A quiz....

To test the gossip powers of the international grapevine, we have a quiz for you:

Have Kate and Joe...
a) Recently got back from a big European trip?
b) Moved to the middle-of-nowhere in New Zealand?
c) Both got Masters degrees to finish before the end of the year?
d) Recently found out they are pregnant?
e) All of the above.

If you answered e) then you are, in fact, correct!
Yep - we are expecting a little one, due next April. Everything is going fine so far - we are pretty excited and are looking at moving back to Western Australia at the end of the year so we will be a bit a closer to family, friends, decent weather etc.

Since Joe's last name is Powers, favourites so far include "Magic", "Super", and "Judicial".

Hope to show off a miniature version of us next time we see you!
Kate and Joe

Congratulations Kate and Joe! Very cool news.

If i ever have a baby i'm going to call it 'the internet' or 'soda' but feel free to take one of those if you'd like.

CONGRATULATIONS KATE & JOE! Fantastic news. Thinking names how about "Austin" or "Kenny"....? We're stoked for you guys. Lotsa love Kel, Jake, Lach and Maisie xxxx

OK, that last comment was from Kelly. This is Jake speaking: it's about time you cousins stood up and were counted. Well done Kate.

Congrats Kate and Joe! What wonderful news! I hope there'll be a Melbourne stopover on your way back to WA so we can celebrate in person.

Well, Ashley, there goes your theory that Joe didn't look like he had any
"lead in his pencil". (Actually, it mightn't have been you who said it - it's always so noisy in Neil's Bar). Whatever, I always had complete confidence. Great news, Joe and Kate, and terrific you're coming back to Australia as well. I'm already a proud great-uncle.

Congratulations Kate and Joe!!

If the baby is born in New Zealand, will it grow up to have a New Zealand accent? That'd sck.

WA ROFF's said...

Thanks all, and yes Andrew it's necessary to give birth in Australia on the off chance the little one ever becomes famous (we don't want the Kiwis to claim it!).

I did hear it on the grapevine Kate and Joe! Now that it's out there congratulations to you both. Thanks for looking after Jon and Damian in NZ, I presume they behaved themselves??? I think by that stage in their trip even they'd had enough to drink.
Love Jenny xxx

Yep Jenny, they were, as the Kiwi's say (way too much) "good as Gold". Was great getting to catch up,

Congratulations cousins!! Wonderful news but you are making some of us look bad. x

That's funny - I think Zac and Liz's comments were along the lines of "Thank God we are off the hook", in actual fact Zac was heard muttering "Better you than me"...
