So anyway, I meant to get on here yesterday. I wanted to record when we actually got Abby. We picked her up yesterday and she's been great. She's loving and fun. She's got a lot of energy, but she's not overly hyper even though she's only a year old. You girls practically screamed when you got off the bus yesterday. It was priceless! And we were so happy to have made you all so happy. I know you've been waiting so long to get a pet again. It was nice to be able to get one for you. and so far you've all been really great about helping to take care of her, getting her water and walking her and playing with her. Deanna, you've even helped me try to paint her toenails. LOL! Too bad she wouldn't let us finish. Now she's walking around with one toe nail red! : ) Maybe she'll let us finish it sometime, bu that's not likely. She hates the smell - I can't really blame her for that one. They do kind of stink. Okay, they really stink. Ha ha!
So anyway, Dad's making his gumbo tonight for dinner. I can't wait - it's going to be so yummy. I love it when he cooks and not just because I don't have to! Of course that is a very good reason to love it! Dad always cooks so good. I'm better with the baking but I have to admit that I've gotten really good at cooking. I guess it really does just take practice. I'm hoping to make a Guidry cookbook - a new tradition for our family. You know like a collection of my favorite recipes, all the ones you guys love. Then I'll hand a copy of it down to all of you girls. Then after you've been on your own and had time to find your own favorites, you'll make your own recipe book and they'll be handed down to your kids. Imagine how many recipes your kids will have when they're grown. They'll have my book, your book, and their aunts recipe books. 4 each. Wish I had had that available to me when I first started out. It would have been nice to give your father real food! LOL! I think he would have like that too! Ha Ha! : ) We'll see if I can get it all together. I'm pretty excited with the idea. Who knows - maybe it will end up being some sort of enterprise! That would be awesome.
