IN THE BEGINNING . . . THERE WAS CHRIS

Oh, my goodness! I got this picture today! This was May of 1980.

 My oldest nephew, Christopher Reid Mitchell, was a day or two old. 

Three months later, I began my 33 year teaching career! 

Chris was always my sidekick at the BYU football games and Jazz games, 

especially the Jazz playoffs and NBA Finals!!!

 His oldest child, Courtney, will graduate from high school in May. 

Chris is the first of the "Auntie Ann kiddos." 

Who knew there would be 6 nieces and nephews, 

17 great nieces and nephews...with maybe 2 or 3 in the future!

FAM AT THE FARM

On Thursday, June 14, we went to
Farm Country, aka "The Farm" at Thanksgiving Point.

This was the last place that I hadn't been tom that I can

get in with my"grandma pass" at Thanksgiving Point.

Grandma Laurel, Kim & kiddos, Ashley's kiddos, 
(Ashley was in Philadelphia with Jon), and

Heidi & kiddos went with me.

It was pretty fun!  We were there when it opened.
But, now we know that we need to go straight to
the pony ride, to avoid the long lines!
