april sky June 2, 2019 Share June 2, 2019 I’ve been wondering how Meri is handling the LLR situation ... after doing research online about the company, as well as reading about some of the consultants, it seems many people have lost a lot of money on this clothing line. It’s a total disaster and so criminal. I knew nothing about it until I read about LLR here ... it’s made for fascinating reading, but I would be really concerned and angry if I were in Meri’s shoes. She’d better hope they can still rake in $$$$$ from the TV show! 3 Link to comment
xwordfanatik June 2, 2019 Share June 2, 2019 Terrible picture. No way would I go up to Meri and say hi. She'd probably chew my ass like she does her LLN customers/fans/sycophants. 8 Link to comment

Sofa Sloth June 2, 2019 Share June 2, 2019 (edited) Just when I thought she’d already shown us the worst LuLaNo has to offer... we get this ensemble. The print looks like someone vomited on it, the sleeves make her arms look like fat German sausages, weird baggy waist makes her look like she’s expecting, the length could not be more unflattering on her hips and again with heinous shoes! She looks like a legitimate garden gnome here. Edited June 2, 2019 by Sofa Sloth Spellingk 13 Link to comment

Meanwhile I haven't been able to take a trip there in years and it almost makes the LLR plyg life look worth it. (Kiddingk!) Does LLR comp her for all these Disney trips if she wears their ugly Mickey-print t-shirts? I've only been to Disney World once, and it was fun, but I don't understand the reason for her multiple trips to Disneyland. Seems like she goes there at least 8 - 10 times a year....after awhile, wouldn't it get kind of boring? Not to mention incredibly expensive? Aren't there, like, a thousand other things to see and do out west?

IIRC it's the shopping she's interested in and it's why she loves Disneyland so much, basically it's her favorite mall. I guess that makes sense if you love everything Disney, from your shoes to your shirts, pants, jewelry, watches, dishes, cooking utensils, tablecloths, canisters... etc, etc. I have a friend who can't pass up a Mickey Mouse toaster or a Minnie Mouse teapot. 😁 3 1 Link to comment

I'm over 66 and while agree that photo of Meri is not flattering, I don't think she looks to be over 60! More like mid-50's, which is still a 5+ years over her actual age. The girl in the background doesn't look happy--is that Ysabel, or possibly Truely? As for the Meri hate--who knows why Savannah's not in the photo? Did she go on this trip? Was she asked but chose not to go? Was she there but didn't want to be in the photo? I know many here hate Meri with a passion, but it may be that the Brown kids don't all share your feelings and some may actually enjoy spending some time with Meri. 6 Link to comment
Sofa Sloth June 4, 2019 Share June 4, 2019 (edited) Looks like all the kids were there... It appeared on the show that Meri seemed to favour and have more to do with certain kids, Ysabel and Breanna were always in her corner from memory (that time on the show that they both ‘moved in’ to Meri’s rental and Christine commented Ysabel loves Meri and she should have been hers. Then there was Meris role in ‘the adoption’ (*cough* Robyn’s desire to be legal wife• cough* ) and Robyn’s kids were all taught to idolise Meri for her ‘selfless sacrifice’. Meri also used Breanna as a wedge between her and Mariah on a trip to Utah during the catfish anger and mentioned she’d taken her alone before (to be fair Breanna was the consolation prize that time, after Meri raged and slammed doors about being denied king Solomon on the trip by Robyn). The older kids have grown up watching Meri (and Mariah) taking the lions share of family funds and living the fine life while they struggled to be heard for basic needs, (Kody pretty much said as much one episode, that Mariah never came to ask for things). That would be the perfect ground for some pretty resentful fillings to grow. Anyway I would say that Ysabel & Robyn’s kids probably have some bond with Meri I’m not sure about the rest. IMO It’s pretty telling that both Aspyn and Maddie picked crowded other homes to move back to as adults, rather than the 5 bedroom empty wetbar mansion next door...

Don't pay your property taxes but spend over $2K just for entrance to the park for 20 people ($100/day for age 10+, may be a bit less at $97/day or up to $117/day depending on the day). That doesn't take into account the food. I am pretty frugal and it cost over $30 for lunch for me and my cousin to have lunch in the park. Then to buy Disney stuff?

That's pretty much how I remember it, too. Add me to the list that doesn't get why Meri is so attached to Disneyland. To me, just having it tainted by Sam/Jackie would make me not want to return, at least for a long while. And this family seems to go several times a year. I agree @Natalie68, it seems really dumb. Let bills go unpaid and be on vacation at the drop of a hat? I can't relate. 2 11 Link to comment
MonicaM June 5, 2019 Share June 5, 2019 I love both Disney parks. We go to one or the other every four or five years. More than that would be overkill for us. Clearly Meri feels otherwise. It wouldn't surprise me if Disney has some kind of special deal with the Brown's that enables them to get into the parks for free, or at a greatly reduced entry fee, in exchange for posting pictures on social media. It would be inexpensive advertising for Disney, and would help explain how they can afford to take so many to the park. 1 1 Link to comment

But there is no way they get perks like that. They have so many A+ list stars that go to Disney on the regular - the Brown Clowns and children are nothing to them. Also, Disney raises their prices in part to keep people from coming to the parks due to overcrowding. They do not need any shilling on social media to attract parkgoers. 9 Link to comment

Once, when I was two, and obviously don't remember. Twice, when my daughter was 6ish, in the late 80's. When said daughter lived in LA for two years as an adult, she went a few times. We visited them, and wanted to do other stuff (Venice Beach, Wax Museum, Walk of Fame, etc.) so we gladly skipped Disneyland. Yes, I do believe that polygamist lifestyle is very aging for the women. All that stress and competition, I just couldn't. Meri and Robyn aren't aging well as it is. Christine is very wrinkled for 40 something, too, IMO. Not fat shaming here (I weighed nearly 250 6 years ago) but my sort-of-overweight neighbor told me, "Fat Don't Crack." Janelle seems to have fewer wrinkles than the others. I know when I lost weight, my face did look older. It's a tradeoff (at least it was for me.) 7 Link to comment

The fake tan and three shades darker than necessary foundation she slaps on with a garden trowel, accounts for a fair bit of that unnatural orange appearance (unless she secretly eats carrots by the bucket load). So agree with you all, on the stuck in her ways 80’s look she has going on 😆 Laughing out loud at your comments. Here’s the heyday hair inspiration she can’t quite let go of - Then you see her in all her puffed sleeve glory for her wedding pic and just you know she was a massive victim of the era.
