Bryant Dancing
Byrant is a great dancer. He has got some serious moves. Stake dances are going to be a hoot.

Botanical Gardens Christmas Display
Last Wednesday we met up with Amy, Tyler, and their kids in D.C. to visit the U.S. Botanical Gardens. They put together an elaborate Christmas display that is a must see. The pictures I took didn't turn out awesome, but I'll share them anyway.

Naughty List
Yesterday Alice and Bryant had the following conversation about Santa's naughty list.
Bryant: Alice, you're going to be on the naughty list.
Mom: that's not a nice thing to say.
Bryant: I know. Benjamin told me I be on the naughty list, and I'm freaking out.
Alice: What does "freaking out" mean?
Bryant: It's like when you're sad and you get frustrated and stuff.
Alice: No, it means like you're frustrated and can't hold your temperature (temper:)).
We have to love these rugrats of ours.

Chopping wood
Bryant and I chopped some wood for a fire tonight. Having a working fireplace is a real plus at this house. Snow is forcast for Saturday.

Time Flies
Life is good. Time is flying and I can't get enough done. The weather today is in the 60's and it is sunny and beautiful--I hope sorta hope there is snow for Christmas but for now I'm sure happy.

Chocolate Kiss Cookies
So here is a recipe that I made last Sunday (it was great on Fast Sunday)
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cut brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp milk
1 3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 bag Hershey's Kisses
350 degrees in oven for 8-10 minutes.
Put the Kisses on the cookies as they cool.
I doubled the recipe, and it was awesome.
A kitchen full of cookies is a beautiful thing!!

Where Did The Summer Go?
Well, on Tuesday school starts and summer is officially over. We had some fun while it lasted though and here is a quick recap on some of our adventures...
We spent the 4th of July in Washington D.C. and it was truly spectacular!!!
The Parade in the morning, the fireworks at night and TONS of people in between.
