A Birthday, a Blessing, & a Farewell

Last week we had the opportunity to go down to Klamath for the weekend, and the entire Guest clan was there!

These pictures are not in chronological order...

We snapped some family pictures in the park. Xander was less than cooperative (as usual), and I still can't believe I have a blonde haired, blue eyed baby:


My lovely parents with all 6 of their grandkids (which will be outdated in January).

I got to meet Josh and Susan's little Ginny for the first time this trip (she was also blessed this weekend). She's so sweet and adorable, but had more diaper blowouts in those 3 days than both of my kids have had in their lives.

All 6 grandkids at church:

My little brother Jake also had his mission farewell at church on Sunday. He gave a wonderful talk on missionary work, and the people of Brazil will be lucky to have him around! (Thanks Susan for letting me steal this picture off your blog)

My adorable mom, pulling the grandbabies:

3 days ago, we celebrated Xander's 4th birthday. We told him that he couldn't open his birthday presents until his cousins came over in the afternoon. Within 45 seconds of the door ringing, I turned around and found this...a tornado of wrapping paper and one happy little boy:

Birthday cake with their cousins:

And just for fun:


And a little pregnancy update: Thursday is our big ultrasound! I haven't decided if we're going to find out the baby's sex or keep it a surprise until birth. I'm sure I'll cave, so stay tuned :)
