Have you been following the Duggars long enough to remember their paintball match with the Bates in 17 Kids and Counting "Bates vs. Duggars Smackdown"? If you have watched that episode, you know that the Duggars are ruthless on the paintball field. Every year on Black Friday, they gather for a family paintball match. Even some of the little ones participate. Here are a few photos from this year:

It wouldn't be fun to me...but it must be for them...and that's fine. Hope they had fun!
ReplyDeleteHow come none of the girls are playing?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they didn't want to play.
DeletePretty sure Johannah is in there. Isn't that who is in picture with Jim Bob??
DeleteI see at least 5 girls in there
DeleteI remember!!! Wouldn't want to play paintball with them!! (Or anybody 😊)
ReplyDeletePainball-ing is the bomb, its so exhilarating! Wish I was allowed to play at Johannahs age.
ReplyDeleteme i would be scared of geting hurt but looks fun. just watch out for your eyes.
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun hope you guys had fun. I love u all please say hi to all the kids especially Jedidiah, Jason, Jill, Jessa, and Jinger. They are my favorite
ReplyDeleteI like all the duggers they rock But how do you guys keep track of everyone during paint ball and vacations
ReplyDeleteOui:) Hannie is cute:) Andd finally a Duggar girl n trousers:) But I have a strange presumption that poor Josie will never be able to outgrow being a 'baby' of the family.Such is the life of the youngests - fancy being the youngest of nineteen kids...
ReplyDeleteLooks like they have a blast doing that. So glad Johannah got to wear a pant set for paintball rather than a skirt. Nothing wrong with pants at all.
ReplyDeleteWas Johanna the only girl allowed to play?
ReplyDeleteJessa is pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't GET Paintballing at all!!!!!!!! It's FUN to SHOOT at your loved one? I
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is this "If families lived the way this family did with high morals and keeping God first in their life, this world would be a much better place."
ReplyDeleteI'm just curious, where did they go paintballing, and are those other people their friends? The older girls must of been shopping, as I see only a few Duggars kids. How fun!! :) Way to go Duggars!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletethe very 1st picture has jimbob with one of the daugthers.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand all the comments about the girls finally being able to wear pants. The younger girls for many many years have worn pants under their dresses. In fact that is one thing I always liked that they had the girls wear pants under the skirts/dresses so they could roll around and play like a kid. Even the older girls have worn pants under skirts when doing something very active. Also, to say why only Hannie played, how do you know everyone who played I am sure not every picture was posted and the group picture has so many people it is hard to tell who is who
ReplyDeleteWhen I read comments pointing out that Johanna is in pants, or why aren't any of the other girls playing, it makes me wish people would stop reading so much in these little details and accept the fact that the girls in this family wear skirts unless the activity makes a skirt inappropriate, no big deal, it is pretty simple, Michelle has addressed it numerous times. This is their conviction, you don't have to feel sorry for the girls because they dress like girls. In our society women have worn skirts for thousands of years, pants are relatively new addition to our wardrobe. I do not personally share this conviction, but I totally respect them for it and even admire them all the more for this. As far as observer who noticed that Johanna appears to be the only girls playing, this makes perfect sense to me. All of the girls younger than Johanna are probably too young or may not wish to play. All of the girls older than Johanna are young women and probably don't wish to play. I seriously doubt that they are not allowed to play paintball all of a sudden. It just seems like people fixate on how these kids are raised. Seems to me that they are being raised beautifully and that the biggest threat to their well being is not their parents parenting, but living in the media spotlight. Far more unhealthy than girls dressing modestly.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything you said, although I do have a conviction to wear skirts. Have my whole life. Never stopped me from riding a bike, swimming, taking gym class in school, etc.
DeleteIt looks like they're wearing orange and blue - Chicago Bears colors! (Although being a Bears' fan is a bit embarrassing at this time, but I'm always cheering on my Chicago teams.) Anyhow, it looks like The Duggar had a great time, and I always wish this great family the best. Your sister in Christ, Kristin
ReplyDeleteNice & loverly to see the girls with no skirt ! Wearing modest clothes is very respectable .... Therefore trying different type of clothing can be fun & also part of the education, finding yourself.
ReplyDeleteI do not find this amusing whatsoever that this is the closest the Duggar children will come to actual combat, while supposedly supporting our American military. In fact, I find this extremely distasteful and in horrid disrespect to all our men and women in combat fighting for our freedon that the only thing the Duggar children had to dodge are paintballs and not bullets, while they are on the trail daily shouting freedom for our military.
ReplyDelete??? Just a question for yourself, have you or yours enlisted?
DeleteAre those just the Duggars playing or they friends of the Duggars. I don't think any of the girls play cept for Johannah. The older girls are probable at home. I would want to do paintball its to dangerest.
ReplyDeleteThe girls never played before when they played the Bates.
