Sprinklers

This afternoon we had some old school summer fun. Hailey ran through the sprinklers for the first time! She had so much fun! We had a little situation when she fell and cut her finger, it definitely bothered her daddy more than it did her. Until we put a band aid on it to get the bleeding to stop, she acted like the band aid disabled her finger, and walked around showing it to everyone.
