Well, that a problem we spanish Speakers have with English too but the other way around. Let me explain.
We don't use the ver "estar" or "ser" when we are talking about age. We use "tener". In English, we use "are" as your example. So, a Spanish speaker would use "have" in English (wrong) and an english speaker would use "estar" o "ser" (wrong too).
All in all, the translation is
Tenemos la misma edad.
Remember that edad is femenine!
I don't know if my explanation was crystal clear, sorry!

Hokuten thanks, I let that one slip! Off course tener is used for age! Thank you - Polyglot1day, Oct 25, 2012
