My favorite source of music is movie soundtracks. The best songs always come from soundtracks. My favorites over the years have included Sleepless in Seattle, Runaway Bride, and Meet the Robinsons. And a million others. You'll recognize Le Festin by Camille. I've been wanting to use this one for years and finally had the footage to work with it. Woot!
(Parenthetically, did you know that "woot" --which is an interjection similar to "yay!" or "woohoo!"--actually began from Dungeons and Dragons as an abbreviation of their term, "Wow, loot!" Apparently it spread. Interesting. You can add that to your Gee Wiz file.)

Interesting about the woot... I did not know that!
And I looooooove this song. Joseph wasn't a huge fan of Ratatouille, not sure why.
Oh and super cute video of the super cute kids! of course :)
fun memories for those kids - way to go
very cute :) And that "woot" trivia was really interesting. Good old Dungeons and Dragons.
Love it!
Loved it! Celeste wanted to watch it over and over again. (We did watch it at least a few times this morning.)
I loved watching the kids following you around as you rolled the snow man's body.
I love the footage of you (at least I think it's you) rolling the snow into big balls and all the little kiddos right on your tail following behind... you do all the work and they follow behind probably thinking to themselves, "can't she hurry up?!"... I LOVE movie soundtracks too... they're usually what makes me get all emotional during movies... a movie without songs would be just plan dumb in my opinion... I LOVE any movie with music from James Horner in it.. he is the B.E.S.T.... if I wanted to make a little movie and use his music though, I might have to find some footage of the boys fighting since a lot of his music I love is from epic war movies... I guess it shouldn't be hard to find though considering I do have 4 boys who DO like to sword fight and wrestle.
See, that's what's so awesome about you - your blog is entertaining AND educational!
Okay, Enoch makes the best robot EVER! What a cutie.
Cute! I was just listening to that song today. Love it!
Aubrey - What is really funny about Celeste wanting to watch it over and over is that she'd already seen it twice yesterday! (I had it done but hadn't uploaded it yet.) She is so cute!
jayson called his mom the other week to see if she could find his old halloween costume. she found the hat, but hadn't been able to find the rest of the costume.
he was watching your movie over my shoulder and when he saw enoch he started yelling "that's it! That's my costume!"
so if that costume is ever in the DI bin, please send it my way. he'd love it!
cute movie. your snowman is much cuter than mine was.
Your kids are so beautiful! :)
Cute video-- and I love knowing the background of WOOT! HAhahha, wow, loot!
i love movie soundtracks too. ratatouille is one of my favs!
cute movie, cute kids!
wow, had no idea about woot!
Thanks for the history on "woot". I think I'll pull that one out during my next awkward conversation, which will be soon.
You know, my freshman year at college, Erik and Timm's roommate always used to say "woot" and I just thought, "what the heck does that mean? must be computer geek vocabulary." Then I married Allen and he used it. And now we visit the woot.com site for awesome deals almost daily. :)
cute. i love these videos.
