I am a total mix and DH is 100% polish, but 3rd generation American. We live in Massachusetts.

Edit: sorry jan, I didn't even know this was offensive. Thank you for binging it to my attention.

JANCANDANCE · February 2014

I take huge offense to the word mutt. Meh...

numbersgirl08 · February 2014

I'm 25% Norwegian and hubby is 25% Czech. Neither of us have any idea about the other 75%, but given that we're both super pale and blonde, I think there's a lot of Northern European in us.

peachnectarine · February 2014

I'm 50% Italian, 25% Scottish, and the other 25% is English, Welsh, and German. My husband a lot of different things.

riansmommie · February 2014

I'm a good mix of things, but mostly German, French-Canadian, and Norwegian. My hubby is also a good mix of things but mostly Scotch-Irish and Native American.

sparklemotion86 · February 2014

I'm 1/4 French, 1/4 Belgian, (from my dad's side) 1/4 Ukrainian and 1/4 Finnish (from my mom's side). DH is Native American and Welsh on his mom's side and he has no idea from his dad's side. His dad doesn't know.

I'm really sorry, Jan. I admit I didn't even think about the term when I was typing.

Ditto. I forgot some people find that offensive, but I'm talking about myself so I didn't think it was a biggie. Fixed to say mix.

Western Diva · February 2014

I'm a mix of british, scot, irish and native american, DH is british and dutch.

DaisyDuck40 · February 2014

I am a huge mix of things....but I'm mostly French, English, German, Scottish, Irish, Swedish and Finnish (there's a bunch of other stuff). My fiance is mainly German, English and Cherokee I think....

Nix55 · February 2014

JANCANDANCE · February 2014

bel194 · February 2014

I'm a lot of stuff: German, Norwegian, French, slavanian, polish, I'm probably forgetting something. SO is half Mexican and half American Indian.

FunkyPhoenix · February 2014

Native American, Polish, German and Dutch over here. Should be receiving my Cherokee card some time in the near future... Then the laws of your country will not apply to me! Not really, well sort of yes

DH is English and Irish.

We live in the greater Houston area.

Dencasa · February 2014

I feel so plain jane lol. I was the first in 10+ generations not to marry a Greek it was very shocking to my family. I'm a rebel what can I say ;-)

RedLipstick69 · February 2014

I'm half Jamaican born in Jamaica, LO's dad is 100% Jamaican so she's 75% Jamaican born in US

Eta: forgot a word

FunkyPhoenix · February 2014

@34blondie Awe, that stinks! Apparently the Cherokee Nation recognizes much lower percentage as long as you can track your lineage and everyone before you is registered. My grandmother and mom are so hoping there's not a problem getting mine. Only thing is that the wait is FOR-EV-VERRRR. It can take up to 2 years I think.

RissNRuss · February 2014

We're a mutt family: I'm 1/4 Puerto Rican, 1/4 Italian, 1/2 unknown (assumed Russian/Polish). Hubs is 1/2 Polish, 1/2 a mix of Dutch, Syrian and English.

I'm originally a CT girl, he is originally NY, but his dad got transferred around a bit when he was a kid, so he's lived in a few places. We're now borderline CT/NY (seriously, two blocks to the state border).

BunnyLove416 · February 2014

I'm 100% Portuguese raised in NJ, he's a mix of Irish and Scottish raised in UT.

nikel13 · February 2014

I'm Irish, Scottish (maiden name is McDaniel), Welsh, 4th generation Austrian German, and Native American. Were not sure what tribe. I still have relatives in Austria. H is Irish, German, Native American. I believe they said that his biological paternal great grandfather was Osage. We are both pretty pale like the Irish, but I can hold a tan like nobody's business.

lioness13 · February 2014

I'm just a plain old black American descendent of slaves. Maybe one day I'll try to dig further into my genealogy. I was raised in New York and live in Atlanta now with my DH is is 50% Trinidadian/ 50% Guyanese. He is first generation American raised in NY as well.

LBeez13 · February 2014

I am split into 3 parts: Mexican, Puerto Rican and French. My husband is African American. We are both from WA state but now live in TX.

Monkeybutt80 · February 2014

I am 100% Korean, my husband is 50% Irish and 50% mix of French Canadian, and some Western European. People say Colton is a "good mix" of us, but I just think that he looks like his mama and all Asian. Thoughts?

I think he is a good mix and I freaking love his hair in this pic!!

ohheyholly · February 2014

I'm mostly Irish (lots of red hair and fair skin in my family!) and DH is mostly German. We were both born and raised in Ohio

needanustart · February 2014

Me: American, raised in New York, mix of Italian (but more likely middle eastern based on name and some research into where my Grandparents could have really been from), Irish, Alsatian, Scottish, German and English.
DH: American, raised in Mass., mix of Irish, French Canadian and Russian Jewish. He looks like a whitey Mcwhite boy like his mom. Funny story, growing up he actually thought his dad was black because he was so tan and dark skinned compared to his mom and the rest of the North Shore. He saw a mixed race couple on TV and told his mom, "look, it's like our family!" and she had to have a talk with him about daddy not being black. Not that that would have been a problem or something, just, he was Jewish!

LiLi23 · February 2014

My father's parents were Czech, my mother's side is a whole bunch of things, all of which I'm not too sure about. My husband is 50% Irish and he thought 50% Italian. Turns out his aunt and mother were adopted as babies and not from the same family (which they didn't find out until they were 45ish and 50 years old respectively and their mother had already passed...seriously). His mother was born in Canada, but she doesn't know her background at all. Funny thing is I never thought his aunt looked like the family at all, but his mother does.

Maelara · February 2014

I'm 75% English and 25% unknown. DH is 50% Dutch and 50% unknown. His moms family has been in Canada for hundreds of years and can't remember what they are.

Lizzybizzy80 · February 2014

My mom is half Swedish and half Danish. Her mom's family farmed in Iowa and I have some keepsakes in Swedish. My dad has a bit of German Scottish and Irish (plus more).

flerlgirl · February 2014

I am redneck, of the TN rednecks. Now I hail from Atlanta, GA, and married myself a northerner from MI.

Butseriously, French and German on my side but my family has been stateside since before that Declaration thing was signed. #Murica.

DH is German and Dutch; his grandparents came over from Germany as adults.

We are both 100% awesome.

@workinit - he is from right outside Kalamazoo! Most of his family is either near Kazoo or Grand Rapids. I have never been! But supposedly we're going up for Christmas this year!

ilovemarfa · February 2014

Both my husband and I were born and raised in buffalo, ny. I'm 50/50 Mexican/Irish. My husband is 50/50 Irish/polish.

Monkeybutt80 · February 2014

@riansmommie thanks:) it was right after his bath and I spiked his wet hair for fun and the woke up the next morning and half of it was still spiked up. Daycare teachers thought it was funny!

KellenHi21 · February 2014

I am mostly Hungarian and Irish, with some English and German sprinkled in there.

DH is Mexican.

Lo is 50% a-bunch-of-white and 50% Mexican.

I grew up in Hawaii, DH grew up in LA, we met in LA and currently live in Hawaii.

needanustart · February 2014

So confession, jokingly and in private we can Lo our little Aryan baby too. But with us it's an ironic joke because, well, he's more Jewish than German and his last name is straight up Jewish. He is just so blue eyed and fair that it's hard to believe he has a very dark mom and a grandpa who was presumed to be black.
I would never ever call him that outside of our house or without laughing afterwards!
