First waterski tournament

We competed in our first waterski tournament in too many years this weekend and Nathan and Maddie competed in their first tournament ever!

Nathan and Maddie are so proud of their first Medals. Nathan finished second and Maddie finished first. I don't think Nathan realizes Maddie beat him. Maddie did all of her tricks (side slides, touching the water, waving to the judge and for style points Blowing a Kiss). Nathan was focused on doing a hard trick (crossing the wake) which he couldn't quite do behind the wake of a big wakeboard boat and he forgot to do the easier tricks.

Heather won her division in slalom among some stiff competition and I finished second in my slalom division. I also won my kneeboard class.

Nathan wasn't able to get up for his slalom pass. It was his first attempt ever behind a boat ;). He wanted to try though.

I think the medals have given the kids some motivation.
