Ashton goes to Church


Today I went to church. I was a really good boy, my daddy said so since I slept through most of it. Mama and daddy got married at the church we went to, at St. Mark Catholic Church in Oro Valley.... I know Spanish, "Oro" means "gold" in American speak.. I got to meet the priests there, one his name is Father Gregory Okafor, he is originally from a place called Nigeria. It seems a long ways away. My daddy said that his priest in Kearny is also from Nigeria. The other priest, my favorite is Father Liam Leahy, he is originally from a place called Ireland. My daddy said that I have Irish blood in me, and it is green. I guess my great-great-great grandfather Patrick Gleeson came from Ireland in about 1863 for a better life in this country. He sailed into New York, and then went to a place called Austin, Nevada to become a teamster for a silver mine. Neat-o. I hope to go to Ireland one day.

Daddy wanted me to include one of their wedding pictures in this blog, so with a little bit of help, here is a picture that was taken a long time ago (Sept. 15, 2007).
Last night, I did pretty well. Daddy and I watched two Dragnet 1970 shows and a Mork and Mindy show. I really like Mork and Mindy. I believe the first words that I will say is "Nanu-Nanu".
Well, I better go now. Talk to you later.

Love,

Ashton
