Loving Anna doing yoga.
Loving me doing yoga.
Loving how many times The Wizard of Oz has been watched since Christmas.
Loving the community that's developing around One Little Word (the class has open enrollment throughout the year so it's definitely not too late if you're interested in joining).
Loving that Project Life is now on my kitchen counter. I'll give an update in a post next week.
Loving reading through Karen Maezen Miller's blog archives and being inspired in all sorts of ways.
Loving commitments that I'm making to myself and keeping.
Loving that I roasted beets as a side dish for dinner the other night and Simon liked them (the kind of like where you can't help but smile when asked).
Loving that my parents will be here for Simon's birthday later this month. He will be 9.
Loving that I've got a date with a friend next week.
Loving that I'm almost done with the book Sabbath and I've enjoyed it so much I want to start it again.
Loving that it's almost the weekend and Simon and I are planning to take a test-run at doing some stop-animation with his legos.
Hope you have a great weekend!

Loving Anna can touch her heels to the floor in downward dog. . . and so wishing I was so limber. . . almost, but not quite there yet ;)

Both my sons used to do this, and I SO wish I knew then what I know now that getting down on the floor and taking that once-in-a-lifetime, always-to-be-cherished photo is priceless. Better late than never! Your picture of Anna reminded me of this. Thanks!

I love this photo of Anna. So sweet. I started pre-natal yoga this week (yeah, little late, but at least I'll get a few weeks) and it felt SO GOOD. I have missed the mat.

I am another one wishing I had that kind of flexibility. One of those use it or lose it kind of things.
Precious photo.

My son, who is 9 next month, and I did a stop motion video with his toys. All I did was push the shutter release. He did everything else. We loved it and want to do more. I hope you share yours.

We grew beets this year and my husband just remembered about them so he and daughter have been making red velvet cake and cupcakes with them! (even coloring the yummy frosting with the beet juice). The recipe is from the MooseWood desserts cookbook. We all LOVE beets here.

I gave my son a simple P&S camera for his 10th birthday on November 4. I also gave him the Klutz book 'Animation' (I think that is the title??). He and his 12 year old brother have been making stop motion animation features ever since. They use Legos, clay, chairs, anything and everything. I highly recommend the Klutz book. They also have another one on how to do tricks with video. They are all cool tricks and easily doable by kids. ENJOY!

Ali, do you and Anna use a yoga DVD or just go on your own? What DVD do you use, if there is one.
