On the Shack thread we were talking about my grandparents coming from the Netherlands and you asked where they were from. Well, Grandma (Houbolt)came from Zetten and Grandpa from Oldebroek (Doorneweerd).

BTW, I love your pink blog.

Judy I know both places. I have been to a small village not too far from Zetten right after my mom passed away. LOVELY rural area, lot's of heather fields. Very pretty. Oldebroek is in the same province :)

No I don't sorry. But that would be the same if I asked you if you knew anyone with my last name in the USA lol. It might be a "small" country but still big enough :)
