JINGER Duggar Vuolo has reunited with three of her sisters for the first time since their brother Josh was sentenced to prison.
Fans, however, have spotted a key family member missing from the photos.
Jinger reunited with her siblings over the weekend at the Santa Monica Pier.
She, along with Jessa, Jana, Jennifer, and Jessa's husband, Ben, got on rides at the pier and had a fun time, despite Josh being sentenced to prison.
"We're here at the coaster, the Santa Monica coaster," Jinger said in the video as she panned to show her siblings.
She showed off the coaster track and their view of the ocean behind them before getting onto the ride.

They then proceeded to snap pictures on rides and on the pier.
The siblings went shopping, took more pictures and videos, and then ended the night playing UNO.
"@jessaseewald @janamduggar @ben_seewald & my little sis Jennifer all came for a visit over the weekend. We rode the roller coaster at the Santa Monica Pier, ate lots of good food, played some intense rounds of spicy Uno, and did some shopping in Glendale at the Americana. Such an awesome time!" she captioned the post.
The siblings also went out to eat and all went against the family's dress code and rules as they wore pants and short-sleeves.

However, fans noticed that one sibling was missing from all of this and that was Jill.
This outing was the first time the siblings were seen together since Josh Duggar was sentenced to prison.
SORRY, SISTER!
While there was no reason stated why Jill was not there, there is one good possibility of why she didn't join in on the fun.
Jill is heavily pregnant and therefore, cannot fly to California.
She lives in Arkansas with her husband, Derick Dillard, and two, soon-to-be three, kids.
They have two sons together- Israel, six, and Samuel, four, and their next arrival will also be a boy.
Jill revealed to The Sun that she was going through extreme stress after her brother's molestation scandal was exposed.
She, along with Jessa, Jinger and Joy-Anna sued the City of Springdale, police department employees, and other Defendants for invasion of privacy, claiming to release their oldest brother Josh’s molestation police report caused "emotional distress.”
Jill, 31, and Jessa, 29, came forward as two of the five victims that were molested in the family home in 2006, while Jinger, 28, and Joy-Anna, 24, have not.
The case was dismissed ahead of trial, as a judge ruled that the sisters failed to prove the released report caused emotional distress.
She did not seek treatment for the physical symptoms, which included hair loss and other things, but did see a therapist.
JOSH'S TROUBLES
In April 2021, Josh was charged on counts of receiving and possessing child pornography, to which he pleaded not guilty, and was ultimately found guilty for both.
His sentencing date was on May 25, 2022.
The Sun can first reveal Arkansas Judge Timothy L. Brooks sentenced Josh, 34, to over 12 years in prison on May 25.
Prosecutors demanded the disgraced star receive the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, while Josh’s legal team begged for just five years behind bars ahead of the court hearing.

In 2015, he apologized for his pornography addiction and for cheating on his wife, publicly announcing himself as "the biggest hypocrite ever."
The family's TLC show, 19 Kids and Counting, was canceled after the allegations came out against him.
