Boating Fun!

Sunday afternoon we went boating with a couple from church. They like to ski and tube and love to take people out with them. We spent the first part of our adventure boating in the rivers and lakes around Lake Charles. It's amazing how much faster you can get places here by boat as opposed to by car (a 45 minute car ride took about 15 minutes by boat). After we did our tour of the neighborhood, Dave and I both tubed and then Dave tried his hand at skiing. He has never been water skiing before and did a great job (after a few face plants into the water). I haven't skied since I was 12 or 13 so I passed this time, but I'm sure I'll get out there soon :) Enjoy the photos!

James enjoyed the boat ride...I enjoyed the wind-blown hair :)

But he figured it out and did a great job. On about his 5th attempt he was up for awhile!
