Don't it just make you feel warm all over when your kids share the same interests.

The four year old down stairs surfing the net (almost) and the three year olds upstairs playing quietly for the last two hours.

Horsepower, style and reborn - you decide which!

That's Jaxon-jai above and this is Chandler hard at work below. He types is DrSeuss books into the computer and then gets it to read the story back to him through our reader.

For fun he likes to spell names forwards and then repeat them backwards just for fun!

We all play a game like punchbug but it's less violent. It's called Spotto where each VW - any type counts as a spotto. The tally is renewed daily. They are almost psychic when it come to any type one, Kombis from 300 meters, NB and T3 they slow up a bit, type 3's their just starting to get, and catch the odd Golf, Bora, Passat and Ghia now and then.

Nothing like being a proud Dad!

So needless to say our boys are our life, and now we have the Dog-O-War to make weekend that little more exciting, family outings are definately on the agenda this Christmas.

If you have some interesting family / VW pics you'd like to share then post on brothers and sisters. Thats how we keep the forum alive.

Sweet!!:)

Beautiful family and excellent camp set up:thumb

Camping is just the best fun, you appreciate the little things just that little bit more and its even better when you have some one you love to share it with.

Kids are just the best. There are time when I can understand why couple prefer to stay DINK (Double income no kids) but then again you miss out on so much value added fun and laughter. I was reading to my boys tonight, it's such a buzz seeing them pick out words and help each other.

You have a beautiful family mate. Thanks for following along. Usually when you have kids your life changes. I lost the motorbikes :( and moved into VW's :). It was a natural progression because I need somthing I could still tinker ;) on that had another two seats and still turned heads!:o

How much those 4X4 drivers wish they could top out the dune like the buggies and Bajas :x. Too accustomed to armrests, aircon and electric windows.

Amy loves it in the Kombi because it has heaps of room to move around when we're camped. At the moment the setup is Di (my wife) and Jemma in the tent and me (because I'm told I snore loudly but that's never bothered me?) and Amy (because she fidgets) sleep in the Kombi :) Both kids seems to travel well in the Kombi on long trips and I am sure it's because they are not closed into a confined space and they're both sitting up high and can see everything as we go along.
