Rest in Peace Jonni Hill Mueller

Jonni passed away Friday after the rear tire blew on Curt's Envoy.  Her smile and laughter will be missed.  I'll never forget her Bandanna Dog.   Here's to the Good times we shared.  Rest In Peace Jonni.

Happy Mother's Day

Have absolutely loved becoming a Mother.  As the boys and I looked for pictures of us we realized there is not many.  I'm usually behind the camera. Hee Hee.  I've always wanted my children's childhood to be magical.  Enriched with lots of knowledge.  Life is hard but with good memories to fall back on it makes the hard times easier.  Hope you enjoy and Have Yourself a Happy Mother's Day.
