the thornton family.






























Oh my goodness, I love this family. Dave and I met them about 14 years ago when we lived on Grandview Hill. I loved them immediately, and the more I got to know them, the more I admired. Mike and Jenny have great, great kids. I have often asked how they got SO good. Of course Jenny never has an answer. I want my children to be like hers. Katie is one of my kindred spirits. I was the Laurel advisor when she was 16-17. We had great times together. Great talks. We were friends before, and met up again when she was just a little girl. When I had the twins, the Thorntons, Sean and CJ included, took one of the babies every single sunday during church. It helped SO much, but more than that, it made me feel good. I loved that they loved my babies. They are just such GOOD people.

b & b.



































Banning and Brylee...aside from my own, and my twin sisters, possibly the most beautiful twins I have ever seen. :) Jaime is a beautiful mother. She is cool and calm. Her kids are loving and confident. I'm not going to lie, it made me miss the days of tiny Elizabeth and Emily. Those were wonderful, happy times. Twins are a true blessing.
