madpsych78 December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 (edited) Surprised to see a Seewald (guessing it's the youngest Seewald daughter? The one that's younger than Michelle Seewald?) She's in between MEchelle and Jana in the first pic. Mixed feelings about Jessa's sweats. While I applaud her for deciding not to wear a skirt or dress even when it is not her house and there is the possibility that they are filming, those...are the only sweats she seems to own, and she looks super frumpy, especially compared to Lauren and Abbie who both look fantastic. ETA: It's not Danielle Seewald. Danielle has the most distinctive looks of all of the Seewald girls. ETA2: Faith Seewald. Youngest of Ben's sisters. Born in 2006, so she's 14 and in Hannie and Jenni's cohort. Edited December 17, 2020 by madpsych78 3 Link to comment

Anna looks to be dressed frumpier than Michelle, and her youngest two look dressed to go to the Nutcracker. Picture number 4. Lauren on center stage. A moment she'll remember for ever.

My daughter's front door opens into a great room, and the door to the backyard is at the back of the room. It's a very nice house. What you're describing makes more sense than Joy's set up. The houses in my neck of the woods typically have a front and back door, or a front door and side door, and sometimes all three, but not typically in the same room. The front door usually leads into a foyer or living room. The back or side door is usually in the kitchen or kitchen area. Some of the older homes have a side door that leads to a tiny space with stairs down to the basement and a couple steps up to the kitchen. Some might have a back door in the kitchen and sliders in the dining room, so technically they're on the same wall, but in two separate rooms. I'm going through the houses of my family and friends in my head and can't think of one with entrance/exit doors in the same room or like in Joy's case, adjoining walls. All this said, I've only lived in New England, so this may be a northern thing. 2 Link to comment
ozziemom December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 I love the laundry basket in the dining area but that would probably happen to me too. I’m guessing Jill was invited but this was party was during school time and Jill has an actual schedule unlike the rest of them. 1 Link to comment

emma675 December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 I really don't understand the dress code for Joy's event. Some are in sweaters, jeans, and boots (and Lauren looks to be wearing Hunter boots, which are fairly expensive), some are in skirts, leggings, and sandals, some are in sweats, some are barefoot. It's odd and if it was for filming, it's even odder. 9 Link to comment

I think you answered your own question. Going barefoot in a home where everyone is wearing shoes might feel a little gross. Especially if they're tracking in dirt, mud, snow, etc. We don't wear shoes in our house for the most part, and I also sweep and vacuum pretty regularly. 1 4 Link to comment

I owned a 1960's rambler in the DC 'burbs, and the front door opened into the living room, and on the adjacent wall, there was a side door, which was technically in the same room (living room opened into the dining room.) Very similar to Joy's layout (although our kitchen originally had walls, which we knocked down to open up the kitchen.) I think it's a fairly common layout, but yes, you wouldn't see it much in New England, where colonials are king.

Absolom December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 Another thing on Joy's house is they remodeled it.

With all the people coming and going, including the camera crew, going barefoot in Ma and Pa Duggar's house would be the equivalent of going barefoot in a shopping mall. I wouldn't even consider it.

She said in a YT video that some of her siblngs are "supportive" of the slightly less fundie life she now leads, but some are not. I wonder if since this gathering contained everyone and some of the ones are not "supportive" then the decision was made to exclude her? I have this awful feeling Joy is one of the "not supportive" siblings. Even though Jill, you know, raised her. But Joy seems to have quadrupled down on all things fundie ever since Evelyn was born. I think people like Jessa or Jana don't really care that much but Joy seems to be a true believer. 5 Link to comment

I also wonder if Jinger is glad or sad to be so far away from it all. I have no reason to believe that any of the Duggarlings are *not* kool-aid drinkers until there's evidence to the contrary. Just because Jana wisely keeps. her mouth shut except to post inanities on SM and do the required talking heads, I think some people think she's harboring some secret rebellion. I think that's wishful thinking. Her silence leaves room for speculation but IMO that's all it is -speculation. As for Joy, she's been married for a few years now to a hard-core fundie, and I'm sure she goes along with him on things, but having been reared in Duggar world, she's already inclined to think that way. Even if she had a "doubt" or two a few years ago. I was writing as @BitterApple was posting, and I agree with that. Really the only Duggar kid who IMO isn't still marching along with the JB party line is Jill. I'm glad if some of her sibs are supportive - and I assume it's mostly expressed privately and not in front of the parents - but not surprised she was shunned for that stupid superspreader event, if indeed she was. 12 Link to comment
Growsonwalls December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 I'm of two minds about this. If Jill's family can't be supportive of her making the best decisions for herself like using birth control, wearing pants, and sending Izzy to school, then it's better that she's not around that kind of negativity. On the other hand it's incredibly shitty of them to exclude her from situations where her life choices probably would not be an issue and making Christmas wreaths is one of those activities. For one, Lauren and Abbie are wearing what they want to wear and the Seewald sisters also don't really follow the Duggar rules. Also, Joy is being shitty by keeping her distance from the woman who actually raised her. You would think that the bond they have would be unbreakable. 13 Link to comment
GeeGolly December 17, 2020 Share December 17, 2020 It would be nice to think one of the sisters, or Michelle, called her first to say they were filming and some pics may end up on SM, so she knows its not an event they're excluding her from. But in reality, not filming was Jill's choice and some of our choices come with painful side effects. 1 6 Link to comment
