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!

colorado springs

we are visiting our new state of residence. we wanted to try to find a place to live before arriving in July. haven't had too much luck yet, but we still have 3 days to look.

the trip was super smooth. we had an overnight flight to california, and the girls both slept (rather fitfully in juneau's case) pretty much the whole trip. The trip home may be a little more challening, as we have a direct 8.5 hour flight from denver to colorado in the middle of the day. they are going to go insane!

anyway, our first day here was so cold i truly thought there was no way i could live here. The middle of may, and everyone was wearing coats around! Thankfully, we found out it was an exceptionally cold day for may, and today the weather turned around, and was quite sunny and warm.

it is beautiful here. i think we are going to really love it.
