The Ultimate Blog Party #UBP13
This is my first time participating in this blog party so I am kind of nervous... You know the walk into a room and not knowing any one kind.
I am originally from England and have lived in the States for the last 14 years. My husband is also from England and so although out children were all born here.
They still have some strange British quirks, eat British food, and pronounce things in different ways - yes my boys are cowboy boot wearing Americans through and through. The hats normally only come out for Halloween though.
We starting homeschooling about two years ago when Jam was starting 5th grade and Boo 3rd. We love it. At the time we had chickens and bunnies - however we recently gave them to a friend who has a farm since we are trying to relocate closer to my husbands work. (He commutes an hour each way.) So my blog name makes me chuckle it should now be Homeschool but NO chickens and bunnies.
I am excited to meet new friends. Leave me a comment to say Hi.
To learn more about me check out my Random 5 Friday post.

ReplyDeleteSounds like it's time for a new blog name - the evolution of this one made me giggle though!
ReplyDeleteVisited today from UPB13 :o)
I know I can not for the life of me think of a new one...maybe next year :)
DeleteThank you for stopping by my blog! My hubby also makes an hour long commute to work twice a day. Love the cowboy hats! Following along with your site :-)
ReplyDeleteMy boys love the hats and boots! Definitely All American :)
DeleteYou have beautiful children!

Thanks - I am quite partial to my kids too!!
DeleteStopping by from the UBP2013 train! Love how life evolves but its hard to leave the past behind sometimes.
ReplyDeleteStopping by from teh AO forums, where apparently I haven't read my own threads for a while ;)
ReplyDeleteI've been over here 14 years too, LOL. I guess we came over at a similar time!
Although my husband is American through and through (he does claim Scottish ancestry), my kids say things differently too. Just last night, I was in a shop, where my kids were out of sight. I thought I heard an English voice, only when I turned around, it was my kids talking to each other ;)
How funny! I had someone ask me the other day if the American accent sounds funny...I said no, but the English one does when I hear it. lol They then said - but you sound English - Which is funny because I just don't hear it.
DeleteLOL
DeleteThe English does sound funny- because you become so attuned to American living here :) The kids sound weird because they have an almost Tudor accent- just about halfway between American and English. Although their local friend's parent thinks they sound weird... like English. I'm quoting, by the way ;)

Hi, I found you through UBP13. I'm kind of a newb to blogging, but I'm loving it so far. I'm an educator, former foster parent (for kids with emotional, physical, and mental disabilities) and adoptive dad of two kiddos with special needs. It's been great reaching out, talking to, and hopefully helping other families! My whole blog is all about learning to learn and helping families succeed using brain-based practices. Come check it out. I think you will like it! www.wiselearners.com
ReplyDeleteI’m stopping by from the UBP13. We hope you stop by our party for a slice of warm banana bread and cold milk.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
