This morning we drove forty-five minutes to the oral surgeon where Jon was scheduled to have all four of his wisdom teeth removed. We walked in at 10:10am filled out paper work and paid the bill. Less than five minutes later Jon was taken into the back room. I sat down to read and didn’t even get to finish the chapter when Jon walked out and said “are you ready?” I was dumb-founded! I looked it the clock it read 10:35am, the doctor had removed all four teeth in under 30 minutes. Jon didn’t go to sleep to have his teeth removed; all of his teeth were completely in so it was a less invasive procedure then most. He is doing really well and we are both still in awe of how fast the doctor extracted his teeth. It took us longer to drive there than it did for them to pull his teeth!
Jon and Jen Quast are members of New Tribes Mission to become tribal church planters in Paraguay among some of the most distant, majority world ethnic groups on the planet. Their passion and desire is to see the name of Jesus proclaimed over the whole earth, and they desperately desire people who have never had the opportunity to hear what Jesus has done for them to believe on His name for Salvation.

Look How Much We've Grown!
I never thought I would look pregnant but the day has finally come. Everyone said it would and they were right.
I don’t seem to notice how round my belly has gotten until I try to squeeze through a small space or when Jon gives me a hug.
Life becomes a little tricky when you have twelve inches all out front that can’t be pushed aside or squished.
30 weeks
Don’t get me wrong though, I won’t change this experience for anything. I have enjoyed every moment and it’s not over yet.
33 weeks
Our little boy is growing very well and is a big mover. He is constantly rearranging my organs and if my ribs could bend anymore they would be in really cool shapes right now.
With only 6 weeks until my due date it’s hard not to become impatient. We are looking forward to meeting our baby boy!

Valentine's Day
I didn’t get any pictures of him singing but did I capture Pastor Steve and his wife Cindy as they sang a song. A couple was also nominated as the King and Queen of Love for the evening. This couple is always seen holding each others hands and smiling. Congratulations Louis and Mary Filoso!
