Heather : Oh my goodness! I got the biggest smile on my face when I read that your new obsession is rummikub because that is one game that I insist on playing every time my husband and I are with friends. You were right on the money when you described why it's so amazing...my sentiments exactly! touche 4.2.10, 1:16PM

Linnie: I've been having one of those weeks two and I'm going to try really hard to be like you and take the high road... sometimes it's a little difficult though! My favorite color combo for spring/summer weddings is what I'm doing for my wedding this upcoming July... hot pink and grass green! It might be last season but I don't care, it's going to be bright and sunny and garden-y! 3.8.10, 9:32PM

whitney: so glad that your week improved! that dress is a dream! if i were to do my wedding over and have it in the summer i would either choose a robins egg blue/red/white with a splash of kelly green or use a wildflower palette with lots of fresh lavender everywhere 2.8.10, 3:24PM

Diana: Last time I visited my parents I found out what their new obsession was: Rummikub (which I prefer to pronounce how its spelled Rummi-cub :) ). But netherless, I agree! It hits the fine line and makes me think of a Scrabble for those who are spelling challenged. 2.8.10, 12:04AM

Fallon: My spring color combo is charcol grey, grape purple and the green you get when you mix olive and lime together "olivime"... lol 2.6.10, 4:55AM

Bobbie Brown: Okay, first off I love Thursday Thoughts... please don't make it just once a month! I LOVE these images, especially the last one... AWESOME! I can't wait to see a full post on this! 2.5.10, 3:13PM

Heather Disarro: oh, i love the shot of the couple. it's a perfect mix of this in-between winter/spring time of year...gorgeous! 2.5.10, 1:47PM

Kim Spears: Awesome post :) Loved your insight. There is a great youtube video called Douche Bag Anthem, you might like it ;) 2.5.10, 1:09PM

Lisa: I'm doing a wedding in July and the colors are hot pink and orange. Once I saw them together, I love it! They're bright, fun and totally summer. I totally agree about Taylor Swift winning album of the year except I don't think she's a good singer at all. And those dance moves of her! Please Taylor just stand still when you sing! 2.5.10, 7:48AM

Jacqueline : If you like games, you should try Things (In A Box) if you haven't already! It's a bigger group game, but it's hilarious :) 2.4.10, 10:58PM

Chanelle Segerius-Bruce: Just been watching the live chat with thebschool. Great to here more insight from you, thanks! I South African based in the chilly UK. You guys should all come to SWPP Convention 2011. 2.4.10, 7:42PM

cindy: first, i've been peeping your blog for some time now and i love your photos! i don't know what the best summer wedding colors are, but for my wedding in june i chose various shades of purple and raspberry pink. i'm a big fan of cream and gold too...so lovely. hope next week fares better! 2.4.10, 6:32PM

Crystal Le Mamoulelis: I'm glad your week is better! Thanks for sharing that with us. It's nice to see how down to earth you are! PS. Watching [b]school as we speak! Great job! 2.4.10, 6:31PM

Melissa @ Whooo's That Girl: Good for you for making changes! It's not always to admit our mistakes, so I applaud you for doing it! I love, LOVE the photo of the birdhouse with the little teapot on it! 2.4.10, 6:21PM

Em Heizer Photo: *I* think that you should continue to do thursday thoughts EVERY week Jess. Look at that week where it was your only post in 7 days... Well, if you weren't doing Thusday Thoughts, then there wouldn't have been any posts at all for a couple weeks. That's a really long time! I think you should stick with Thursday thought and make it a goal to do a photo post on Mondays or something. So it's clock work. So you know, every Monday morning the first thing you do is write up a little ditty for that blog and then you're off the hook the rest of the week. I'm very into shades of grey with yellow right now. I'm not sure that's too summery though. Red and Aqua is a fav too. 2.4.10, 6:19PM

Alicia Swedenborg: I always try to think: you have to climp a uphill to be able to enjoy a downhill! I will definitely stay up (1 a.m. in Sweden) and watch you in Study Hall - see you then! :) 2.4.10, 5:50PM

Allie: Totally understand your highs and lows! Some weeks are so great and then some are just so-so. But, Jessica! Taylor Swift won album of the year because she is AMAZINGLY talented. Her cd is so great and has songs that speak from the heart. Plus she is such a great live performer and she is the sweetest person! She deserves it. Listen to her cd! 2.4.10, 5:48PM

Jenifer Simpson: I so know what you mean...it has been a rough week here too...but I look at it this way, today is friday eve, and if I can just make it to the weekend, Monday is kind of like a "do over" ...at least that is what I am going to keep saying until I feel better...BTW...Did that dress come from Unique Vintage?...My sister has a dress that looks almost exactly like that from there, except hers is blue and champagne. Hope things look better for you soon:) 2.4.10, 4:06PM

Christen: I can definitely relate to the highs and lows lately... Its funny how you just want to stop blogging when you are in a funk... but, there is just as much beauty in the brokenness. I appreciate your honesty today. Thanks for sharing. 2.4.10, 3:34PM

Sarah: I don't usually comment on the blogs I stalk;) but since it's my New Year's resolution to give more feedback to blogs I look at AND since you've had a bad week- I just want to say your work is amazing & completely inspiring!!! I can't wait to see more photos from the snow day shoot! Keep your chin up:) 2.4.10, 3:29PM

Evie Perez: You sure did hit it with this post. I have been having one of those down weeks and have been in a funk :( It's time to get over it and move on!!!!! Thanks for being open and honest. 2.4.10, 3:21PM
