Family Time and Oh Yeah....the Cake Boss

So today was a great day.  The boys and I had a few errands to go run.  We headed out and started with uniforms at Dennis LaRose, and then Shoes at the Shoe Dept.  They both got what they wanted, the classic gray new balance for John Michael and Gray and Black Nike shoes for Danny.  We managed to stay within the uniform requirements and had two happy boys, which meant one happy momma.  No fighting over clothes makes me happy.  Of course I cannot believe how much I spent on not very much of anything.  The to buy list never seems to shrink, at least school supplies have been taken care of, thank you Innsbrooke!
When we got home Aunt B was here with Hunter, Hayden, and Hudson.  Meme, Pop, Meemaw, Uncle Brett and Aunt Mindy were not far behind. We had planned a night with family, and some swimming.  What we did not plan on but was AMAZING was that Brett and Mindy returned from New York with a cake from Carlos Bakery.  It was absolutely amazing, yep, now I know that Hoboken is on my must go to as soon as possible list.  They also brought a brownie and a canoli, the canoli was one of the best things that I have ever put into my mouth.  WOW is all that I can say!  Thanks again Brett and Mindy for sharing, it was a GREAT treat.
It was so nice spending time with the family.  We do not get to see them often so it was definitely a treat.  We all decided to go swimming for a little while.  We figured we could all unwind and the kiddos could wear themselves out even more.  Nick and Jessica and the kids came up for a while too.  I know that they were glad to see Brett and Mindy and the boys too. 
As we were leaving the pool Jessica passed out.  I took the kids to my house while Brandon, Brett, and Teresa stayed to help Nick.  Please say a prayer that she will find a cure or at least some relief soon  I know that this illness is very hard on her.  We are all just thankful that she is ok.
