Yeah, can you believe it? That cute pupoy I sent thinks MY pprch is HER porch! And she doesn't even know how to sit on a porch!!
And I explained to that little cuddlebug (yeah, that's one reason I picked her because she likes to cuddle) that certain things were mine.....like the porch and the woodstove?
Soooooo.....here's my solution and this is where you come in.....I'd like to order two different plaques.....
HAPPY HANNAH'S PORCH
HAPPY HANNAH'S WOODSTOVE
I mean, she can use them and all, but I just need to remind her the terms we agreed to before I dropped her off!
Oh, and another reason I'd like these, Jerry had us fly over that beautiful place you are staying and the wonderful view from your "jewelry making office" Yeah, I'd love to know it's made there! WOOF, WOOF! Talk about good energy! Did you notice a breeze when you took that picture? Yeah.........our wings flapping!
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!

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
Oh little Miss Happy Hannah
We all know that the porch and woodstove belong to you.....but it is very nice that you are letting the cuddlebug use them.
Love and kisses

You did good Happy Hannah, you did real good! She is perfect! I love the sign idea. Just a reminder you know.......who owns these 2 things, she can borrow them and all, but..
TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.
Very big grin!
Kathi and Murphy
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!
Hannah 🙂 I know ms Myrtle is trying to take over the wood stove & your porch but we know you will keep a good eye on her and let her know who is boss
Myrtle sure is getting bigger

Looks like "little" Myrtle is just trying to soak up all of your good energy, Hannah! Can you blame her? You're one amazing teacher. She will go very, very far as long as she is in your magical castle.
P.S. Tell your Momma she can PM us anytime about that request, it would be an honor.

Awww... Ms. Myrtle made our day!
Deb and Angel Lexie* Diagnosed at age 13. Tried radiation first; wish we had amputated upon diagnosis (even with lung mets). Joined Club Tripawd April 2014 & Lexie loved life on 3 legs! Advice: Start physical therapy as soon as your vet clears it, especially hydrotherapy if available :-) See Lexie pics here.

Miss Myrtle is a perfect pal!
