Successful Sailing Trip

So, we decided to try sailing together as a family again Sunday. The last attempt was very unsuccessful but this time was wonderful. We still are not smooth at going in and out of the water. We definitely need some practice there but overall it was really fun. The kids got comfortable with the tilting of the boat when the wind took the sails (I am sure there is a technical term for this that Matt will nicely point out). Riley really enjoyed it and Carter was ok until he got tired so we called it quits after almost four hours. Here are a few shots that we got. The last picture is of the kids Saturday night. We celebrated my niece and nephew's birthday and the kids were eating cake and ice cream. Emily is there on the end but you can barely see her.
