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!

Birthday Buddies

Yesterday was my brother Tommy's birthday! Tommy and Becky's birthdays are 1 day apart, so they have always been Birthday Buddies. I didn't get to post because i was working super late, and by the time i got home i pretty much just crashed, but i still want to put up a Happy Birthday one day late to Uncle Tommy! Tommy is the middle kid, between me and Bets. He is an incredibly hard working, super thoughtful, dedicated, funny and awesome brother. And to top it off he has the absolute cutest little kiddos ever. My neice Secily, and nephew Micah (who i have yet to meet, and i am dying for september to get here so i can hold that little cutie) are super cute and sweet. I can't wait to get Juneau and Secily together as they are only 3 months apart, and i think they will really hit it off.

anyway, i am so blessed to have such amazing siblings, and birthdays are a great time to remember how lucky I am to get to have these awesome people in my life!
The birthday boy and family!
