I can't believe 22 months ago these 2 little monsters were born. Sassy made sure that I would have my hands full 🙂 If I can't have Sassy I am glad she brought them to me 🙂 Happy Birthday girls.

Hard to believe they are almost to the terrible TWOs already! What a couple of sweeties. 
Kathi and the Turbotail April Angel
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
AAAAAADORRRRRRABLE X 2 !!!!
Of course...X 2. everything! Potty training, puppy destruction, feeding time, pooping time, play time...and best of all, love and snuggle time. X 2 !!
I think no matter what, we'll all still think of them as puppies.
Okay..is that Snickers with the pearly whites toothy grin and Jazz chilling in the background?
Yeah, Sassy REALLY did bring you EXACTLY what you needed, as well as Uncle Bosch!
They really are cute as can be...and pretty too! I just love big head smoochable mugs!
Ice cream and cake for their 22 month birthday.....and steak for dessert
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE times a gazillion!!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
As you know, we're having trouble posting on blogs, but I did get to read yours. I LOVE your comments! LOL!!!!
I do think we should have more than one picture though! HINT! We love "the girls"!

"Terrible Twos" times two! I can barely handle Jasper Lily's terrible twos (anyone want a dog that likes to spend time taking plastic containers off a kitchen counter?!?).
Happy Almost birthday kids!!!!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Yeah, I know problems with posting I tried on Katrina's last night about 50 times and kept getting the "easy tiger" message. Let me see if I can get a few more of the girls pictures up in between a call (working).

Hoppy Birthday girls!
It's so fun to see them grow up before our eyes. They sure are beautiful.
Hope you have a fun celebration! Treats for everypawdy!

Happy Birthday sweet girls! ! They are all totally adorable! Love all the pictures.
Steak and ice cream all around!

May you finally be healthy and running free at the Rainbow Bridge. Until we meet again my sweet boy!
Beautiful, beautiful girls! And Bosch is a handsome AND patient fella' too!
I think I can distinguish them now. Bosch, of course, is bigger and has some grey on his mug and Jasmine has more "tan" marking on her mug than Snickers.
Thanks for the smiles! It's ALWAYS a delight to see pics of the pack!
Lots a d lots of love!
