Water Fun

My parents got a kneeboard this year and it has provided lots of fun on the water.  

Practicing a 360 on the dock

Then nailing it behind the boat.  He was so excited to finally get it after quite a few failed attempts.

 He has gotten very confident on the kneeboard and loves to show off going one handed, dragging one hand in the water.  He goes in and out of the wake and has even caught some air a few times.

 Kyle's favorite spot is in the boat as flagger.

 We finally convinced him to attempt the kneeboard himself.

If you blow the picture up you can see his big smile.  He is still a little nervous behind the boat but he is getting braver.

 Another huge victory this summer.  Evan tried and tried to wakeboard last year with no luck, but this year he popped right up.  It is so fun to see him getting the hang of this stuff.

  Love the nose plugging as he lets go to come in.

  Grace prefers to just play at the dock.  She jumps in over and over and over again.  She's a pretty cute flagger when she decides to go though.

We talked her in to kneeboarding too.

She was very excited before it started, looked terrified for the 20 feet she held on, and then refused to try again.  Strangely enough when we got her in her reaction to it all was "THAT WAS AWESOME!"  Not awesome enough to try it since then, but she says she loves it.

It's been a fun summer on the lake.  Hopefully we get in a few more lake days before school starts again.
