The Stickley family adventures started in Hawaii in 2005 when Cris and Emilie were married. The real excitement began in May 2008, when Nova was born. 2 short months later, our little June-Bug joined the family from all the way in Vietnam. The next few crazy years included Emilie being deployed to Afghanistan, while Cris and the girls moved back to Hawaii, then a long year of living apart (and a lot of trips across the Pacific Ocean), while Emilie remained in Colorado to complete her Army committment, and Cris had to stay in Hawaii for his job at the University.

In the summer of 2012, little Jude joined our family, and the whole gang reunited for good in Hawaii!

Follow our adventures, as we try to keep track of life with our 3 crazy kids, while keeping our friends and family updated on the happenings here in Hawaii!

Don and Nova Stickley


Grandma and Grandpa to some, more recently Mamaw and Pampaw to the great-grandchildren, Don and Nova Stickley have lived an extraordinary life in small town Ohio.

Lifelong farmers and world wide travelers, grandma and grandpa Stickley have taught their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren how to live life to the fullest. Their house is always filled with fun and laughter, and a favorite hangout for family get-togethers. Although now in their 8th decade, and married 60 years, it is not unusual to find grandma sitting on grandpa's lap, a twinkle in their eyes, as they still act like newly-weds.

A recent letter from Grandma Stickley read "we are so thankful to God for His many blessings in our life". It is obvious that this amazing couple lives a life full of God's Blessings!

We love you Mamaw and Pampaw!
