Hair Cuts!!!

I couldn't take it any more! I try to grow the boys hair out for the winter to keep their heads warm, but I was tired of having to brush their hair every morning and trying to keep their fine blonde hair down in the back (I don't know how you parents with girls make time to do hair every morning! I guess that's why I am blessed with boys!!) So, here is a before pic....
And some after pics......I did put a little gel in their hair, so it's hard to see the full effect! Andrew was hiding a nice scab underneath his hair. Mark and I have no idea how he got it!

See you in two years mom and dad Thornley!!

Mark's parents were set apart as missionaries on Tuesday night (Feb. 26th). They left for New Zealand this morning. They are the new director's of the temple vistors center in Hamilton. We are going to miss them so much, but are very excited for them at the same time!
Unfortunatly Mark's only sister and her husband were out of town, but all of Mark's brother's were able to attend the setting apart. We all went to dinner at the Roof after and had way too much to eat!
Dave and Stephanie Thornley, Steve Thornley, Brian and Jean Thornely, Bob Thornley, Jon, Stoker and Rebekah Thornely, Mark and Heidi Thornley.
Sorry, it's so blurry. We have a good camera, we just don't know how to change the settings on it!

I'll play!

PhotobucketOkay, Kathryn, I'll play. Here are 10 random things about me and I included a random pic of me taken about a year and a half ago.

1. I only had 3 wisdom teeth. Mark only had two. I wonder how many our kids will have...
2. I have never broken a bone.
3. One of my biggest pet peeves is picky eaters!!
4. I despise dusting. This is a job I always leave for Mark. I do like to vacuum though.
5. By learning to blog, I am spending way too much time on the computer.
6. I am currently the YW's president of my ward, and it is the hardest calling I have ever had. That's including teaching early morning seminary.
7. I can't wait to not be pregnant and get back into running and get my body back!!
8. I love shoes, but I don't really love shopping.
9. I lived in only one house during my childhood and lived there until I got married at age 20. My parents still live there. Since that time though, I have moved 5 times.
10. I have donated my hair twice to Locks of Love, and hope to do it again in 2 years!

If anyone reads this, I tag you to write 10 random things about you on your blog!

I never thought I would do this




Okay, here I am 28 weeks pregnant. I never thought I would post a pic of myself "with child" on the internet for all to see. It's more for future reference than anything else. Plus, I wanted to post something and I didn't know what. So here I am. This pregnancy has been hard. I feel so lucky to be having another little boy and I love my kids more than anything, but I hate being pregnant. I am now in my 30th week and I have 9 weeks to go (I will probably be induced a week early if this baby isn't here by then). I have many unpleasent pregnancy symptoms this time around, but I will spare you the details for all the people out there who get embarrassed by such things.
Our boys have been pretty sweet about the death of President Hinckley. On Saturday during the funeral, we all watched it together. The boys watched almost the entire thing. Almost every morning since his death, Andrew will wake up and tell me, President Hinckley died today. It has been a good experience to talk about death and spiritual things.
Will it ever stop snowing here in Cache Valley???? Many wards in our stake cancelled church today because of the snow. If it keeps up, Mark won't have work tomorrow. I am quite sad that I can't really do anything to enjoy the snow and cold weather such as sledding, skiing, and iceskating. For our YW activity on Tues., the YW are going ice skating, while I sit and watch. I really hope the next two months go by quickly.
One more thing.....the Super Bowl just ended.....yay NYG!!!!!!!!!!
