A couple of weeks ago I took Jared and his buddy sledding, when we got there Jared (5) informed me that sitting on his sled was "dumb." The next thing I knew he was flying down the hill standing on his sled, that he kept referring to as his "Big Board." I took as many pictures as I could as fast as I could and this is what I captured. 
This picture is priceless, and says it all! He did this for over an hour straight and cried when it was time to go. He would stand on the board and ride to the bottom of the hill without falling. I really could not believe what I was seeing, I think we might have to get him up on the slopes! He had absolutely no fear and no question in his mind that he could do it, it reminded me of the time when he was 2 and he told me he could swim all by his "selth" as he jumped off the side of the pool into the deep end. I never knew I could swim that fast, he still tried to talk me into letting him go after my rescue! The snowboarding went a little better than the swimming. Check out the slide show at the end of my blog page to see a few more pics of Bubba Boarding!
