Spring 2019 Pictures and Videos

We are finally catching up on sharing pictures and videos in this big post from the remaining spring months (April-June) and plan to follow up with a summer post before too long. 😉 With our move, transitions with school & work for Derick, loss of Grandma Mary Duggar, while juggling real life with the boys, we fell behind in the monthly posts, so here’s a catch up on birthdays, settling into the new house and all!
We celebrated Israel’s 4th birthday just before our big move into our new home in April. In May, Derick wrapped up finals for his first (“1L”) year of law school (only 2 more years left now!). Jill’s birthday was the 17th of May, then we enjoyed a short break in our schedule before Derick began some summer jobs just a couple weeks later! In June we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary with a weekend trip to Branson, MO!
From birthday celebrations to NCAA golf championships, to picnics with friends, a wedding, farm fun and water play in our new backyard, there are lots of pictures to catch up on!

October 15th
I love following all you guys. Never missed the show but it seems like its been a long time since its been on.
Thank you Jill. I hope your summer is going well.
Cute Pictures and videos. Thanks for sharing some of your family’s fun moments. Israel and same are growing so fast. Both are as cute as can be.
Woops..sorry I accidently misspelled (typo) Sam’s name on the previous comment/post.
Thank you for sharing theses precious pictures and videos! I could not believe how well Sam was able to “play” the trumpet! One of my sons played the trumpet in college and I could never make a sound come out of it. I love your new home. May God continue to bless each and every one of you!
Y’all should time stamp the pictures so we know when they were taken. 🙂
Love seeing all these pictures, you’re family is so adorable
Are you guys done having kids?
