Hey Guys...Sorry!!!
I know we haven't been keeping our blog up very well...actually...to be honest...we kinda suck at it. I, specifically, am bad at it cuz I'm kinda the only one that every does it. Lol. (This is still Camille by the way). Anyways, UPDATES!! First of all, all of us have facebook accounts except Chante. So, yeah...
Gregg- Is doing fine. He was just released from the bishopric (he was the 1st councilor). Now he's a member of the High Council. He's kinda sad about it because his two best friends are the Bishop and the 2nd councilor and now he doesn't get to hang out with them all the time. :-(
My dad's been having a difficult time lately with his Crohn's Disease. He tells us kids not to tell people this, and if you ask him about it, he'll tell you that he's fine, and he is, technically. Stress just makes his disease worse and with my mom having cancer and the economy and all, he's had a lot of stress. Prayers are always appreciated. Anyways, change of subject-he's taking me up to college with my mom on the fourth of september and then he and my mom are going to spend a few days at the cabin. That's the plan so far at least. :-D Anyways, if you don't have his cell phone number and you would like to talk to him you can email me at supermormonchick@gmail.com and I'll give it to you. My dad says I'm not allowed to post his number on the internet where anyone can see it.
Lynn- My mom is doing great. For anyone that didn't hear (which should be close to no one cuz my dad called just about everyone), my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. At first the doctors thought she had a stage two or three and they thought that she was going to have to do chemotherapy and all that fun stuff, and then when she had her partial massectomy they took three of the lymph nodes (which is standard procedure) and found out that actually she only had stage 1A breast cancer which is the best that she could possibly have. She won't have to do chemo or radiation and she can choose whether or not to do the other option (I forget what it's called because she doesn't like that option so I don't think she's going to do it...but I think it starts with a "t"). So, funny story (to my family, idk if anyone else will think it's funny...) 30 minutes after mom, me and my dad found out my mom had cancer (chad, chelsea, and chante were all away from home and found out later) my dad says to my mom, "Let's go to the movies" and, of course, my mom said, "no". So he says instead, "let's go out to dinner" and she says no again. and then a little while later he says something along the lines of, "Let's go buy you a car". He was serious. :-D ...no we don't have a new car. My mom said no to that too.
Chante- Tay just got home from college...a month ago... :-D she had a ton of fun and now she's just working to get back. she works at the movie theatre and at the same Jamba Juice that I work at. Which is a ton of fun. Her first day was today. She's not married yet, or engaged, or seriously dating a guy, but we won't hold that against her. It's good to have her home again. She got a new game for her Birthday called "spore" and she thinks that everyone should get it and play it.
Me- I'm headed off to college soon. My mom, dad and I leave on the 4th. I'm super excited about it. I'm emailing an Elder right now, and writing two others. All of them are just friends though, so no real prospects...I don't think... My last day at Jamba is this Friday and I'm going to miss it a lot, but they said I can come back and work on spring break and christmas break and this summer so that's good. I get to go see my adorable little cousins in Sweet Home Oregon soon and I'm SOOOO excited!!! They're just too cute! I wish I lived closer to family on either side cuz I love babysitting cousins, but I don't get to that often.
Chelsea- Is learning to drive!! It's really funny cuz she keeps trying to drive with no hands and doesn't seem to understand the concept that some cars pull different dirrections. It's really funny. She's a good little driver though. She's going into Tenth grade. My mom has a Sophomore and Freshman in High School and a Sophomore and Freshman in College. Lol. Chelsea is adorable. if you want to see for yourself, go check out either her or my pics on facebook. She's engrossed in summer reading right now because she's going to be in Honors 10th grade English and she has to read three really lame novels (I won't name them cuz I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings if they like them). Anyways, I think they're racist books. She doesn't like them either...probably cuz I don't like them. :-D She's super excited for school. And especially excited for chad to be in school with her.
Chad- is cute like always. He's also excited to be going into High School. He's younger than everyone else, but it's ok cuz he's way smart...lucky... Anyways, he still enjoys playing video games and computer games and the occasional You-gee-Oh (I'm sure I spelled that really wrong...) He's in boyscouts and is already a great missionary. He brings his friends to activities and church all the time. Two of them go regularly. One of them wants to give a talk in church on some sunday and wants to be baptised when he's old enough (18). Which I think is really awesome. my mom is plotting on how to keep him state side when he leaves because she can hardly stand the thought of the possibility that he'll be cross country let alone out of the US. Lol...that's not that odd though. She's also buying books for her grandchildren, (the ones she doesn't have yet...) lol. So whatever.
Anyways, we love you all and hope that everything is going well for you and your families!
Thank you so much for all of your prayers and fasting for my mom and dad and our family. We really appreciate them and know that my mom's results were so good solely because of the Lord and your prayers and fasts. thank you so much!!!!! You are an amazing family and we love you all so much!
