I got to meet a very special family today. Wanna guess who? I'll give you a hint. They have 18(soon to be 19) kids. Yes, that's right. I meet the Duggar family! It was wonderful! They came to speak at a church near our town. We made sure to take our camera, and our book for them to sign. 16 out of 18 came with Jim Bob and Michelle. It was great to actually "see" them in person, in stead of watching them on T.V.
(sorry about the poor quality. lighting was terrible, and camera was shaky)
Here they are! (it took me forever 5 seconds of adjusting to get them all to fit in the frame.)
They sang a hymn, but I don't remember which one. Sorry! =D
All the children play the piano and violin. Here they are performing "Onward Christian Soldiers".
And then Michelle told us that they had memorized Exodus 20:1-17 by putting hand motions to the words. By the looks of their hands, their on number commandment number 7.
After that Jim Bob and Michelle spoke. They talked about how they meet, yearly marriage life, their commitment to living debt free, how they got a show on TLC, and how they came to have 18 children!
All in all, it was a great experience! I don't know when I'll see them again, but I do know that this is one thing that I won't be forgetting anytime soon.
