It's always shocking to people that I have a thriving bow business and no little girls to dress up! Nevertheless, I've been doing this for alomost 5 years now and have made fabulous friends along the way. I love Jesus and I know that Hair Candy was a "God idea" It's been fun watching the those ideas come to reality. I've got ladies that work for me and do an incredible job! Thanks girls:) Now on to the blog...Hair Candyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11804910390926508446noreply@blogger.comBlogger185125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558167329756339312.post-8806145489985241922018-07-04T10:50:00.001-05:002018-07-04T10:50:07.286-05:00Bible Blast Kid's Bible Curriculum<b>Bible Blast and Bible Biz </b><br />
Spiritual revolution happens when kids come to know Jesus, rather
than just know about Jesus. Our work is to prepare the soil of kids’
hearts so seeds of faith can grow, and a true relationship with Jesus
can happen.<br />
When you use <a href="https://bibleblast.com/"><strong>Bible Blast Kids Bible curriculum</strong></a>, you know
each experience was purposely designed to create a social, emotional,
and spiritual environment that prepares hearts and minds for God to
work. We’re here to partner with you as you create lifelong disciples of
Jesus! <a href="https://bibleblast.com/"><img alt="kids church curriculum" class="size-full wp-image-17055 alignright" height="183" src="https://bibleblast.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/images-11.jpg" width="275" /></a><br />
<br />
Each Kids Bible curriculum is filled with intriguing experiences that
kids remember for a lifetime as their friendships with God continue to
grow.<br />
Strategically designed to turn young believers into finding the promises of God on their own, <strong><u>Kids Bible curriculum </u></strong>is
intended for ages 5th through 12th grades. The youth love the social
interaction of the gaming atmosphere. And they love the candy they can
win each week!<br />
Kids Bible curriculum is student-driven, designed to teach the young
person how to search the scriptures themselves without parental
assistance. Five times a week, student use their Kids Bible curriculum
Manuals to do a five-minute study of short portions of scripture. They
will use their study Bibles, be directed to maps, concordance
references, charts and commentaries teaching them how to study
scripture. After doing their short study at home, they come to church
each week prepared for a fun, exciting time of teaching and competition.<br />
Kids Bible curriculum begins the process of turning your child into a disciple of Christ on their own.Hair Candyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11804910390926508446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558167329756339312.post-46199027773082657252012-01-22T22:05:00.000-06:002012-01-22T22:05:34.385-06:00Farewell<div align="left">To all my Hair Candy Bows customers, </div><br />
<div align="left">Thank you for making the last 8 years such a success for Hair Candy Bows. After much thought and consideration, I have decided to close the business. With many life changes in the past 8 years, I had to decide what needed the most of my time and attention and that was my family.</div><br />
<div align="left">Effective immediately we will no longer be taking orders from this website. If you are a local customer, our entire remaining inventory at On The Corner is now marked to 50% off. We will also no longer be teaching our bow making classes as well. If you still have pending orders, they will be processed, made and shipped according to our normal shipping times. </div><br />
<div align="left">Again, thank you again to all of our great customers. It's been a joy to watch your little one grow up wearing Hair Candy products. It's been a fun ride and I'm glad I was able to meet so many wonderful people along the way. </div><br />
<div align="left">Sincerely, <br />

I was also reminded that it's been three years since our first baby met Jesus. <br />
<br />
Growing up the only thing I wanted to do was to be a wife and a mother. I was married at the age of 23 and was surprised when after a few years of marriage, life was perfect and the thoughts of children still seemed far away. <br />
<br />
Five years into our marriage I finally passed a pregnancy test. My husband and I always joked about my inablity to pass a test. I always failed my "tests" but this time was different because I had passed with flying colors!<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Our frist Dr visit with Baby Zee</td></tr>
</tbody></table>It was so exciting to be pregnant and my husband was already looking forward to being a dad. For the first time in our marriage we felt like we were ready to be parents. Unfortuantly, the pregnancy didn't go to term and our baby went to be with Jesus in Februray of 2009. We found out we were pregnant with our second child on July 4, 2010. <br />
<br />
Once we passed the point in the pregnancy where we had lost our first baby, excitement began to build. I had a dream that we were having a boy and in the dream we kept calling him Zee. The dream seemed to give our baby an identity, something for me to picture and hold on to. It's amazing how that in just a few weeks you fall in love with a baby you've never meet. All Matt and I could talk about the next few days was baby Zee. Baby Zee had quickly become a big part of our lives.<br />
<br />
<br />
Just days after the dream there were complications and I knew that our time with baby Zee would be short. The night we lost him was physically and emotionally hard. I don't think I was able to grasp what was happening. The only thing I knew is that I could trust God with all of this and He would be just what I needed. <br />
<br />
While going through it, God reminded me of a video I had seen on YouTube a couple of weeks earlier. The video was of a lady singing while she was in labor. It was the most peaceful, anointed song I had ever listened to. I played the video over and over and it brought such peace to me that night. God always gives me what I need, even if it's through YouTube:)<br />
<br />
My husband's mom died when he was a little boy. I miss the fact that I never got to meet her and often wonder what it would have been like to have known her. A few days after losing Zee, God gave me such a precious picture. Baby Zee would get to meet his grandma in Heaven. She would look after her grandson until I got there. It brought peace to me knowing that even though Zee wasn't with me, he had his grandma there with him. At that point I was able to let him go, knowing that he was in good hands with grandma and Jesus.<br />

