The Duggar family, stars of the 19 Kids and Counting show, have started arriving in Central America for their annual Christmas mission trip.

Three of the oldest children--Jinger, 20; Joseph, 19; and Josiah, 18--arrived ahead of the rest of the family along with some friends, and have been in Guatemala and Honduras for over a week, “spreading Christmas joy to local children,” according to the unofficial family blog.

Jim Bob and Michelle, and most of the rest of their children--including Joy, 17; Jedidiah, 15; and Jeremiah, 15--were at the airport on Friday waiting for their flight to join the others.

Jill Duggar Dillard and her new husband Derick Dillard are planning on meeting up with the rest of the brood in El Salvador soon.

But one Duggar missing in action is newlywed Jessa, and her husband Ben Seewald. The blog notably omits any mention of them, while Jessa has not made any reference to the trip on social media.

She did post two pictures of herself and her husband enjoying themselves back from their honeymoon. They traveled to Hot Springs, a popular vacation spot in Arkansas, this weekend, and also went out to dinner.
