Rough day

We made the girls try fishing today. Of course we didn't catch anything. We spent some time fishing, swimming, tubing and skiing. We also just drove around in the boat. It was a really tough day!
Erin's third time water skiing. She is starting to stand up a little straighter and actually got outside the wake. She didn't make it back in though.
Kerry snapped this picture at just the right moment. This is the most that Taylor was able to make it out of the water. She tried quite a few times though and that is all that really matters. This was her second time.
Kerry's a pro. Look at her cut to the outside! She cut back and forth across the wake a few times. I think we are going to have a lot of fun next summer!
I made it up on my first try too! I just got going good when the boat started to run out of gas. It is really hard to ski behind a boat that is stopping and starting. I still have a rib that is a little tender from last time we went skiing so I only did it one time.

The boat is running really well. I got it going 39 miles an hour today. I guess having one less person makes a difference. This is the first time that we have been out with just the family. I wish I had my scuba stuff because I really wanted to get under the water. I wouldn't have been able to see anything but I could have tried to find something with my metal detector!
