Most precious memory in my life

When I was a child, I use to love Christmas days and every end of the session celebrations in school.
During one of the Christmas picnic we had, my dad who have been promising to take us out on picnic, finally decided to keep his words. He has always been making promises of taking us out, but due to one reason of the other, he hardly keep his words, but on that faithful day, he kept his promise.

That year (2010), Christmas happens to fall on Saturday, and in preparation for the picnic, my mum started making arrangements of Friday, and she continued on Saturday morning before leaving for church. She cooked us a delicious fried-rice, and she also prepared a monthwatering meat.

After church programs on Saturday, we departed our house at exactly 12 noon. I and my sister's were so happy on our new clothes. As my dad was driving us in his car, we could all smell the aroma of the fried-rice that my mum packed in her lunch box. Because we were so anxious to reach our destination, the hours we spend on the road seems more like a day to us, but we were all glad to arrive yanakari game reserve before 3:30pm.

On arriving at yankari game reserve, we discovered that there were already thousands of picnickers enjoying themselves. The place was so amazing with different tents, and a lot of beautiful beach wears worn by picnickers. Looking at the population of the people that were already there, my dad chosed a beautiful and quite spot for us to relax.

While relaxing, my mum brought out her homemade fruit juice, and we were all served. The fried rice that my mum cooked was wow.... I believe it is still the best I have eaten so far. After our meal, my parents allowed us to join other kids to play. We rided on horses, we swimed, we rided on bycicles, and many more. Although, at first I was afraid to ride on horse, but when I saw some kids of my age riding on it, I summoned courage.

After many hours of catching fun, we decided to take away back home. It was actually a memorable day for us. It was full of fun and memories. I wish I can go back to those days.

I immortalized the above memory as my best because, it was the most amazing day I spent with my family as a child. Like I said earlier, the above event took place on 25/12/2010. I was actually a child then, but those memories are still fresh in my brain. Now I realize that little time of fun with family members, can actually go a long way in life.

Today I am an adult, but the little Christmas picnic I enjoyed with my family as child, remains my best and most memorable moment. This it to encourage each and everyone to always make time of fun for the family. Go out with your family and catch fun.
