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.

Awwwww... wishing you a happy 4th of July, Jenn! I was allowed to celebrate the Independence Day several times with friends in the U.S. - although I´m not American I will never forget the celebration. I feel for you.

ohhh fireworks! Great picture -- Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteI'd echo Brillig's suggestion, except I remember once being told never to play with fireworks...
Aw, Jenn. I wish you could be here to share in our July 4th celebration. I'd surely miss it if I were away.
ReplyDeleteDuring my senior year of high school, we served as a host family to a foreign exchange student from Germany - Ilka, now one of my dearest friends. She arrived in August and had to depart just days before the 4th of July. Oh, how I wish she could have been here for that! Maybe one day.
Happy day of independence, Jenn.

ReplyDeleteLooks good - fireworks for fourth of july - very nice
ReplyDeleteDpn't be too home sick! happy WW and J4.

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are missing the fireworks, guess you'll have to find another way to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW and 4th!
Happy 4th of July, Jenn!
ReplyDeleteSome people this year are getting laser shows instead of fireworks. I'm all for preventing forest fires, but I'm not sure it's the same thing.
ReplyDeleteHave a Happy 4th of July.

ReplyDelete-- when in Oregon, on 4th of July, back in the 90'ies, we had to go to Vancouver to see the fireworks - proclaimed to be the biggest west of Missisippi.
Wow! You have some many comments! Great picture. Happy 4th to you.
