Egypt's Path (2010 to 2020) - Part IV

Egypt ran away from us the first time she saw a pool and jumped right in the water. I took off right behind her and her head had already emerged with a gigantic ear to ear grin. She was a natural in the water. Since that day, Egypt has never passed up an opportunity to get wet- ice-cold water, wearing clothes, it doesn’t matter, she never hesitates to jump. I guess that’s not entirely true, spending her first 6 ½ years in Florida, Egypt always asked, “Do alligators live in this water?” before jumping in natural bodies of water.

2017 (Kellisa's First 18 Years)

Kellisa Keeps Her Side  and Reaches 18 

After moving across the country in 2016 and finishing our quest to hike in all 50 states, 2017 was still a year filled with many adventures  and fun times.

 

The year started out with some of Kellisa's hiking adventures featured in the new book, families on foot. We also went to Yosemite National Park for the first time, and the girls enjoyed Disney on Ice in Sacramento. Our family vacation for the year was a week in the Pacific Northwest where we visited several national parks and hiked with a large group of wheelchairs. Kellisa really enjoyed not being the only one in a chair on a trail.
