Kate Hudson has already taken her new boyfriend home to meet the parents. Nighttime barbecues! Jet-skiing! Lakeside PDA! It was all part of the fun during Hudson’s weeklong vacation with Dax Shepard.

On July 30, the two lovebirds – who were first photographed together July 13 – flew on a private jet to Muskoka, Canada, where Kurt Russell and mom Goldie Hawn own a home.

Most of the Hudson/Hawn/Russell clan was there (only her brother Oliver and his wife, Erinn, were absent), but Shepard wasn’t shy about socializing.

“Dax fit right in,” says a source, adding that the Employee of the Month actor, 32, played tennis with Hudson’s younger brothers Wyatt and Boston, and helped teach her 3-year-old son, Ryder, how to fish.

“One day, all the guys took a boat to an outdoor market and ate hot dogs. Dax and Kurt were laughing like they had known each other for years,” says the source.

Indeed, both actors appear in the short film Hudson recently directed for Glamour magazine.

Despite the ease with which Shepard got along with his new flame’s family, pals of Hudson, 28 (who split from actor Owen Wilson, 38, in May), wonder what she sees in him.

“Everyone thinks it’s a strange choice for her. Dax is wild and weird,” says one source close to the star.

One reason for her appeal? Admits the pal: “He makes her laugh.”
