Hewo Evewyone!!!! Happy Memowial Day weekend
We'we supposed to talk about ouw Peeps, so hewe goes,
pleez fowgive me if you've heawd this a thousand times befowe
My peeps awe fwom way back in the stone age, so thewe is lots to covew, hehehe
as most of you have heawd, Daddi was in the vewy Fiwstest Peace Cowps gwoop and helping othews and being loving and genewoos has aways been pawt of his natoowe
He was bowned in Pawsylvania, but didn't stay thewe aftew high School.
Daddi could be comfowtabull anywhewe, in the city, ow countwy, in any pawt of the wowld cause he's coowious and fwiendly and loves to leawn new stuffs
He gots a Piled high and Deep degwee in Echo Nomics and became a pwofessow
He is a faboolous teachew and a vewy calm and laid back sowt of guy
He was mawwied befowe Mommi and has a bootiful Hooman dogtew who is my Pink sissie
but then, aftew being alone fow many yeaws, he met Mommi and she captoowed him despite his nevew wanting to get mawwied again
Mommi is the awpawsite chawactew fwom Daddi.
She is volatile and gets happy and sad weally quickly and can't live anywhewe except a city full of peeps awound hew
.(She's scawed of the countwyside and dawk lonely places..I pawsonally think wunning away all night fwom Hungawy to Austwia , walking all night long ovew fwozen cown fields and getting shot at occasionally didn't help )
She was bowned in Budapest, Hungawy and had to escape wif hew pawents when she was eight yeaws old and thewe was a wevolution. She lived in Bewn Switzewland fow thwee yeaws befowe coming to the United States.
Eventooally she wound up in Califownia fow High School and Univewsity. Being an obedient sowt of giwl , she went along wif hew pawents plans to go to Pwe med at UCLA, but hew heawt wasn't in it. All she wanted to do was dwaw and paint and wead books and play the piano
Aftew she mawwied Daddi, she wowked all day and went to painting school all night and finally in 1980
she gots hew first exhibit in Austwia
She looks pwetty smug huh?????
Fow suwe she was convinced she would be a famoos paintew HAH!
The best laid plans of mice etc.....
Bof Mommi and Daddi loved to twavel and because my Gwammpapa moved back to Hungawy aftew Gwmmommi died, they went to visit evewy yeaw and stopped in many places along the way
They wewe a giggly paiw always
the mowe they twaveled, the less they like living in LA whewe all theiw time was spent dwiving somewhewe..wowk, buying food, looong way to see fwiends . They thought "why can't we live somewhewe whewe thewe awe places to walk and many kinds of peeps?"
so , they moved to NewYawk City and found theiw pawfect place by the Hudson Wivew
(at the time Daddi wowked fow a bank besides his teaching and they wewe luckily willing to pay fow the move)
as the bestest bonus, they wewe finally able to get theiw dweam woofie Nikki
(all the places they lived in LA nevew allowed doggies)
Aftew Nikki, they couldn't live wifout a doggie evew again and soon thewe wewe thwee wiwy kids in the apawtment..evewyone thought they wewe nuts, but they wewe in heaven
The yeaws passed and Nowa and Chawlie wewe the onliest ones left,
Mommi aways had sevewal pawt time jobs and continood painting and having exhibits but she cewtainly nevew gots wich ow famoos
Daddi got attacked by the howwibull big C, and Mommi had to have a stent put in hew awtewy
Little Nowa got sick and left them faw too eawly and they swowe, they would nevew get anothew doggie cause the pain of losing hew was just too much.
Fow the fiwst time in many yeaws, the house was silent and they hated it
Sooooo, I came along and completed the family again
I twaveled wif them to Wome and discovewed the delights of Gelato.
Then life got hawdew and hawdew cause Daddi lost his big job and only had teaching and that didn't even pay the went
some angels thought they should still have a chance to twavel and sent them to Pawis and London fow theiw 35th aminevewsawawy
Daddi has been Cancew Fwee fow five yeaws and still is the best kissew and the sweetest, bestest Daddi I know
Mommi is still painting and not being successful ow famoos
I don't know what the footoowe will bwing, but as long as we'we togethew it's all good
I hope all of you have a most wondewful Memowial Day weekend and I would like to honow and give thanks to all those soldiews who have pwotected us all this time.

Miss Asta,
I never get tired of that story. Your humans are amazing people and just about the two kindest people I have ever met. I hope that mommi gets famous painting soon so that daddi can use that economics degree to manage your wealth and maybe you can get a little brother.
Slobbers,

We think your peeps were absolutely made for each other and we never get tired of hearing their special story, Asta! BTW, your mommi is very famous to us! We think her artwork is sensational!