Love, Gregg, Lynn, Chante, Chelsea, Chad, and Camille (although I vote I love you all the most because I'm the only one out of the six of us that ever updates this blog! :-D and, obviously, updating blogs = love [don't use that against me if I don't update it for a long time again]).
Have an amazing day/night/morning! Love, The Gregg Greene Family

Hey Fam!
Hey Everybody!
What's up? Not much is going on here, although my mom says we have a ton going on...but she hardly knows how to get onto the blog, let alone update it and tell you what ton of stuff we're up to! Lol! I'll have to teach her sometime, but for now, I guess you're stuck with me. This is Camille again by the way.
Dad has been getting over a cold lately. He went to a Bishopric meeting and caught whatever our Bishop had. Mom's kinda irritated at him because according to her, he's a grown man and should know better than to hang out with sick people, or something like that. It's kinda funny and a little adorable. Lol. Oh yeah, and my dad hurt his finger. Some lady tried to help him load a sofa into the back of her truck and she wasn't very helpful. To make a long story short, she ended up pulling the sofa out of his grip and squishing his finger between the heavy sofa and the metal truck. It hurt lots, it broke the tip of his finger and his finger nail turned purple and swelled up and was really gross and started falling off and we've been painting it to stop it from catching it's edges on stuff while he was working. It has worked well for the last month but today the last little bit of nail was pulled off. The color looks better, but it's painful he says.
Mom has been working away at selling insurance. She's been doing pretty well too and we are all really proud of her. She's actually been really busy, running all around Central and Eastern Oregon and I think that's why she thinks we're all so busy. I know she is! Anyways, she's also been fulfilling her calling as a Young Women's Laurel's Adviser. She teaches our class like every Sunday or every other Sunday and all of us young women love her lesson's. She's an amazing teacher. Mom really is like a Jane of all trades. She's been busy keeping house, doing taxes, working, running kids around, and so much more. It's incredible. I don't think I even begin to know or understand all that she does for our little family.
Chante is having a ton of fun at college. She's loving it and we're so glad! But, we're all more than ready for her to come home! She'll be home on like April 10th or 11th! I'm super excited because I've missed her a lot and I know my mom has missed her a lot too. Everyone has felt the impact of her not being at home anymore and I can't imagine what will happen when she grows up and gets married! I don't really know what we're going to do! We'll miss her so much...but that's not for a while from now... So, she changed her major from Computer something to Computer Engineer. I don't remember what her old major was. I think it was Computer Science, which is now her minor. She's gone on a couple of dates and is making friends and we're all so happy for her!
Camille (me) hasn't been up to much. I'm just loving life as a senior. I'm excited to get out of high school and into college. Oh yeah, I was accepted to the Fall-Winter term at BYU-Idaho. I leave this September. My Major is Spanish Education and my Minor is English Education. I'm still working at Jamba Juice and my mom thinks I should tell you this, for the interview (which was this last may i think), (it was a group interview with 15 people) I was asked if I sing songs in the shower and which ones I sing if I sing any at all and then they said that I had to sing whichever song I sang in the shower. I, obviously not thinking, sang the first song that came to mind which happened to be the one off of the Lion King that Zazoo sings that goes, "I got a lovely bunch of coconuts. doo da lee doo. there they are a standing in a row! bum, bum, bum. big ones, small ones..." it goes on, but I stopped at about "big ones" because it took me that long to figure out why everyone in the entire room was laughing at me. And then I turned bright red and laughed too. But whatever, I got hired and I still work there, and they love me, naivite and all. Lol. Oh and my mom thinks y'all should know that I got rid of my boyfriend that you didn't know I had cuz we only lasted 3 weeks. If you want to know why, call (or email) my dad, it's one of his favorite stories to tell and he laughs through the whole thing usually.
Chelsea has been doing really well she placed 2nd and 4th in Swimming JV Districts which is really good, especially for a freshman! She's been enjoying high school and making lots of new friends. She went to a dance this last Saturday and met lots of new boys. Three guys hovered around her the entire time. One was a freshman, one was a sophomore and one was a junior. She gets all the luck. She's a really good flirt and she's absolutley gorgeous! ...so of course guys follow her around. Let's see, she's working on saving money for EFY, and she's super excited to go back. She absolutely loved EFY last year. She went to the BYU-Idaho campus. This year she wants to go to Tacoma Washington. She is doing well in school and I'm fairly sure she signed up for AP classes next year, even though she'll only be a sophomore! What can I say, she's brilliant. She loves history, and we think that eventually she'll do something with history in the future.
