Kade Turns 2!!!!

2010-06-30T11:13:00.000-07:00

I can't believe my little guy turned 2. It seems like just yesterday I was bringing him home from the hospital. He has the cutest little personality and we have enjoyed him soooo much. "Happy Birthday Kade!!!" We love you.

Preschool Graduation

2010-06-06T18:28:00.000-07:00

Ty has officially graduated from preschool and is ready to go to Kindergarten. I think it is so cute to see these little kids in caps and gowns and they make them look so official. I have to admit I got a little teary eyed. I am such a baby!! I can't believe I am going to have two kids in school. Where does the time go????

1st Grade Program

2010-06-06T18:21:00.000-07:00

Jaser and Enzo (Best Buddies)

Jase had his 1st grade program the other day and they did a tribute to Midway. It was so cute and they sang the cutest songs. Jase has had the best teacher for 1st grade and we are going to be so sad when we don't have her next year.

Vegas, Baby!!!

2010-04-17T08:30:00.000-07:00

So Dave and I decided to take the kids on a little vacation for Spring Break. ( Ok, so I decided and Dave came along with it. ) We decided to go to Las Vegas and I found this really great place called Tahiti Village. It was a really clean place off the strip. It had a bedroom and a little kitchenette, which is perfect for my little family. The pools were nice and shallow for the boys and they had a little baby beach for them to play in. Best of all, it was a good price. So if any of you are going to Vegas soon you should check it out.

Birthday Party Time!

2010-04-17T08:23:00.001-07:00

I figured since my last post was clear back in December, it was time for a new one.
Jase and Ty recently both had birthday's, so we have been doing some major celebrating. Here are a few pictures from there friend party at Kamas Pool. Wow, I really need to learn to take more pictures.

Happy Holidays!!!

2010-01-10T13:24:00.000-08:00

We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a great New Year. I am terrible at the blogging thing, so like usual I will just post a bunch of pictures from the last little while. We were lucky enough to spend the holidays with family and friends. Until next time...

Kade loved his little dinosaur Santa brought him. So did Tate!

Jase and Maddi, little buddies!!!

Ty and Grandpa George.

Santa comes Christmas eve to my moms home.

he takes last minute requests.

...or gives last minute suggestions.

Cascade Springs!!!

2009-11-06T17:12:00.000-08:00

Last Sunday was Stake Conference which means no church, right? Just kiddin. The kids were still coughing a little so we decided to stay home from Stake Conference and by 2pm we needed to get out of the house. Dave and I feel so lucky to have such a beautiful place right up the road from us. We took the kids up to Cascade Springs and played around. I am sure snow is right around the corner and it was nice to enjoy some good weather while we still can. Here's to hoping this weather lasts a bit longer.

Happy Halloween!!!

2009-11-06T17:04:00.000-08:00

We had some trunk or treat fun and we were out of the cold in no time. Perfect for little ones. Here are a couple pictures from the night. I am sure you can tell by the picture that Kade was not a happy camper so this is the best we could do of the three of them together.

Family Pictures

2009-09-18T14:11:00.000-07:00

If you can't tell I am really bad at blogging. We just got our family pictures taken and here is the final product. We got some pretty good ones considering what the shoot was like. I think my older boys forgot how to smile and Kade was sick with a runny nose and he had a huge bruise on his head. I am sure they put in many hours photo shopping. Anyways, Enjoy!!!

Kade's 1st Birthday!!!

2009-07-10T12:18:00.000-07:00

I cannot believe that my baby is 1 already. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital. How time flies when you are having fun. Kade has been the sweetest, easiest little boy ever. I love him so much and I am so glad he came to our family.

Here are some pictures of the Shin Dig...

Aunt Alli !!!

That is a pretty cool place to put a cake if you ask me.

(Didn't really think about how that would look in our pictures.)

Cool new motorcycle!!!

Thanks to all the fam that came and celebrated Kade 1st birthday. We had a great time and

are so lucky to have such a great family.

Happy Birthday Kade. We love You!!!

Quick Update.

2009-06-27T14:09:00.001-07:00

So I have been really busy and haven't blogged in a while, but here is a quick update on our family.

Jase caught his first fish!