</tbody></table>Just 3 weeks after loosing Zee we found out we were pregnant again. Our third son, Ty, was born just 2 months ago in June and I treasure every moment I have with him. I know that someday he will get to meet his brothers in Heaven.</div><div style="border: currentColor;"><br />
</div><div style="border: currentColor;">Before Ty came, I was reading the book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Real-Little-Astounding-Story/dp/0849946158"><em>Heaven Is For Real</em></a> by Todd Burpo. There is a part of the book where the wife talks about losing her daughter and her being in Heaven. That book really struck a cord with me and I would highly recommend it to anyone that has experienced the lose of child during pregancy.</div><div style="border: currentColor;"><br />
Even now as I'm writting this, tears are flowing as I realize how much God has brought us through in only 6 years of marraige. God has been so faithful to us. I know that no matter what is going on down here in my life, my babies are safe with Him...and their grandma in Heaven.</div>Hair Candyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11804910390926508446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558167329756339312.post-65458106393431959442011-08-17T21:29:00.002-05:002011-08-24T21:47:50.523-05:00Too much ribbon is a good thingGetting started in the bow business can be expensive if you try to buy all your ribbon up front. I started with just a few 100 yr bolts of ribbons and slowly added to my collection. I was a year or so into my ribbon building when I met a lady that had made bows for years. <br />
<br />
She was giving away...yes...giving away almost 100 bolts of ribbon. To a hair bow maker that's like winning the jackpot! I can home from her house with boxes and tubs full of ribbons. Solids, stripes, polka dots, holiday prints even some hardware and centers for bows. I was so blessed. Organizing all that ribbon was a chore. I'll post about that some other time:)<br />
<br />
Here's my first (sad) attempt at organizing ribbon.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPhg-ffUKGYtkS256e2YIfkyuTv2r7Z9GjMddX_vcPatFpgaLNCX5-j-J3Vkk83btKEDwPcMryJy6tWBnXhK-6bvtU2YFE7tSGgpNroznFao6BIFm_qUEM4jAAxgYcpvtko1AX4aycq-61/s1600/bow+room+006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" qaa="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPhg-ffUKGYtkS256e2YIfkyuTv2r7Z9GjMddX_vcPatFpgaLNCX5-j-J3Vkk83btKEDwPcMryJy6tWBnXhK-6bvtU2YFE7tSGgpNroznFao6BIFm_qUEM4jAAxgYcpvtko1AX4aycq-61/s320/bow+room+006.JPG" width="234" /></a></div><br />
In my business, if I can't offer a full size run in a color, I don't offer it. That means I need 4 different sizes of the same color ribbon. A lot of the ribbons that I got from my fellow bow maker had been discontinued and I couldn't get the other sizes I needed. I was left with bolts of ribbon that I couldn't offer to my wholesale clients. <br />
<br />
After 5 years I decided I needed to do something with them! That's where the "<a href="http://haircandybows.com/category_70/Discontinued-Colors.htm">Discontinued Colo</a>r" category on my website came into play. I have a few solid colors loaded on there right now with more to come. <br />
<br />
I marked them down so I can get rid of them quickly. Go shopping in that section and think Christmas and birthday presents!

I had <a href="http://www.thevintagepearl.com/blog/2008/07/gifts-for-eden/">sent hair accessories</a> to my friend Erin of <a href="http://www.thevintagepearl.com/blog/">The Vintage Pearl</a> when sweet Eden was born. She sent me the newborn picture and then a few months later she did some modeling for me. Sweet baby girl...that's now 3yrs!<br />

<br />
I've always enjoyed taking pictures. Even when I was little I loved taking pictures with my camera, you know, the kind that takes the 110 film cartridge and that fit easily in my My Little Pony purse! I went through so many of those little cameras!<br />
<br />
I'd like to think that my photo skills have improved a little over the years, but WOW do I still have a lot to learn. After being somewhat disappointed in the newborn pictures that we recently had taken, I decided I would take some of my own with my little point and shoot camera. I was more satisfied with my pictures than with the "professional" ones, though my still needs improvement.<br />
<br />
I came across a photography series on brown paper packages, one of my favorite blogs, and it's been very informative and fun to read:) Here's a link to the<a href="http://www.brownpaper--packages.com/2011/03/photography-with-lei-rogers.html"> first post</a> in the series.<br />

Here's 2 pictures from my photo session attempt. I love his little scrunchie head in the first one:) I just grabbed a white sheet and threw it on my bed, then covered his boppy with a white blanket and that was oh-so-impressive back drop. <br />
<br />
On my wish list is this camera, a Canon Rebel XTi and a few classes to go along with it! I'm still researching, but I've heard great things about this one.<br />

It was back to work today. I am a spa coordinator for an upscale spa & salon and if there was ever a job that suited me, this one is it! I've been there for 3 years now and still love it. I only work 3 days a week so I can't complain about that! <br />
<br />
Matt kept the baby today while I was at work. He has a few weeks left at his current management job then he'll be a full time work from home daddy! That makes going back to work for me so much easier! Looks like they had fun today:)<br />

We have such crazy schedules I forgot what it was like to cook breakfast for him! And while both my guys were still sleeping, I loved the quiet mornings with just me, my coffee and my Bible app on the iPad. I do have to say though, having to fix my hair everyday now stinks! I wore a hat or had a pony tail nearly everyday I was off!<br />
<br />
My sweet baby is 2 months old today.<br />
