile has lost a ton of her income due to payment for child care. She also now qualifies for earned income tax credits.

    Add in 6 dependents each & they both walk away with huge refund checks.  

    Married Kody and Meri has Meri who wasn’t working and Mariah as a dependent plus they’d claim mortgage and all other deductions.

    Then say your church meets at your home aka Duggars and you’ve got a couple thousand more!  

    Add Robyn with 3 kids who wasn’t working and we’ve got a small gold mine of interesting tax exemptions. 

    Then start random ass business that will never turn a profit for some more deductions!  They are small business owners now even if they do no business!

    Per my friend, that’s how a lot of plig families file taxes (if they do at all) and would give back the $ to the leader of the sect they follow.

  14. I cackled  at Robyn being victimized by the cake feeding.  She couldn’t even say “ex husband”...

    The we want your opinion but don’t is one of the most real scenes I’ve seen on the show in a while.

  15. Kody is so proud of himself for making his wives move.

    According to their upbringing and religion, they’ve got to follow their husbands decisions. 

    LMAO at Kody already discussing moving again.  He’s a FOOL

  16. Meri is FREEZING in May...

    Also Meri is being super awkward. Surprised she hasn’t said “love the trees, remember how I used to climb you like a tree?”
