OMG! What kind of parental torture has gone into the production of a happy, confident, outgoing teenage son like Kam!? 😂😂 I take note because teenagers that age can get quite snarly, sullen and withdrawn. It's a sign of a lot of good things going on, both in good parenting (nurture) and a good personality (nature). I'm singling you out Kam because I think you're the cool older brother that a lot of us wished we had. But we have to come back to overall good parenting and growing-up experiences. All your kids have marvelous outgoing personalities, are a joy to behold, and real "jewels in your crown". I understand you probably don't film the inevitable fights, but watching Kam be so tolerant of his younger brother's attempts to annoy were a marvelous smile-maker. Thanks for what you share, for sharing so willingly, and for being who you are in front of an audience with the comments turned on! Boys, remember to be grateful for the amazing experiences and upbringing your parents have orchestrated for you. A lot of us wish we could have had such an upbringing.
I love that you noticed this! Kamden is our soft, calm and collected kid. He thinks before he speaks and takes his time to decide to react or not. He is the BEST big brother for sure. Each of our kids fit in so perfectly and have a place in our family. I think all of our kids recognize each others strengths and….some really like to antagonize others weaknesses haha😂 I just read Kamden your comment and it made him smile. Thanks for being so kind♥️🤟🏼
Wow, this video was super fun and entertaining to watch! Your videos have such a cozy and relaxed vibe, and it really feels like I'm living that lifestyle myself!
It's great times sauntering about the Caribbean! Doing it with friends, a big plus. What fun for the kids to rule the roost with the parents off on Teek, and again with their overnighter at Île Tintamarre. Indeed, not much sleep but a whole lotta fun! Maho Beach a thrill ride. ✈ Oops- on St. Martin you gotta know your French holidays! Getting the groceries always an adventure. Impressive pull-ups, Kami! Malia still working on taking over the helm. In real time, enjoy your final week of 2024. 🎊
As someone who grew up with tons of ear infections from swimming all summer and going to scout camp with a lot of lake swimming, I learned that I could avoid the infections by cleaning my ears out with an ear cleaning syringe to force water under pressure into the ear. My problem was that my ears produce a lot of ear wax and the water gets trapped behind the ear wax and eventually it gets infected. By cleaning out my ears on a regular basis I never again had the problems.
Trying to keep Easton out of the water looks as hard as keeping a fish out of the ocean.😂. I would have a lot of trouble walking by that French bakery. Take care and stay safe my friends. Waiting for the live and the update on the plan for the future and what the kids are up to now, not to mention how big they have grown. 😃😍😃
I'm amazed you can find room for all the food in your boat. The beach sleep over looked like a lot of fun. I slept on the beach once and froze all night long. LOL
From someone who has lived in the mountains most my life, this is so fun to watch another way of life. I've cruised around the Mediterranean on big ship, but only stop for a day at a time to enjoy the islands. Would love to go on your adventures. Your children are so lucky and you are great parents. I noticed that you meet people that you know. What a fun community.
@@nadimnadim1965 Very cool, I have skied Vail a few time and loved the terrain. I mostly ski Palisades Tahoe. Lived there for 25 years. I'd go at least 5 days a week. skiing before or after work. Fun to watch videos though of beaches and sunshine after a snowy winter.
@Tahoeskier1 never went to Tahoe, but would love to get out of this eastern humidity. Probably would go to Arizona or New Mexico for warmth in my old age. Lol.
@sailingbananapancakes I hope you all had a great Christmas and I am sorry to hear about Easton having an ear infection and I will be praying that it gets better really soon
Over the last few episodes i was tracing your course through the Caribbean. I somehow knew that your crew would end up at Maho Beach with arriving and departing flights. FWIW the Zatara crew avoided St. Martin when passing through. Can't wait for your visit to St. Bart's, including a glimpse of huge yachts racing
He technically doesn’t keep getting them, he’s just never fully healing the one he has haha. He keeps getting in the water and it’s usually 3 weeks out of the water😅
Ugh well we’ve found a boat….but Steve still hasn’t finished remodeling the houses he’s working on. So….we had to push back our boat purchase sadly. We look every day

I enjoyed the all-sorts video. From French pastries, to sharing time for the young on the beach and the parents on Banana Pancakes.
❤🎉
Thanks so much! I think that’s my favorite kind of video too!
Es ist sehr schön das ihr so viel Spaß habt und alle immer gut drauf seid ❤❤
Trotz Verlust eines Zahn

I love hearing that! Thanks for watching and Happy New Years!🥳
I enjoyed the all-sorts (like licorice) video. It had sweet moments (French pastries) and friendly sharing moments, like the overnight on yThe beach
The kids loved the overnighter. Core memory for sure
OOPS! I thought that this comment was lost. I re-did it!

You really nailed the recap! I even forgot what was in the episode haha. Thanks for watching!

It was impossible keeping that kid out of the water and he had an ear infection the entire time😭

Lots of storage on our boat. We could have even fit more! The problem is just getting to it😅
Thanks for another great family video with my Saturday morning coffee. You guys all have a Happy New Year!

The mountains are incredible too! Most of my family prefers the snow. Thank you for your kind words.♥️
I lived in Colorado for 6 years and I have the best memories of the mountains above Vail in Leadville.

It's fun to have followers who pay such close attention! That's how we all end up in the same places in life! St Barts is next weeks episode!

Has anyone ever suggested putting tubes in Easton's ears to prevent ear infections? He seems to get them quite often.
He technically doesn’t keep getting them, he’s just never fully healing the one he has haha. He keeps getting in the water and it’s usually 3 weeks out of the water😅
🎉
Wooohooo
Please tell the kids I said hi ❤
Will do! And hello to you Christian!

I couldn't help but think why do we get new teeth at age six when we could really use a new set at age 60...
I say get new teeth at six and 60 haha
So, uhm, hey..... December is almost over.... you crazy whackos find a new boat yet?????
Ugh well we’ve found a boat….but Steve still hasn’t finished remodeling the houses he’s working on. So….we had to push back our boat purchase sadly. We look every day
