Shoes

Last week Elias got new shoes. There is a story behind these shoes...but first I want to remember his old shoes. Sandals bought by Grandma at the beginning of the summer. Sandals worn everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE! The great thing about these sandals is they could get dirty, muddy, sandy and stinky, and all I had to do was wash them. They cleaned right up, except for the 'stinky' part!

They were great shoes...we miss them. But with the cooler weather coming (and the 'stink' growing) it was time for new shoes.



That is right folks, he has WIDE shoes. Boy was it tough to find a pair that fit. After visiting 3 stores, trying to stuff his feet into shoes that didn't fit, Elias crying to get them off, we finally found this one pair. Nothing else to choose between. This is what he gets! Grandma and I might have to make a trip to a big city to stock up on shoes for the poor guy.
