Today is our 1 year anniversary of adopting Cookie. I remember it well, because the night before we went to pick her up, Tim and I had a “date” at the new Yoshi’s Jazz club in San Francisco. I enjoyed the show, but I just kept thinking that I wanted the night to be over because I knew we were meeting her in Sacramento the next morning and I was too excited. I don’t think I slept at all that night. Visions of sugar bunz danced in my head. We immediately sent out “adoption announcements” (pictured above) to all of our friends and family and we haven’t stopped talking about her since! Below is one from a series of shots that Tim snapped while in the offices of Blue Ravine Animal Hospital where we first met Cookie.
We were allowed to give her a bath right away. I remember that Cooks was not too jazzed about bathing that morning, which is weird, because she just loves her bi-monthly spa treatments now. Maybe she was feeling shy. She was a bit nervous to be meeting new people, as I recall. But, we had brought pieces of apple for her to snack on and that changed everything. We love Cookie more than anything in the world. Thank you, Universe, for bringing us together! Time flies when you’re having fun.
