We adopted Rosie, our Boxer, back in 2001, and we’re guessing she was about 2 years old then. So we knew the chances of her seeing it into 2014 would be slim – we knew she was slowing down. On Friday morning, given some symptoms and tests, the vet advised it was her time, so with heavy hearts we said farewell to her. The end of an era. Rosie was one of the few constants in our lives over the past 12 years, she was gentle and loyal and we loved her so much. RIP Rosie xx
Rosie when we adopted here – she had no hair on her back bless her but it all grew back:

On one of our adventures in North Carolina:
The children were sad but quite pragmatic so we aimed to keep the weekend as normal as possible. Yesterday we headed out to the mall and then to their favorite BBQ joint for a treat. We talked about angels, old dogs and puppies, and now they seem quite at peace with the outcome. We still have Tennyson here, and Poppy has requested that when we get our next girl dog that she has a tail – so we’re moving on…
It was a gorgeous day so I decided to go full on with the spring attire:)
Trousers – Zara // Jacket – Zara // T-shirt – Gap // Sneakers – Isabel Marant Bobbys
Last night was date night so we toasted Rosie before eating.
