Beautiful Photos: Jones Photography

It's been an incredibly trying day over here trying to deal with child-sharing and lack of child support. INCREDIBLY TRYING. Let me tell you, I am going to throw my hands up in the air and rejoice on the date of my would-have-been-wedding. REJOICE. Okay, I am a bit extra angry today (I have good reason to be), and to be honest, sometimes I do feel a bit bummed at the *idea* of everything being lost and gone. You know, the idea of a beautiful wedding and one happy family... but (now) I know the reality of what my life would have been and I know Marlowe and I are much better off this way--- without all the problems (or with a lot less problems anyway). The problems aren't here present in my home, everyday--- and thats reason enough to be happy and grateful. But speaking of weddings, and rejoicing, and just being happy and grateful... I wanted to share with you some really, truly beautiful photos taken by some amazing people: The Jones. They had contacted me about photographing the wedding and after peeking onto their site I was really happy the universe had brought them my way. Well, I'm bummed I wont be working with these awesome people, but I thought I should share some of their photos, because the beauty in them is enough to put a little calm in anyones day, no matter how trying it may or may not be :)

And I promised if they were in ever in Florida they should come by so I can prepare a large feast for them :) 

(My favorite. I have a soft spot for Nepal)

You can check out their site HERE or scroll through their blog of beautiful photos HERE. 

Also, if you're on instagram, they are obviously great people to follow there! paigefjones and michaeljones7 :) 

On some other notes...

I'm still convinced the universe is on my side. There is an organic cafe, two blocks from my house, that has been "opening soon" for about six months. They finally posted a menu on their door so I decided to run by and check it out today.... WELL, I had a bit of a hard time figuring out the menu, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to have vegan pizza two blocks from my house! TWO BLOCKS. VEGAN PIZZA. The fat kid in me is so freakin' happy. Seriously, the universe was just like "Sorry about the crappy things you're dealing with today, here is some fat kid happiness!". Thank you, universe!

Also, I want to say THANK YOU so much to all the people who voted for me for Apartment Therapy's The Homies. Ohdeardrea wont be making it to the finales, I think we are at least 40 away? I don't know, I haven't checked recently, but we're pretty far off. Either way: Thank you so much! Regardless of making it to the finales or not, it's such a good feeling just to be up there and see the votes coming in, so thank you!
