Recap: The Best Duggar Christmas Pageant Ever

The family is throwing their second annual ugly sweater party. Some of the family members are going all out and wearing full ugly outfits. Everyone votes for weirdest, cutest, most creative costume and ugliest costume.
The winners are:
 James wins the weirdest costume
 Jana wins the cutest costume
 Josiah and Lauren win the most creative costume
 Justin wins the ugliest costume
With three granddaughters born within the same month, Jim Bob is happy to take photo of the girls and their moms. Addison and Bella arrived within six days of each other while Maryella arrived just a day before Thanksgiving.
Jana hopes that this tradition will continue because it's a fun time bringing all the family together. You can't go wrong with that.
Jeremy and Jinger are heading to cut down their Christmas tree at a farm outside of LA. Growing up, the Duggar family only had a live tree for one year and they planted it in the backyard at the end of the season. Jessa reveals that they try to keep the focus on Christ but love bringing out lights, Christmas tree and big wreaths. They arrive home to decorate the tree and it's beautiful.
The older children are organizing a pageant for the grandchildren and younger children. The play is in just two days and need to rehearse. Jana admits that they should have started a little bit before than just two days.
Jim Bob will play the donkey while Jackson and Johannah will play Joseph and Mary. Jordyn and Mackynzie are the angels. Tyler is the king and Michael is the scribe. Jason, James and Justin are the wiseman. Jennifer, Josie, and Mason are the shepherds. Spurgeon was supposed to be Gabriel but asks to play one of the sheep since they will be able to eat graham crackers.
Jessa has been working on a project to share with Jim Bob and Michelle on the night of the pageant. She heads to each of the grandchildren's houses to take photos. The Duggars currently have 16 grandchildren with one on the way.
On the big night, the family and friends gather to watch the pagnet at a one-room schoolhouse/church building that Jana had renovated. The play goes well. Johannah rides the donkey but ends up stepping on the costume. The snacks are left for the sheep on stage to keep them in one place for a short time but they still end up wandering.
Joseph leads the carol singalong and then Jessa reveals her gift to her parents. The parents love it.
