Daddy's Shoes

This is my new favorite picture of Joel. This is what Joel's personality is like-- that you don't get to see in pictures very much because I try to get him cute and smiling! Mike had to get a pair of work boots for work this week, so after a long debate the new shoes finally made their destination home. After daddy tried them on, it was Joel's turn. Mike put the boots on Joel and he thought that was the coolest thing to be just like daddy! He gave us the grin of the century and its becoming my favoite picture!


We also went to Great-Grandma's house to play in the water. She tells us when she is going to irrigate and we get to bring the kids over to play in the water. Joel was a little nervous at first- but then took to the water like a pro! He loved to splash and run through the water! He got to play with is second cousin Macey. Joel was doing the worm in the water as well as a little boy can, and Macey would sit thier and clap- cheering him on. They did it over and over. It made a very funny show!
This picture is proof! When Joel grows up- it was Aunt Elise that did all the mean things to him and tortured him--- not his mom or dad!!! All Elise's fault!

That picture of him in his daddy's shoes should definitely be in his senior slideshow! Too cute! That looked like fun playing in the water!
