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!

library with daddy

today cris took the girls to the library to explore some cool reptiles and other animals at a special program. Of course Juneau was at the front of the line to pet all the cool animals. Nova, on the otherhand, preferred to observe from the sidelines :) The hedgehogs totally cracked her up. She told me it felt like petting rice.


yikes!!! hope this girl doesn't think her momma will ever allow a pet snake!!! because i do draw the line at reptiles for pets.


We got to take laura out to Juneau's favorite restaurant for dinner....Hibachi!!!! Our Hibachi chef was as little fire-crazy, and scared all 3 of the kids that were at our table by setting the entire grill on fire in a huge blaze. The other little 2 year old at the end of the table never really was able to pull it together, and her parents took turns holding her in the lobby of the restaurant after the whole blazing table incident. Luckily, Juneau's new BFF was there to hold her hand, and June-bug and Laura made it safely through the scary show :) (juneau is holding laura's hand tight while hiding her face behind her napkin!)


tomorrow we are hoping the weather will cooporate and we are planning to head over to red rock canyon for some rock climbing! should be a fun time!




i'll end with nova's recap over her dream last night "I had a dream about Unicorns, and Jesus was riding on one!" haha! not quite sure where these crazies come up with some of this stuff...but i love it!
