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!

Goodbye Aunt Becky!

Last night we said goodbye to Becky after 2 AWESOME weeks! It was so amazing to have her here. She spent the 2 weeks basically taking care of EVERYTHING that needed to be done in the house. We did a little bit of running around, but we really didn't spend much time doing the normal "hawaii" stuff.
On Sunday we went to the fancy Halekulani Hotel for Sunday Brunch. We had a really great time. They have quite an impressive spread of all different kinds of food.

To top it all off, she gave us the MOST INCREDIBLE gift.
As a gift to the Nova and Juneau (especially since we live so far away from everyone) she contacted our family members, and had them find a copy of their favorite children's book. Cool, huh? About to get a lot better - Everyone read their book and my sister downloaded them each to a CD, and then attached the CD to the inside cover of the book, so the girls can listen to their favorite books being read by family members! It's sooooo awesome. There are still books coming in the mail, and we are TOTALLY enjoying listening to everyone read their books. Even my little 4 year old niece participated with her own reading of "Where is Baby's Belly Button".

We are excited about our big trip to indianapolis this week. I'm a little nervous about the flight, but i really think it will be ok. Nova is getting so chubby and cute! We can't wait for her get get to meet the rest of her family!
