Skimming at the river

We love going to the river to hang out and have James attempt to teach us to skim. The boys like to try a couple of times and then do other stuff, but I just plain can't do it. You will see how lame I am at the end of the video ( and p.s. in retrospect, I have two words for myself: sun bathing).
Skiz just likes to sit in the water and throw mud at anyone close.
