Do you remember those moments as a kid where you were just having fun? The moments where nothing else mattered but playing outside all day. Moments where you didn't want the day to end. Moments that you call to mind every now and then, and they never fail to bring a smile to your face. Thankfully I have had quite a few of those moments in the past 30 years, and thankfully those moments keep coming.
I remember being on a 4 wheeler all day long and getting so muddy that I had to wash off with a hose before I was allowed in the house.
There was the time when we discovered a game that combined bumper cars, lacrosse, and basketball....yes...it's amazing as it sounds.
Genius people actually invented a place where there is wall to wall trampolines...yep...it's really true.
Or that time when I was holding on for my life in a raft in the middle of the Nile river....and a few moments after this photo was taken I had to be rescued by a kayak!!
My most recent crazy fun, I'm a kid again, moment came while I was vacationing with a friend in Dubai. We decided to ride dune buggies in the desert.....and it was as awesome as it sounded. We each hopped on one of these....
Yep, it was incredible. Basically, we each had our own dune buggy and we followed a leader around the desert. My favorite part was when we were riding along the top of a dune and I saw the leader disappear and then Brittany would disappear, and I knew I was getting ready for fly down the dune. It was a great roller coaster ride in the middle of the desert. Multiple times I caught myself laughing out loud out of pure joy. I would quickly close my mouth because of all the dust.....but you get the picture. After it was all over, Brittany and I climbed out of the buggy, high fived, and we haven't stopped talking about how awesome it was.
