I Wanna be a Toys R Us Kid!!!



I turn 28 this week and though it may be young to some it still boggles my mind how long ago it was that I was born.. I mean come on not many people have good things to say about the early 80's.

While I was pondering what I have accomplished in my life I realized one thing about myself that I hope will never change. I am a KID at heart and I want to continue being that way forever. When you look at the world through a child's eyes there is so much optimism, imagination and honesty. I try not to let this child out to much ( hey I still have to make a living and interact with adults) but this weekend I decided I would let out my inner child and let it run free!!

I decided to take my husband and two friends to check out a new place it's called Airheads Trampoline Arena and it's AMAZING!!!! I really wish I would have thought of this idea. The trampolines cover 11,000 square feet. We only purchased and hour( hey there may be a child inside of me but my body still knows how old it is!)but that was more than enough time to fall in love with this place.

That was more than enough time. Once I stopped laughing about my shoes (which coincidentally looked like something from 1983)



I made my way to the trampoline arena. I stepped on the trampoline and my four year old self just took of!!! it was like I never aged.. I was STILL to chicken to do a flip but I was bouncing of the walls the whole time (literally) I played dodge ball which took me back to grade school, mainly because our teams we so uneven we had the jocks against us(who resembled the wolf pack!)and on our team there were three little boys and the three of us girls!(unlike grade school though the jocks took it easy on us and took out the little boys first!)

The time went by fast but in that hour i was able to be a kid again and really enjoy myself and not worry about bills, stress, egos I just worried about how high I wanted to jump! It's nice knowing that no matter how old you get it's the little things in life that you really appreciate.. so who is up for a game of HUNGRY HUNGRY HIPPOS? my inner child would like to kick your inner child's butt!


If you want to know more about Airheads this is a great article that was written back when it opened in Aug 2010