Ty had his first T-ball game and he did awesome.

Ty graduated from his 3 year old preschool class. Yea!!!!

And we had Jaser's 6th Birthday Party...

Star Wars ofcourse. Thanks to my party planner Rebecca it got "The best Party Ever" award from a bunch of the boys. (By the way, Jase is hidden behind the other boy.)

So I know this isn't a very exciting post, but I had way to much to catch up on. Maybe next time I won't wait so long to make a new post. HA.

Ty turns 4!!!

2009-04-08T19:47:00.001-07:00

I can't beliver how big my boys are getting. Ty turned 4 on the 30th of March and we were able to have one big Shin Dig for him and Brandon at Boondocks. Thanks to everyone for coming and making it such a blast!!!

Ty's Imagination

2009-03-03T09:03:00.000-08:00

Ty and Jase were playing in the bedroom when Ty came out wearing this...

I asked him what is was and he said it was his jet pack. I love to see their little imaginations grow. This is definitely one of my favorite parts of being a mom.

Cubscouts Blue and Gold Banquet

2009-03-03T08:53:00.000-08:00

So, Dave and I were recently called to be the Cubmaster and Cubmaster Assistant for our ward. We had worked all week getting everything ready for the dinner on Thursday night. We were at the church and finally had everything almost ready to start when this happened...

Ty went head first in to the cabinent in the kitchen and split his forehead wide open. Blood was gushing out. Dave and I had to hand everything over and spend our first event for Cubscouts at the Emergency room.
I get the feeling this is what raising boys is all about. I can't believe how brave Ty was while he was getting his stitches and he made sure they gave him the sticker they had promised before we left.
Hopefully next month's pack meeting will go better!!!!

PrEsIDeNt'S DaY WeEkeNd!!!

2009-02-15T20:19:00.000-08:00

President's Day Weekend most of us were sick so we decided to go camping in our Master Bedroom. Dave put up our tent, which is for six to eight people, and the boys slept in it all weekend long. It basically took up our entire bedroom, but the boys had a ball. Don't dads have the best ideas!

All The Boys!!!

2009-01-30T18:46:00.000-08:00

I haven't posted in awhile, so I just thought I would put some random pictures of the boys and their friends up.

Isn't Ty the happiest kid ever???

Lunch Time!!!

Hopefully something worthy of a blog post will happen soon.

DeJaVu!!!

2008-11-24T18:47:00.000-08:00

Kade turned 5 months on Sunday and I can't belive how fast it has gone by. I was looking through some pictures and I can't believe how much he looks like Jase. Here are some pictures I found of them close to the same age. I think Jase is a little bit older, but Kade is so big it is about the same.

Kade's first bite!!!!

2008-11-18T09:30:00.000-08:00

Kade wasn't sleeping very well at night and was trying to grab any food I had in my hand, so we decided to try some rice cereal and see if that would help. He wasn't so sure about it the first couple of times, but now he really seems to like it. Here are his first bites we captured on camera.

Happy Halloween!

2008-11-01T14:01:00.000-07:00

Happy Halloween! We had Star Wars heroes and villains and incredible hulk. I tried to talk Ty into being Luke and keeping the Star Wars theme, but he wouldn' t have it. We went over to the church ate chilli and did a trunk or treat. What a great idea that is. No more walking door to door and you get it all done in about an hour. Afterwards we went to our neighbors for more food and games. Dave shocked everyone with his tennis pro outfit. He was wearing my short shorts under his pants and he pulled off his pants with one tug and showed off those lovely Greenwood chicken legs. Sorry, I didn't get a picture of that. We have so much candy I am sure my kids are going to be bouncing off the walls for weeks, but hey that is the best part. Candy!!! I hope all of you had a wonderful Halloween and I am sorry we missed all of the fam this year and all of the little ones costumes.

