Boating

Taylor style...
See we McBrides are kind of wimpy novices when it comes to doing all the fun tricks you can do behind a boat.

I mean, we are pros at jumping in....."Cannon ball!"

We can do a dive or two...Swim like fish in the water...Pose like surfers...and front flip from the deck.Owen's only skill....pushing cute girls off the boat.But when we went out with the Taylors....it was on! Even their 18 mo. old Indie (is she not the cutest thing you've ever laid eyes on?) surfs with her dad!Oh, ya, no fear in her! She WANTS to touch the water!She's happy as a clam on that surf board!Her adorable, big sis, Liv....surfer girl too!Oh, and that's their mom, Sally, she's pretty much the pro. Can she do a 360? With ease and grace!So, Bob and Pay tried too.
They gave me some much needed tips on how to TRY to jump the wake!
Here's what that's supposed to look like.Even Miss Aves did a little surfing action, thanks to Brandon.
Sally was nice enough to play captain so I could take some pics.
Here's Bob enjoying a few waves!
Sally made surfing look so easy. I tried, I really did. There's no pics. Funny thing is, the ones of me didn't download. Bob doesn't believe me, but it's true...can't say I'm disapointed. I think it's a camera miracle, really.
Taylors.....thanks for giving us boating lessons 101. You guys were more than patient and helpful with our novice crew. We had such a fun day on the lake with you, mad-skilled, mega fun seekers!
Boating....Taylor style....we liked it!
