Duggar-Sized Christmas Tree

When you hear the term "Duggar-sized Christmas tree," what comes to mind? Perhaps a nice 8-footer? Or a 10-footer? Or maybe, since the Duggars' living room ceiling is so tall, they would be able to pull off a 12-foot tree. 

Well, this year the Duggars went BIG, and by big, we mean 20 feet tall and 400 pounds in weight. While Michelle and Jordyn were in Los Angeles helping Jinger and Jeremy with baby Evangeline Vuolo, the rest of the Duggar clan executed a gigantic surprise, in the name of Christmas cheer. Below is the link to the TLC video highlighting the process of transporting the tree from the great outdoors into their home.

Duggars Pose with Santa

Merry Christmas to all! To celebrate the season, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar hosted a Duggar family get together that included a gift exchange. Not everyone was able to attend in person (some dialed in via video chat), but Santa Claus managed to make an appearance. Below is a group photo and a link to a home video from Jessa.

Michelle and the Vuolo Grands
