Kellisa really
started to thrive with her new found medical stability. She started taking
dance lessons and it was obvious from the start that Kellisa has the heart of a
dancer. Kellisa danced in her first recital and she garnered the loudest cheers from the audience during the encore.
We expanded our outdoor adventures beyond trails as Kellisa started kayaking. Her favorite
part was helping to paddle and splashing her hands in the water.
Our big summer trip for the year was to the Four Corners region of the American Southwest. We hiked to the rim of Bandera Volcano, deep inside an Ice Cave, the Four Corners Marker, Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, Monument Valley, and Canyon de Chelly. This was the first trip where we really started pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with a new jog stroller manufactured for larger disabled kids.
