Something About Me
- Jenn in Holland
- The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this: A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
I welcome you warmly.

ReplyDeleteOh, I love this photo! He's so adorable. Terrific entry!
ReplyDeleteWow! clogs on steroids... great pic!
ReplyDeleteOh that's so fun.
ReplyDeleteIt also gave me a kind of deja vu, I wonder if I saw similar when I was in Holland as a child ... Hmmm
I bet those are hard to keep quiet when walking around!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha!!! Too funny! I love it! Have a great weekend, and thanks for the smile .. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest photo. Such big and colorful shoes. Happy Photo Hunt!!!

My Dad brought a couple pairs of wooden shoes home with him when he was stationed in Holland for awhile and I can remember trying to wear them around the house sometimes and they were huge!
ReplyDeleteThis brings back so many great memories - thank you!
Fabulous photo. The original place for clogs.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, too cute! Reminds me, my mom had a pair of wooden shoes around the house. Too small for any of us to wear.
ReplyDeleteI love that!
ReplyDeleteDear Jenn,
ReplyDeleteI really hate to break it to you like this but, um, those shoes don't fit...
Very VERY cute, by the way!!!!
He's about to disappear in those things :)
ReplyDeleteit really fits heheh...
ReplyDeletei saw a big one just like a boat when we had our last trip there.
Oh wow!!! What large shoes he had on! hahaha.....
ReplyDeleteFun!
Lol, great shot!
ReplyDeleteHow cute!!!! just perfect for the theme. I refrained from posting my pic this week as I have little time to visit, but loved dropping by to see your shoes!
ReplyDeletehappy weekend :)
Awesome! I wish I had seen some giant clogs like that the last time I was in The Netherlands :)
ReplyDeleteOk, for a long time I didn't believe that Crocs were comfortable (see my post from today) but they are. But really, are wooden shoes comfortable?
ReplyDeleteHe looks ready for some water-skiing! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool shot. Best I have seen so far.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
No! No, they don't fit!
ReplyDeleteBut this is cuteee! :)
Oh how cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks for pointing out the error in my url, Jenn. :-)
ReplyDeleteThose are really huge shoes! I was going to put a photo of my son in dutch shoes when he went to europe too.. but I didn't have a clear shot. He loved the shoes.
Oh my how cute!!!
ReplyDeleteAwww...that's adorable! :)
ReplyDeleteI love it.
Thanks for dropping by mine.
Great shot! I love it! Thanks for visiting my meme blog :)
ReplyDeleteNice picture, but I MUST protest about the image that foreigners have of the Netherlands :-) Just one or two very old farmers wear wooden shoes and the rest of us wear normal shoes or for doing dirty work: wellingtons. And then the tulips....;-)
ReplyDeleteLol... excellent shot! Love his expression, also.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA!!! Are those shoes really H.U.G.E. :D
ReplyDeleteThis has to be the most precious photo yet!
ReplyDeleteWhy of course- you're in Holland. Now I get it!!
