What's keeping Duggars busy? Family celebrates Michael's 4th birthday, enjoys high tea party

Now that TLC Network has decided to pull the plug on the remaining episodes of "19 Kids and Counting," people are asking: What's keeping the Duggar family busy?

Just this week, the family celebrated a birthday and conducted mini parties with the younger Duggar kids.

Josh's son Michael celebrated his fourth birthday in his grandparent's home in Arkansas, and the family treated him to a special birthday cake.

On their Facebook page, Jim Bob and Michelle greeted their second grandkid: "This boy is 4 years old today! He is clever and he is kind. There was a time we could not imagine anything as amazing than being parents. Now, we are grandparents, too, and we absolutely love everything about it! Happy, happy birthday Michael! Grandma and Grandpa Duggar love you so much!"

The family even got Jana and the young Duggar girls all dolled up and treated them to a high tea party at a restaurant. Jennifer, Josie, Jordyn, and Johanna Duggar all wore matching purple straw hats decorated with pink flowers for the tea party, and they all looked pretty happy to be spending some quality time together.

"What fun we can have in one day! Formal high tea party and a great creature hunt (Turtles and crawdads found!). What a perfectly wonderful Saturday spent with these kiddos!" the family shared.

Jana did not wear a straw hat, but she looked pleased nonetheless since she got to spend time with her mom Michelle. "Love spending time with this sweet lady. So thankful to have her as a role model, a friend and a mom! Always love my time with her," said Jana.
