Don't know. I saw it posted on a YouTube video. She didn't say where she found it. (And no, it wasn't WOACB. It's a sweet old lady who posts from her kitchen.) 😄

I saw something on yahoo about it but no picture either. 

[xwordfanatik]

Did I see it on Reddit?  It was somewhere, I know I saw it.

Took me a minute to find her. If you click the link for "social media" in the second paragraph, it takes you to a reddit post. Then if you scroll over to the second picture in that post, she's in the back next to Priscilla. Beige/brown dress. I didn't recognize her at first, but I looked closer and I'm pretty sure that's her.

Another Anna sighting. This time at her grandfather's (Suzette's father) funeral. Mack has gotten tall! 

Also in the back, Nathan and Nurie.

Every one of them appears to be squinting into the sun.

It's a terrible picture. I can't believe that Mike Keller is only 63. He looks a good 10-15 years older.

How old is McKynzie? (I cannot ever spell her name correctly)  I wonder if family history will hinder her finding someone to get to know.

[Salacious Kitty]

Mackynzie just turned 14. She was born shortly after Smuganna's first anniversary.

Yep there was a mountain of evidence against Josh, even beyond him stupidly asking them without prompting if they were there about CP during the initial raid. 

After the trial revealed how much evidence was against him, my assumption has always been that they advised him to take a plea deal and not go to trial. That advice was clearly not followed, and there's only so much even a good lawyer can do in that scenario. 

I wonder if it has started to hit him that he is not actually god’s favorite??

I hope Famy didn't harass Anna at her grandfather's funeral. (Just a jokey snark - I doubt Amy would have any reason to be there.)

I think the funeral was in Alabama. No reason for Famy to be there. 😀

Hatred for others and poor diet will do that.

Nah. Job was God's favorite too, remember.  Josh is probably expecting angels to show up and tell him he's going to get back twice what he lost.

[crazy8s]

But first he will be freed from prison like Paul and Silas. Great tremors will occur and all the prison doors will suddenly open so he can walk away free.

In Joy's camping video, were Anna and her children included?  My heart breaks for those kids.  If they are indeed living at the TTH their lives must be miserable.  They seem forgotten.

[realityfan26]

When Jkid was panning the campground he pointed out Jim and Shelly's camper so it's possible Anna and the kids were there. Pretty careful editing to not include Josiah and family, JB, Meech in the video

[AstridM]

Shelly? Since when? 😆

[GeeGolly]

I think Anna has a camper. It would be easy enough for one of the brothers to drive it over and set it up. Or its possible they went to FL or TX for Thanksgiving.

The Kellers didn't have Thanksgiving this year, so if Anna went anywhere, it was to the Pecans. But this camping trip was the weekend before, so she could have done both.

Today is the 2nd anniversary of FF's conviction. Was Anna at the prison bawling her eyes out?

The only thing she's probably bawling her eyes out about is she's been 2 years without any more babies. 

[oliviabenson]

It’s been 2 years since he put his sweaty paws all over her. I’m sure she is happy to be left alone. I don’t think their lotion time was enjoyable for her at all. But she probably does miss no more BABIEZ.

[Absolom]

She's had over two years of freedom from Josh's demands.  I hope she's learning to value her at least partial freedom.

This is something I wonder about.  10 years is a long time and it is likely her feelings toward him are going to start changing as she keeps going on alone.  There are a lot of rumors about her relationship with her in-laws, but I'm not sure how many are true.  I suspect JB is still supporting her and she and the kids may have moved into the two dorms.  It is entirely possible that his absence is not making her heart grow fonder.

[Salacious Kitty]

All excellent points!

I was thinking of "At least I have a husband!" 😀

Sometimes I wonder if simply not being pregnant or postpartum and caring for infants is giving her more clarity in her life.
For the first time since her oldest she has more moments to herself without planning for her next pregnancy and perhaps can enjoy her existing children more without having to cater to Josh.

I can only imagine how disgusting lotion time with Josh must be. He's gross!

According to his Ashley Madison profile, he had several kinks. I wonder if he forced Anna. Hopefully not, but this is Smuggar Duggar we're talking about. He seemed to get his way all the time. 

[YupItsMe]

I still remember how she looked the first time we saw her after their wedding night. Like she was frightened and nauseous and wanted to escape. There’s no telling what he did to her that night, and she had no frame of reference so probably thought that was what all sex is like.

[GeeGolly]

I'll never forget a scene filmed in Jill's mcmansion. I don't recall the exact conversation, but Anna, Josh and JB&M were checking it out after Jana and some siblings had cleaned and decorated prior to J&D returning from their honeymoon. Someone said something about how they'd have room for plenty of guests and Anna said, with a big happy innocent smile something like, well they won't want guests for at least the first month. Josh did a quick blush/eye roll/grimace and Michelle did her famous almost gasp-turn into a statue response. And the entire scene went still.

The 'joke' was on Anna. Everyone knew what she was implying wasn't quite the norm for honeymooners. This would have been about a year prior to scandals 1 & 2. So yes, I think at least in the beginning lotion time with Josh was often and inventive, to put it mildly.

[quarks]

John Oliver brought up Covenant Eyes in Last Week Tonight this week (in relation to a political thing); he didn't mention Josh Duggar, but the entire thing reminded me of just how useless Covenant Eyes turned out to be and how easy it was for someone determined - or unable to deal with boredom - to circumvent. 

[quarks]

It appears that Josh may be at least considering to appeal his case to the Supreme Court - the deadline for filing this was December 27th, but his lawyers have asked for and been granted an extension to February 24th. Reddit folks have the link here:

https://www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?filename=/docket/docketfiles/html/public/23a554.html

Technically, this is not an appeal of the entire case - just a further appeal of the ruling that allowed Josh's initial, incredibly damning statements to be allowed into the trial as evidence. Josh and his attorneys are continuing to argue that Josh didn't get a Miranda warning, but the Miranda warning only applies if you are actually arrested, and Josh wasn't arrested until months later. 

The Supreme Court could, I guess, take this up, but leaving aside the fact that Josh is just not a sympathetic figure in any way, this doesn't look like a very interesting legal issue, so I doubt the Supreme Court will review it.

He isn't that special and not worth their time.

Could David and Priscilla’s son’s suit be any smaller?  It looks about 3 sizes too small.  He must be miserable wearing it. 😢

Good for the Church getting rid of him. Boo to Story. But this Church is annoying me. “Child abuse of any kind is not supported at this church.”  That’s all the Church would need to say. Not sure why they have to have a big production about hiring someone (and spending a lot of money) to help write policies or however they phrased it.
