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!

Day 41: Aunt Coral!!

Posted by: Cris

The highlights of the day for all of us really begin and end with the arrival of Aunt Coral:

Waiting at the airport - She's coming soon...

Starting to get excited...


Starting to get REALLY excited...



Finally, there she is:





LOTS of hugs and kisses...
and excitement...



and hanging all over Aunt Coral...

Heading for the car...


Nova was more interested in just one thing...

"I want to do it by myself"...


That bag was actually not light, especially to a 2.5 year old...but obviously that is part of the appeal to Nova.

Next to the NEX for dinner with a stop by the Christmas tree:



Aunt Coral is already in full spoil mode:
"Of course you can play games on my phone while we're waiting for our food"
"Of course I'll read a book to you before bed"
"Of course I'll read 5 more books to you before bed."

So, the girls are totally excited and have all sorts of plans laid out for Aunt Coral for the next few days. Tops on the list "When Aunt Coral gets here we can watch Wizard of Oz with her!"
