Love the car dancing...and I love seeing how happy and relaxed D and R are...they were sweet little kids... but the Sunny Bay move and all that went with it have helped them grow into confident, sparkly young adults. Well done Mama!
Where is D going to uni?
look at *kate* in the back seat!

funny, we were picking up the lads (J12 and S10) from their rafting race this arvo (forgot the camera) and R14 and i were sitting on the grass after snarffing (yup, it has two Fs) a BBQ sausie, and one of the pre-teen lads (who was kinda flirting with R14) said, "Gosh you and your mum look exactly the same!"
at which we simultaneously looked at each other with a raised-eyebrows "DUH!" look lol X
Lol, I gotcha Kate :)
Cool pics. We do car dancing too and very loud car singing. It can be quite dangerous!!
*love* this pic. your kids seem so comfortable around you, it's inspiring (american teenagers are brainwashed to hate their adults), or maybe it's just a testimony to your fabulous parenting. anyways, they will love having these pics when they're grown.
Mamabird, it's a testimony to here fabulous parenting - Kiwikids can be just as ornery! :)
Hi Kate,
Tell D that he looks so like the guy from "Flight of the Conchords"!!! Cool glasses! What a thrill for him to get the scholarship also- read it in the latest newsletter! Well done and congrats to him. Love E
What sweet kids you've got there, Kate :) Enjoy his visit :)
What a perfect moment ... laughter and fun seems to follow you endlessly!
Your children are CRAZY... did you do this to them?

Bulldog sometimes asks them to be a little less “Michael Jackson” cos the car gets its own momentum, rather freaky at 100km/h X
