Fun with a body board in the country!

We went for a bit of a wander in the sheep paddock this afternoon & discovered an old body board. It just happened to be found at the bottom of a hill which was covered in dry grass & red dirt. Colton decided he would have a go at sliding down the hill on the body board. From there it escalated into doubling, tripling & then all four of them had a go together. We certainly were entertaining the passing 'peak hour' traffic! The boys had so much fun & best of all they were so tired tonight that they all went to sleep without any fuss. Must have been all the climbing back up the hill. I'm sure this will become a favourite activity in the months to come.


The hill used for body boarding.

Colton & Tyrus get the board in position for their turn.



Ready, set, go!


Climbing back up the hill. Wyatt used an old bandage as a rope to help them.



Tyrus has a turn by himself.

Do you think he enjoyed it?



Colton takes Taylan for a slide.

Who is enjoying this more? Taylan got off at the bottom & wanted to do it all again....not that you can tell by his face.


Colton was happy to take Taylan for as many slides as he liked.



Colton jumping on the back of Wyatt's slide. No, no one got hurt believe it or not!


Colton push starts Wyatt, Tyrus & Taylan for a triple slide.

Taylan made sure he was hanging on tight & Tyrus was just laughing all the way to the bottom.

A big smile before they all go down together!


Dare devils eat your heart out.



And they made it safely still stuck together on the board, yay!


All smiles at the bottom too.

Colton decides to do some crazy sliding. No surprises there!


They landed at the bottom sitting up properly together. Not sure how they did it though.
