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!

brief update

we are vacationing on the north shore (in the rain!) with our family, so we can't post much, but here is a brief update until we are back in blog-land next week:

we survived the island-wide power outage on sunday. it was totally freaky.
we were almost smashed to smithereens in a high speed chase on a two-lane highway while driving to the North shore!
we are having a total blast, in spite of the daily downpours!
i had the christmas a 14 year old boy could only dream of - a nintendo wii, guitar hero world tour complete band kit, and a wii fit. pretty amazing.

We are having an unbelievable time with Mamaw, Papaw, Grandma, Grandpa, Coral, Ed, Alex, Lyndsey, Brent, Meghan, Casey, and Carmen....more to come!
