Today marks four years since bringing Nyx home. I can hardly believe that that chaotic baby has been with me this long. But I have never been so grateful for her presence in my life.

We celebrated by going to Dunkin, getting her a pup cup, taking the dogs on an extra long walk, and then snuggled at home for a little while.

Nyx has always brought out the crazy side and perfectly balanced us out. She makes us laugh nonstop and I’m excited to see how she will bond with our kids.

Later on, Brandon wanted to go fishing and with it being a nice day out, I decided to join. Typically I would have fished with him, it I wanted to read instead. So I packed up my book, a pillow, and a comfy chair.

We sat out here for a couple of hours soaking up the sun and enjoying the day. I was thankful that the rain held off for us.

It was a peaceful way to end the day, before tomorrow I tell my best friend our good news.
