New Year, New Look, New Content
by Ashley Weeks Cart
As you can see, Blog a la Cart is undergoing a face lift. Given all the changes in our lives in 2012, I thought I needed a new header to reflect the shift; Ursa as a tripawd, complete with chickens and a cart wheel. Many thanks to the talented Robbi Behr of Idiots’ Books for the new illustration. I love love love it.
I’ve also adjusted the size of the blog to better showcase our photography and video. Given that that has become a key component of the content on this blog, and the wondrous Kate Drew Miller and I have a new venture up our sleeves that we’ll be unveiling this month, plus the addition of the Canon 5D Mark III in our household thanks to ever-generous Momar and Doda, I needed a space to really highlight all of this goodness. I see big creative things on the 2013 horizon, and I needed this space ready for what’s to come.
Thanks for following us on this journey. I am hoping for a 2013 filled with less loss, heartache and upheaval, and more fun and creative adventures! xo Ash
It is lovely. Ya know, just like you. <3
OH MY GOD ASH.
I just got the Cart/Cartwheel reference.
Holy shit woman. This chronic lack-of-sleep-because-my-child-never-fucking-sleeps thing is really getting to me.
Love you.

P.S. Excuse the language. I’m on two hours of sleep last night because my lovely little flower of a child was dreaming something that involved punching me and yelling NO!!! at the top of her lungs. I wish I was joking.
You are too funny! Yes yes – Cart – Cartwheel – nerdy wordplay abounds!! Love you!
Loving the new banner!
This is so good!
You changed the dog too, like you mentioned in BS!! LOVE!!
I love it!?
lovely new banner!
It caught my eye straight away. Love it and represent so much your family and the spirit of the blog. Happy New Year from all the family from our chalet in the mountains. Really hope that one day you guys can make it to France to visit us. Lots of love Ashley, James, Courtland and Addison.
Hey, I’m just now getting around to blog housekeeping. Love how it looks! And thanks for the compliments!
I’m not going to scream it from the rooftops, but pay attention everyone: basically Ashley is the best person to work with ever ever ever (this means: she lets me do what I want. Bang!).
Here’s to those big creative things in 2013!
Aw, shucks!
