They Hail from Ireland

Danny’s family reunion was last weekend. It was the Deasy Family Reunion. There were a lot of really interesting people and a lot of fun stories. I went to my first catholic mass that was held by Danny’s uncle Brian who was recently ordained as a deacon. It also turns out that one of his ancestors was part of a plot to take over Canada and sell it to England in exchange for Ireland. The U.S. sent over Ulysses S. Grant to put a stop to it. There were also great stories about Danny’s dad’s childhood in Ireland with his brothers. Overall it was a nice weekend and we even got to go swimming in the pool at the Marriot which might have been one of my highlights.
