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!

special princess...

tonight i was rocking juneau before bed. she LOVES to be rocked before bed.
I told her i loved her, and that she was my special little girl.
She looked me right in the eyes, and as serious as could be said "Mommy, you're my special little princess"

those are the things i'm tucking away to keep me going during 6 months in Afghanistan.

To those of us who know how devoid of "princess language", your house hold is, juneau's words are especially precious!
Love you, Mom
