I don't do dishes!

What a weekend! If you have ever wanted to know how the Gourleys spend their weekends here is a taste of this weekend anyway:
Saturday Brian had to work of course - retail for you! Leelyn cried all day Saturday and for the life of me, I just could not figure him out! I tried everything and even putting him to breast wasn't making him happy. I think I called Brian at 4:00 and told him he needed to leave work right at 5:00 because I was about to go crazy! Blaine was even covering his ears telling me to make Leelyn be quiet - that is pretty bad. I ended up pouring myself a cold alcoholic beverage about 4:30. Brian made it home by 5:20, thank God! We all headed out to the front yard where I was more then happy to chill out! Here I am picture courtesy of my hubby, lol. Blaine decided to water the flowers and Leelyn which was so nice of him! I continued my relaxation (thanks Brian) while the boys played. Blaine also decided he needed a drink break and so did I, again! Brian finally decided to ask if I was all right after my second cold beverage, ha! We played for a bit longer and then went out to O'Charley's for dinner and did you know that kids eat FREE every night?! WOW, LOVE that because we waste so much money on the kids menu for Blaine when we go out - he hardly touches his food it seems like. **Brian drove.**



We had Gourley family fun day scheduled for Sunday. We decided to drive out to Augusta and take Blaine to a farm out that way to pick berries, we were all very excited because we have heard it is beautiful wine country out that way. I know we are a little crazy for taking an hour drive with the outrageous price of gas today but it was BEAUTIFUL and worth the $65.00 that didn't even fill up my tank, LOL~ the roads were curvy and very hilly. Blaine watched a movie, Leelyn slept so we very much got to enjoy the scenery.Uncle D would love driving his Harley through the hills - lot's of bikers! Well, needless to say the farm we wanted to visit was CLOSED!? We double checked and the website did say they were open. Blaine was pretty disappointed as we kept singing "going on a berry hunt, gonna pick some juicy ones" (Dora song). So we stopped at the Olive Garden on the way home, I was craving lemonade and salad.Now that's a lemonade~Found a quarter by my car door, so the day was looking better, ha! We ventured to Target Great land to purchase Blaine a slip 'n slide he has wanted and begged us for, for over a week now, ugh!
Had to get matching swimwear for them! (Old Navy)

Ended the day with a little snuggle time and then went to get my pedi and relax. The color I chose was:
I DON'T DO DISHES! XOXO

What a great idea to do family fun days. Your pictures are amazing and hilarious. Glad you got to chill out with a cold beverage, I know how difficult a crying baby can be!

Love it - looks like a good time! Love the name of the nail polish too - my fav color is called "I'm not really a waitress" - gotta love the crazy/fun names they come up with!
