I bet you thought I was going to be home catching up on my sneep aftew my adventoowes in Afwika
WONG!
WONG!
It's my dawling fwiend Opus' Biwfday and his sissie Olive came to pick me up in theiw magic flying bus (while he was asneep) to attend his suwpwise pawty in Wome along wif the gang
Some of you may wecall that I was lucky enuff to go to Wome wif my pawents two yeaws ago whewe I met Opus and his bwuvvew Woscoe and theiw pawents.
Sadly last yeaw deaw Woscoe cwossed ovew the wainbow bwidge , and Opus has been vewy sad evew since.
The awwival of his bootiful sissie Olive has helped, but we, his bestest fwiends decided he needed a special twiboote to cheew him up.
His sissie Olive has owganised a suwpwise pawty fow him fow his combined biwfday and Blogovewsawy
He is a well known histowy buff, and, well ,he lives in Italy, so what bettew place to celebwate his Biwfday than the coloseum in Wome.

Asta! I didn't realize you knew so many cats. Good thing you left the beast at home for this trip.
I think that Rome looks lovely. And I love the outfits they wear there. Nice, flattering drapes of fabric.

Ciao bella Asta! Cara mia! Oh thank you so much for the wonderful photos you made for my birthday. My mom likes the one of Roscoe the best!It was so sweet of you think of Roscoe, as this is his birthday too. Today is bitter sweet, but with friends like you, how can we be sad?
And back together in Rome again! What a wonderful day! time to eat and then a cat nap! Will you dance with me later?

Gee. I'm so behind. Your playing at the run looked fun. Apart from Piper - grrr those black doggies ..not my favourites but don't tell him wil you.
Then gotta bark. Your balance beam walking. Most stylish. I think that's a competition in the 2012 Olympics. Do you find good stuff on the road? I often try that snack and go on a Sunday.Mmmm scored a choccy bar last Sunday yesterday. Removed from my nashers. AGAIN. But I was wagging to see a couple of terrier stubborn moments on your walkie too!! Haaaaaaa.
Wishing Opus a purrrrfect day! What a wonderful day. Hope there was no throwing of leggeds to the lions?
Wiry loves and special barkday week kisses Asta !! Eric xxxx
Asta, you are just a jet-setter. We can hardly keep up with you. We're off to wish Opus a Happy Birthday.
Love the picture of you and Mommi in your banner.

Wow, now THAT'S a party!
Hi, Asta...
Just wanted to stop by & say Hi...
I'm back to Blogging...I gave my Mom a real Talk-N-To...
Hey: Stop by my Blog...I got some pictures from your Neck of the Woods...
Abby xxxooo
What great fun we are having! It has been far too long since we have been together. I sure have missed all. Thought this summer all have been busy you all were near to me in my heart. All for one and one for all.
Now back to the party!!
The receipe is yours. I did a little bit of this and a little bit of that, then mixed it up all together. The hardeds part was getting it through customes when I entered Italy.
By the way, someone else has a birthday coming up. Do you have any plans that I should know about? Do you have a special gift that I could get for you?
Oh Asta, it is so great to be at another party with you. We are having the best time. ~S,S,C & F
I wanted to stop by and say how nice it was meeting you at Opus's party! That sure was a fun time.
Happy Birthday Opus!
Love the new header!
take care
Clive
Oh Asta,
The birthday party looks like so much fun. Could you ask your Mommy or Daddy to e-mail my Mommy? She wants to take Sally Ann and some friends to Paris for her birthday in November. She needs help with the pictures.

Asta! How cool is it that you returned to Rome, this time in a Magic Schoolbus (well, that's how we decided to think of it... that was one of NinaGirl's favorite TV series when she was a little girl) and to visit your friend Opus and his family and friends!!! You all look so elegant in the classic Roman march, in the Colosseum. (We're betting there is some good hunting ground in there! Were the kitties distracted?) We're sure you all had a purrfect time, and that Roscoe looked down on you from the Rainbow Bridge with a smile and a whisper of delight, sent on a breath of wind. We're going to head over right now, introduce ourselves and see if we can join in the celebration.
Thank you for telling us all about it!
Love,
Bruvver Jake and SissieFergi xxoo
Pee S. We love the picture of you with MommiAmi in Rome. Taking a dainty taste of gelato. Yummm! You both look so pretty.

Oh my, Asta...I'm stuffed...that carob fountain...sheeshch...I loved the dead rhodents they had to dip in it!!!! Those cats know how to PAWTY!!!!!!
