A year ago today I had a great girlfriend and a great pup

Today I have a great fiancee and two great pups. Progress!

Eko and Penny chipped in and got me a card and gift. The gift happens to be coupons for dog treats, but their hearts are in the right place

Eko whining for dinner, Penny attacking with kisses, me being foolish, Emily wondering how a nice girl like her got mixed up with us. A fitting photo, I think.

And the best gift of the year? 4.6

A winter-wonderland walk to the park with Emily and the pups

Life, in short, is good. No telling what this year will bring, but I’m certain I couldn’t ask for a better crew to go on the adventure with me.
