New Store!

So I am starting a new venture. We all knew my plan right? It was to buy a new camera so I could start up my photo business again right?
Well that just didn't workout. Money is a little tight. So I thought what else can I do to help out with finances and hopefully in couple months save a bit to help buy my camera.
BOWS. Yep I know I am a weird. But you all know I have an obsession with making Girls Hiar Bows. So I might as well put my crazy hobby to work for me hu?
So here I go. My new store opened up today. It is an ebay store. http://stores.ebay.com/hoppershoppinhaircreations. I will also put a link on the side. I already had one set up from a long time ago so that was the easiest place to sell. I might eventually move on to etsy but for now just ebay. I also have a blog where I have been posting all my bows. It is www.hopperhoppinhaircreations.blogspot.com
The name of my store Is...... You guessed it Hopper's Hoppin Hair Creations. So please please go check it out. I am also having a FREE GIVEAWAY on my hopperhoppin blog so go sign up for that and tell all your friends too. Nothing is better than free hu? Thank you all for your support you guys are the best. Please let me know what you think.



Wanted to share some randome picture of Maddy. Saved the best for last

She had a rough night so daddy slept with her. So Sweet.

new favorite song

So usually I would not share my favorite song with ya all but the first time I heard it, it brought me to tears. You might have already heard of it. I am a little slow sometimes he he. It is called "In my arms" by Plumb. The first thing I thought of when I heard it was of Maddy and than of our Heavenly Father's love. It is not a church song but it is just what I though of. I added it to my playlist and here are the words. Just wanted to share.

Your baby blues
so full of wonder
your curly cues
your contagious smile
and as I watch
you start to grow up
all I can do is hold you tight

Knowing clouds will rage
and storms will race in
but you will be safe in my arms
rains will pour down
waves will crash all around
but you will be safe in my arms

Story books full of fairy tales
of kings and queens and bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies

When the clouds will rage
and storms will race in
but you will be safe in my arms
rains will pour down
waves will crash all around
but you will be safe in my arms

Castles they might crumble
dreams may not come true
but you are never all alone
because I will always
always love you

Hey I
Hey I

When the clouds will rage
and storms will race in
but you will be safe in my arms
rains will pour down
waves will crash all around
but you will be safe in my arms

New Ring

About six months ago my poor ring was mistakenly put to rest, down the drain. Luckily we had it insured so I was able to get a new one. I was sad to lose it because I loved it but this one is also gorgeous.
The new ring is only the real exciting thing that has happened. We are not able to get out much because it is just too hot. We do go swimming quit a bit but that is about all. Maddy has learned a couple new things. She has learned to open the fridge so i am constantly finding random food items all over the house. She has also mastered the art of dressing herself and redressing she goes through atleast 4 outfits a day. My little Maddy, we lover her.

Tub

It is so hot in Arizona. People from here say that it is not even that bad yet. AHHHHH. I am going to melt. Last week I think it got up to around 117. Our apartment has a swimming pool but when it is that hot swimming still does not cool you down cause the water is warm and the sun is so intense. Maddy is constantly asking to go swimming so instead of the pool we use our tub. So far it seems to keep her just as content as the pool would. I think is just the water, she loves water!I think all kids love water. So here are just some cute shoots I caught of her in her pool/tub.

Wanted to share with you these cute hamburger cupcakes Maddy and I made for Casey on Father's day. Aren't they so fun. I can't take credit for the idea, I found it on one of my favorite sites www.bakerella.com . She has such crafty fun ideas for treats and we all know I love me some treats :).

INPUT PLEASE

I am starting my photography up once again.... This moving stuff has put a little damper on my hobby/business, oh well such is life, Hu? I am going at it full force again. I have made a couple branding logos and would like your opinion. What one do you like best? what one is your least fav? Or do you think they all look like crap. It's ok I can take it.. he he.
I have my new website up and running and will give you the address in just a couple days. A couple more little tweaks and that also will be ready for some opinions. But first thing is first the logos. Here are my top three (not in any particular order). I also loaded them on a picture so you can see what they would look like in action. THANK YOU! fancy