Bitter, Sweet

2008-08-30T15:31:00.000-07:00

Well today my little boys got a little bigger. Jase had his first day of kindergarten and Ty had his first day of preschool. The morning started off okay and we seemed to have plenty of time to get ready. But getting us all dressed, fed, and the baby fed took a lot longer than I had anticipated. The boys wanted to wear their new shoes and I hadn't planned on that. I thought I could talk them into their crocs for a couple more days, but nope they wanted their new ones that require socks and tying them. I looked over at the clock and we had to make it to the bus stop in 3 minutes. We ran out the door and half way down the street I had to pick up Ty because he was slowing us down. So here I am pushing the stroller and holding Ty and I have Jase at my side running as fast as he can. Just in time for the bus to pull up and get on it. After Jase got on the bus and was pulling away, I thought I hope he remembers where to go. This feeling of worry went through my body as I realized all of the things I had forgotten to tell him. All of the sudden my little boy was off to school and I would not be their by side to make sure he was okay. It was an awful feeling. No time to waste though, I had to get Ty to preschool. I always thought that Ty going to preschool would be a challenge and I would have to stay there with him of awhile. Buy my little Ty has grown up. He walked right in and showed his new teacher his school shoes and said "good bye, mom." I couldn't believe it. I went back to car with the baby and realized I have over two hours with just me and him. What was I going to do with myself. Sleep sounds good. Anyways, I picked up the boys at the bus stop from school and they had a blast. I can't believe how fast they have grown up! This is the beginning of a new era for us and I have to stay it is a lot harder then I thougt it would be. I wish I could keep them in a little bubble and keep them this big forever, but I can't. I love my boys and it has been so much fun watching them experience life. I can't wait to see what comes next.

More Pics of Kade!!

2008-07-22T15:30:00.000-07:00

My neighbor just got a new camera and asked if she could practice taking pictures of Kade. So I gladly jumped at the chance to get some pictures taken of my new babe and here is how they turned out. Thanks Kim!! They turned out so good and I am so grateful to have them.

Nap Time!!

2008-07-14T14:29:00.000-07:00

I don't know why but there is something about holding a baby that makes me so tired. (Dave too.) I think I have a picture like this with all three kids. Dave hasn't had much time to bond with Kade so here is one of the only pics I have of them together. Don't they look like twiners? I think so.

Brotherly Love!

2008-07-07T15:42:00.003-07:00

Jase and Ty seem to really love their new brother. Ok, maybe Jase more then Ty. I am so surprised at the big brother Jase has turned into and he has been such a good helper. Jase loves to hold his new baby brother and watch cartoons. This time around it is so nice to have a child old enough to help a little! Thanks Jaser!!

Brotherly Love!

Kade Paul Greenwood

2008-07-06T18:35:00.000-07:00

On June 23, 2008 we added another baby boy to our family. Kade Paul Greenwood was born at 12:50 pm weighing 7lbs 9 0z. and 20.5 inches long. He is such a blessing to our family and we just adore this new little angel that has come into our home. We love you Kade!!!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!!

2008-02-17T21:53:00.000-08:00

We definitely have had quite the winter this year living up in Midway. Here our a couple of pictures of the snow we came back to after our family trip to Disneyland the first week of February. Our neighbor was kind enough to rent a kabota to clear our driveway before we came home, or we would not have been able to make it up our driveway over the 5ft snow pile. So anyways, here they are.

And then there were three...

2008-02-13T16:09:00.000-08:00

So I had my ultrasound for the baby a couple of weeks ago and I found out that I am having another boy. I adore my boys, but I just never pictured myself having three boys running around the house. I was really hoping for a girl so my family could be complete, but I guess there is another plan for us. So if anyone has some suggestions for boys names we would love to hear them, because we are at a definite loss on this one.

Super Heroes!

2007-10-24T20:25:00.001-07:00

We got the boys Halloween costumes early this year, and they wore them evey day for weeks.

Jase's first soccor game!

2007-10-24T20:21:00.001-07:00

Jase had his first soccor game this year and it was so much fun to watch. Once he caught on to the whole idea of kicking a ball between two cones, he really liked it.

My first time!

2007-10-21T09:39:00.000-07:00

So I just found out last night I am totally out of the loop in this blogging stuff, so I thought I would give it a try. I don't really know why anyone would be interested in what I am up to, but it gives me something to do. Heather you may be the only one who looks at this, so I hope you enjoy it. And thanks for giving me something else to do besides surfing the Internet and shopping online. (My husband thanks you too.)
