Bocce Ball Thursday’s!

Every week on Thursday I go to the field behind CAFCL and I play Bocce Ball. My aide Johdi holds my ball and my hand so I can throw it. You have a little white ball on the field and you try to throw your ball closest to the white ball. They have set up individual lanes and you move to the next lane when you have completed one.

Here is me playing yesterday!

Where Have I Been?

When I Travel I sit in an airplane seat just like everyone else. I like to sit in the window seat so I can look down when we land.

I can’t bring my power chair on the plane so I have to bring a normal wheelchair. It goes where the normal luggage goes on a plane.

Without my power chair this means I don’t have control… I have to wait for my parents to push me everywhere!

When we went to Sedona, Arizona & Branson, Missouri we went on hikes but it was very hard for my Dad to push me.

It is very hard to go on sand with a wheelchair, but in Florida they had a sand wheelchair that we used and it sure helped my parents!

I can go on rides in Disney World but my Dad had to take me out of my wheelchair to go on the rides.

But in Disneyland they had a wheelchair accessible ride so it made it easier for my Dad!

Here are some pictures from my trips…

Bowling Tournament

This Saturday 4th of February 2017 I got to go  a out of town for Special Olympics in Leduc!
We played three games of bowling and my highest average before the tournament was 99 but at the tournament I got 129 then 120 then 129 again so my  best average.
We went out to a camp site for supper and awards! I got a second place ribbon, water bottle and some pins!
We had a LONG KARAOKE TIME and our table played UNO before supper!
Supper was at 6:30 to 7:30ish! They did the tables by towns to go up to get your food!
After supper they did awards! We left before they started the dance though!
