Hunter's Duggar Challenge - "The Fuggars"

Picking up with the Fuggars.........

Christine spends a lot of time reading and researching about cooking on the Internet and in books.



She's taken a career in the culinary field and while now - it doesn't pay much money - she really loves it and will apply it to her future. There will be no McDonald's for the Fuggar kids when they come.



Here she's perfected her Bruschetta - a favorite of John Clyde.



He LOVES Christine's cooking........but he would like to have some dining room chairs to sit in one day. So many dreams........they seem so far away. He originally was going to take up the business career - but immediately switched to a political career. His living situation with Christine has impassioned him to want better for not only them - but for their community.



Times are tough right now (only about $1,046 in the bank account) but they really love each other and both remain optimistic.



John Clyde goes to bed early which leaves Christine a few hours in the evening to herself. She likes to jump rope and clean.



Though they do not have children yet, one day they will and Christine has already made up her mind that there must be order. Her and John Clyde dream of having as many children as God will bless them with............

When we last left the Fuggars.......they were not doing well financially and had just started their jobs.



John Clyde just started out in the political field and Christine in the Culinary field. Christine LOVES cooking and John Clyde longs to make the world a better place.



Christine, being a very creative person - has convinced John Clyde to invest in a Pottery maker for her. She feels very strongly that what was once a hobby in school - could be a good investment. John Clyde supports her - but has NO IDEA or interest in pottery.



John Clyde prefers to keep physically active as a hobby. His other dream hobby is auto restoration, but it's a secret he's kept from Christine for awhile. He knows of an older gentleman in the neighborhood who has an old beater. John Clyde wants to restore the vehicle - but he knows that he will have to put money into it to fix it to his standards.



They're in love though.



Affection comes very easily to them.



The fact that they do not yet own a television helps in this department too!!!



Uh-oh...........



They've decided love got them this far - and that they be fine no matter what their situation. They are very excited about having a baby and more in love than ever.

~~~~~~



Showing now......John Clyde still can't keep his eyes or his hands off of Christine.



Life is going pretty good. John Clyde has been promoted to lobbyist. Christine works in fast food - but is making a nice supplemental income with her pottery.



Life goes about pretty much as usual. John Clyde still works on his physical fitness.

And on one quiet day. While John Clyde is reading his fitness magazine.........



OH MY GOSH!!! Christine is thinking to herself - I'm going into labor and HE reads he keeps reading his magazine?????!!!!!



"Are you KIDDING ME HERE?????" John Clyde is immersed in his magazine.



OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



World.........welcome Mitchell Fuggar.



Okay, John Clyde has come to his senses and put down the magazine. Love........they are both immediately in love with their son. "Wow.........Christine - you are the most amazing person ever. I don't think other than in death I could ever get closer to God. I love you." John Clyde cries.



Happier than ever.......Christine worries a little. Mitchell's mother - that's something BIG to live up to. We're going to do it! Our lives will continue to be good - in fact now with Mitchell - our lives will be absolutely AWESOME.

~~~



Mitchell's grown into a toddler.



John Clyde continues to thrive in his political career. He loves his family immensely - but LOVES when he gets to go on his evening jogs after putting Mitchell to bed.



Christine continues with ther pottery - and in fact earns about $1200 a week selling her wares.



She spends her days with Mitchell. She works a few nights a week at the fast food joint and on her evenings off - she makes her pottery.



Wow - life is really working out!!



When one night.........John Clyde makes a suggestion. "You want a what???" Christine says. John Clydge thinks it's time they add to their family.



"You're a wonderful father - I would LOVE to have another baby with you."
