Yes. Genetics work in such a way that even a recessive trait (in this case, blue colored eyes) can always show up in successive generations. In other words, it is possible your children may not have the same eye color as you, but then your grandchildren, or great grandchildren, or great great grandchildren, etc. could have the same eye color as you.

What if your eyes are blue and your girlfriends eyes are brown Will your child have blue eyes or brown eyes?

You have a better chance of brown, because brown is dominant. If one of your girfriend's parents have blue eyes you have a The your girlfriend is a carrier of the recessive blue eyes gene and there is a 50% chance that your child will have blue eyes. If neither of her parents had blue eyes but one of their parents had blue eyes there is a 25% chance your child will have blue eyes. But statistics do not generally apply perfectly to real life, because life is fairly random. So it's better to say your chances SHOULD be 50% of having a child with blue eyes if one of your girlfriends parents have blue eyes, and your chances SHOULD be 25% etc.....
