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!

!!!!Uncle Drew!!!!!

Meet Uncle Drew..... Drew is in college in New England, and was happy to visit us in Colorado this summer to watch the girls for 2 weeks while Cris is in Hawaii. The idea of taking care of 2 crazy two year olds didn't even phase him. The girls, of course, adored him from the first minute they met him, and Drew has taken this crazy house all in stride. Today was his first day watching the girls, and I had a 12 hour shift! He was brave enough to take them to the playground, the mall AND to see a movie!!! I was soooo thrilled that by the time I finally got out of work at 8 p.m., Drew and both girls were happy and having a great time.

I'll finish off this post with some unrelated photos of the girls from a trip we took to Garden of the Gods with Becky and Hope...
