"We all plan to celebrate with a toast and cake, a lot of laughter and tears," said Mona K. Wood, the Chapman's publicist. "We've gone through so many highs and lows, disasters and miracles. But here we are, still standing. I'm proud of them – they are survivors. I'm sure the celebration will end with a prayer to thank the Lord for all he has given us, and thank the millions of fans who never gave up and fought for their show. We have so much to be grateful for it's quite humbling and emotional for all of us."
And more good things are happening as the Chapmans return to full-time filming of their show.
