What's going on, everybody? Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files Reality Recap Edition. I'm your host, Nick, joined by the birthday girl herself, my wife, Allie Joy.

**Susie Evans** (1:10)
Happy birthday!

**Nikki** (1:10)
She's over the hill, y'all.

**Natalie Joy** (1:12)
She is old as the hill. She's 28

**Susie Evans** (1:16)
Wow, that is crazy. That is gracious. Oh my goodness. I saw some pictures from a little birthday celebration this weekend.

**Nick Viall** (1:23)
Happy early birthday to Ciara. Her birthday is tomorrow. Well, it would be today if you're listening.

**Ciara Robinson** (1:28)
Yeah, thank you. Happy birthday, Ciara.

**Nick Viall** (1:29)
They're both today, in a way.

**Ciara Robinson** (1:32)
I'm older than the hill that Natalie is old on.

**Susie Evans** (1:35)
Yes. I know. I was calling out her being old. I'm like, as I'm several years older.

**Natalie Joy** (1:41)
Anyway, I forget I said that.

**Susie Evans** (1:44)
It's cool. It's cool.

**Ciara Robinson** (1:45)
I turn to dust.

**Nick Viall** (1:47)
Susie is also with us today. How are you doing, Susie?

**Susie Evans** (1:50)
Good. I also celebrated other people's birthdays this weekend. There's so many birthdays happening. Does anyone else feel that way?

**Natalie Joy** (1:56)
It's the world of Virgos.

**Nick Viall** (1:58)
I think there's a lot of people in the cold of winter who embrace their partner with love and affection. You know, eight to nine months later.

**Natalie Joy** (2:07)
My mom told me it was a birthday present for my dad. And I was like, that's more than I needed to know. You know, his birthday is December 10th.

**Susie Evans** (2:15)
Okay. He was a happy man.

**Ciara Robinson** (2:19)
I do hate being reduced on to a New Year's Eve party that went well.

**Susie Evans** (2:24)
Oh, yeah.

**Nick Viall** (2:24)
But going back, in a way that means you're a miracle. It kind of implies that for a moment, like your parents weren't hooking up because your dad was a pain in the ass, but it was his birthday. So your mom was like, fuck it.

**Susie Evans** (2:39)
Fine. His present. I will. That's so true.

**Nick Viall** (2:42)
And then any other day, it wouldn't have happened because they weren't hooking up. And so here you are, the miracle baby.

**Natalie Joy** (2:48)
So true. Way to spin it, honey.

**Susie Evans** (2:50)
Yeah, I love that.

**Natalie Joy** (2:53)
We've had a rager of a weekend.

**Nick Viall** (2:55)
We're up at the lake. So Lake Nick is out. He's wearing shorts. He's wearing flip flops.

**Natalie Joy** (2:59)
He's eating a lot of sugar.

**Nick Viall** (3:01)
I had a lot of sugar this weekend.

**Natalie Joy** (3:02)
Yeah.

**Susie Evans** (3:03)
I saw River on the sea dune.

**Natalie Joy** (3:06)
So cute, guys. That was actually the sweetest moment ever.

**Nick Viall** (3:10)
You know, it's really great right now. Like being at the lake every time I'm here, I always have like a fonder of appreciation of life and or just like what's going on in my world.
But, you know, I bought this house like right when we found out River was, Natalie was pregnant with River. So like there's always, you know, it was like a perfect time of like, you know, fantasizing about, okay, I'm gonna have a kid, you know, having the lake. It's so much, it was such about my childhood. I hope my child connects with the lake, yada, yada, yada. And so River's been up here, I don't know, 10, 12, I don't know. I don't know how many times, plenty. But she's so young, that every time she comes up here, and I don't know how long it'll last, maybe another year. But every time she comes up here, it's like the first time again.