Chad has been spending a lot of time with a girl named Ashley, she's really nice and they are adorable. They don't even know they are flirting. Which makes it funnier. Right now their nick name is Chashley, because if you can find one of them, you can usually find the other one. He's also doing well in school. He's in 8th grade right now and is excited to graduate and get into high school. He's also just got into the young men's program...about a year ago actually. He's almost 13. He turns 13 in June. he's busy working on his first class in boy scouts right now. He loves playing the Wii and his age was 29...until me and my best friend Jerricha decided to "help" him and now he's like 70. He was pretty proud of his 29 though. Which is odd because he is only 13, but I shouldn't be one to talk because i'm like 35, so ya know, 29's looking pretty good! He's looking forward to joining the Swim Team with Chelsea next year and he's excited that they'll be in the same school again. He really loves being able to see her during school. They're adorable together (Chad and Chelsea). His favorite class right now is a mixture between Geometry, Art and Science. He's, of course, brilliant too. He skipped a grade so he's young for an 8th grader, but that's ok because that means that when he's a senior it won't be creepy for him to be dating a sophomore. Which he doesn't really realize yet, but it has its perks and i'm sure he'll notice that someday. Probably after his mission. Which is good. He's already excited about his mission. If he had a choice he'd love to go to somewhere with a foreign language. He'd love to go to Spain or France but mom wants him to stay in the US. Preferably at home. She worries a lot. And we worry about her worrying. It's kinda a viscous circle. lol.
Grandpa Wayne and Grandma Connie came to visit us and we were all so glad to see them! We've missed all of you guys so much! It was really nice to get to spend some time with them and we had a lot of fun! And, if you guys are reading this, thank you so much for looking after Chante and visiting her, it means a lot to her and she tells us all about it all the time and we're very grateful for all of our family that has made her transition to college and being away from home easier. Thank you so much Grandpa Wayne and Grandma Connie, Uncle Jim and Aunt Joanne, and Uncle Travis and Aunt Becky and everybody else! We all appreciate it and love you so much! It's nice to know we'll all be eternal families forever together.
We love and miss you all! Have an amazing day!
Love,
Camille, Lynn, Gregg, Chad, Chelsea, and Chante

Hi!
Hey, guess what? Our family finally has a blog! It's about time. This is Camille. Let's see, what has our family been up to lately? Not much to be honest.
Gregg--just got a new blender. It's advertised as the "Jamba" blender and is the same brand that Jamba has. He loves it and it has been helping him absorb nutrients and stuff so he's doing really well right now, that's very exciting for all of us! We're very happy for him. He's currently serving as First Counselor in the Bishopric with two of his really good friends.
Lynn--just got a new job as an insurance agent. She's helping a lot of people and really doing an amazing job at it. She has four leads and two sells already and she's only been working for two or three days. We're very blessed and we know it. She has also been healthy lately, which we're grateful for. Mom is serving as a Laurel Adviser in young womens so she's in class with me every sunday which is a ton of fun!
Chante--is heading on her way to college soon and she's very excited...and a little nervous. She'll be going to BYU-Idaho. We're all very proud of her and excited for her! She's been working at Regal Cinemas and has been having a lot of fun there. She's very cheerful and her bosses absolutely love her positive attitude. She'll be great at college. She has her own cell phone now. And that's exciting too.
Camille--(Me) I just turned 18 yesterday and I got a cell phone for my birthday. It's my first cell phone ever so of course, I'm psyched. I've already gone through like, two boyfriends this year, so I'm giving up on guys until college now, and writing missionaries. I'm working at Jamba Juice and it's a lot of fun. I applied to BYU-Idaho two weeks ago and am anxiously awaiting a response!
Chelsea--is absolutely adorable. She's growing up so fast! She's a freshman this year. She has a million guys around her all the time. She's quite the little boy magnet! She's on the swim team this year and is doing great. She's also doing really well in school. I don't think she knows where she wants to go to school yet. But that's ok, she's only a freshman. She's having fun with that.
Chad--is incredibly cute! He has a girl that he flirts with all the time and it's so adorable! He's 12 now, in 8th grade. He's a deacon and enjoys passing the sacrament and all the other duties and priviledges he has. He's a really good "Peter Priesthood" and we're all so proud of him! He's a lot like his daddy, incredibly easy-going and laid back. He's a lot of fun to be around. He's also doing really well in school right now. Enjoying his last year in middle school and all. He's learning to make all sorts of things in school in art. He's brilliant and pretty much good at anything he tries.
So, that's our family in a nut shell. If you'd like, we'd love to hear from you! We'll try to update our blog often (I'll probably update it the most). Our family email is greene.family85@gmail.com all of us have our own emails though, so if you want an individual person's email or phone number (we're all verizon) you can email us at our family's email and we'll get back to you! Thanks and have an amazing day!
Luv,
Gregg, Lynn, Chante, Camille, Chelsea, and Chad
