Michaela & Brandon Keilen 5: She Goes By Michaela

[QuiverFullofBooks]

The dress styles differ and there are several different colors. The bride could have let everyone choose from a range, and Michael was the only one who picked her design and color. 

The photo is weird. The setting seems to be a hotel passageway?

@neurogirl if I’m not mistaken Becky (and her twin Brent) used to work for IBLP. It seems that they’ve both loosened up a little. Michael seems to accept them without judgement but only she knows what she’s thinking. 

Becky, Brent and Brandon? WTF?  Are the other siblings also B?

Have you met the family with 19 children that all have names that start with the letter J? ?

It bothers me almost as much as the girl 3rd from left wearing a formal dress with espadrilles.

Fundies have never been known for their choice of event appropriate footwear.

Actually no. There’s no letter theme. There’s an RJ, a Craig, and 3 of the sisters are Amber, Alison, and Angie. One or two more  sistersI can’t remember.

Becky is a nickname of Rebecca. Anyway the Keilens have 10 children and if they do have a naming theme and its not just a coincidence their theme its the letters A, R, C, B: Angela, Ronald, Alison, Craig, Rebecca, Brent, Cara, Brandon, Christy-Ann, and Amber. By the way the oldest Angie is engaged at 45! Is that the oldest fundie we have seen marry? Thats new hope for Sarah Maxwell.

We can’t compare Sarah Maxwell to Angie, an independent woman who works and lives on her own (or at least away from home.) Sarah never had the freedom that the Keilen sisters have.

[OhNoNike]

Wow- I’ve not paid too much attention to the Keilen family.  Not many of them are actually married. 

RJ is and has three kids with K names, Kensington, Kardigan, and Keaton. (Kardigan?!)

With this wedding there is 4 married (Brandon, Brent, Becky and RJ), and one engaged (Angie), all the rest are still single. RJ is the only one that has kids. Kardigan is a particularly ugly name, but Kensington its not much better, yikes.

[OhNoNike]

I’ve just never seen that as a name... and with a K. 

Actually it seems most of the married ones did get married “later”.  At least older than the Bates.

This is very true. I was stalking Amber’s ig now that it’s public and there’s a pic of Angie obtaining a masters degree in political management from George Washington University in 2015

Yes!!! It’s something the photographer should have noticed and fixed. That’s like wedding ocd 101. Pictures should be symmetrical.

Keaton is one of my family member’s name. I’ve always thought it was particularly bad.

So, in other words, they are the CARB family!

I hope RJ and Mrs. RJ were careful about those middle names.   Dangerously close to some scary initials...

Konvenient.

[heysmilinstrange]

I'm in tears over Kardigan. ?

[PlentyOfJesusFishInTheSea]

My BEC of the day is that the bridesmaids' dresses mix cool and warm purple. Pick a hue/tone/whatever that word is!

Also, Kardigan!! Reminds me of the 19-year-old Mormon on Say Yes to the Dress named Duvet.

Autocorrect changed it to cardigan.

Too bad Duvet couldn't get together with Blanket Jackson.

I’d constantly be thinking of the 80’s sitcom Family Ties. Good old Michael J. Fox as the Republican loving  Alex P. Keaton. 

[HereticHick]

Kardigan. Oh, I cannot. Yes, I know its a place in Wales. But still. I just cannot.

Did they consider the name Kamisole?

We had someone come into the office today named Canopy.

And when something belongs to her/him (which is it?) it would be "can o' peas"

Now I have to put on my mature britches and go keep my grandkids alive for a few hours.