I'm always impressed by how cool and interesting your humans are, Miss Asta! I knew some parts of the story, but not all of them and I thought it was a fun read!

Asta... It's ME (Frankie Furter) using Sarge's computer. I am soooo glad you are awake. I talked to your Dad the other day when you were sneepin. He was very much NICE to me and I like him a lot.
You are sooooo lucky to have such Bright and Loving peeps!
You did a brilliant job of telling about them.
I hope that you three have a wonderful Memorial Day!!!!!
I hope I didn't disturb your nap. I tried to be really quiet when I typed to Mr. George.
Dear Asta,
I didn't know any of these things - except I did know your mom was a most fabulous artist and in our eyes she is rich and famous!
I love all the pictures of your parents through the years. Of course, you know my mama loves the New Yorkie pictures the best. But I like the picture of your parents getting married, I am a romantic at heart!
I still can't believe you got to go to Rome. My parents went to Italy a few years back (I stayed home). They LOVED Rome - of course, my mom was following all the cats around! They also went to Lucca, the town where Papa's grandmother was born. Papa loved his grandmother more than just about anyone in the world so this was very special for him. When my sister is a little older, they plan to go back and see more!
Your pal, Pip
We never tire of hearing the story of your peeps, Asta. And somehow every time you tell it, it gets even better. We think your peeps are awesome and we hope life brings only good things their way.

What fabulous stories-we've only heard parts before, and we will never get tired of hearing them-promise!
We love all the photos but especially the one that appears to be at the alter. No doubt you three are made for each other!
And there is no doubt that your Mommi is a fabulous super-talented artist-we LOVE her work!
And you already know how thrilled we are to even think we know someone who served in that first round of the Peace Corps-we thank you, Asta's Dad, for your courageous work!
Thanks for sharing these stories and pictures!

HI ASTA!!! we understand....we've been trying to move the humomm to...they are a stubborn lot. we've had to rely on our dad for posts because..."grades are due"..and she needs to post them.. you know blah blah blah... well. she said "that's it the grades are gonna be posted tonight!" we think things will be happening at our blog (thankfully)..so much has happened that has been "put on the shelf" <---what the heck does that mean? i just don't get these humans..
ah well, i must ponder...but in the meantime, we have enjoyed hearing about your family's story. xing paws for you all. you will hear from us now that "school's out for the summer"... '

Oh Asta
Thank you so much for telling us all about your wonderful Mommi and Daddi. We had heard some of the stuff about Daddi before, but knew less about Mommi (who is certainly successful in producing beautiful pictures, and famous in our section of the blogosphere). Anyway it was ALL very interesting. And we so hope that you all figure out a plan to stay living where you want to be, but we know these things can be difficult and stressful.
Happy Memorial Day!
Bertie and Gail .
Miss Asta, thank you so much for sharing about your mommi and daddi. We loved seeing the pictures of your mommi in her beautifu hats - she's so glamorous! We see where you get your taste in fashion! Our paws are crossed that you can all stay where you are in Greenwich Villiage! Mom HAS to have you there so she can imagine visiting you someday and having hamburgers and martinis at a sidewalk cafe!

What a boootiful story! I read it twice :)
We loved reading about your peeps! Yippeee for your Daddy being free of the nasty "c' for 5 years!
The Florida Furkids and Angel Sniffie
Wow...we thought we knew all the story but we didn't. Your mom has the best profile ever...and she looks exactly the same now. How does she do that? Even I vary from month to month.
We adored this post...and seeing you mom's smile!! She's really volatile? Hmm...I had a blender like that once...it blew up.
Kisses,
Lacie Hotcakes
What a great story about your parents!!! It was vey nice to read about them :o)

Like our friends have already written here we can honestly say we love reading about you and your family Asta.
Molly, Taffy and Winnie.
Your Mommi is famous to me as she painted my pawtrait and we all love it so much.
Monty
Moma loved loved loved this post. Even if she was lazy rude and irresponsible and didn't write to tell you that. (Please forgive her ... she's a mess sometimes)
Know that sometimes words that are unspoken are the most important ones to hear. (That'll make Moma feel a bit better)
WE LOVE YOU ALL!
Jake and Fergi xx
Hi, Asta -
We love reading the story about your Mommi and Daddi and how they met.
We are sooooooooooo behind in blogging. We have had some bad thunderstorms the past couple of days and lost power for about twenty minutes.
We hope you and your family had a great Memorial Day!
Love -
Hershey and Kaci
