Football and crafts...not two things you'd usually think of going together. But I'm here to tell you that they do. Well, at least they did yesterday. As I mentioned before in a previous post, I'm making homemade scarves and selling them to help with my fundraising. Last week Laurie and I made about 25 scarves, and by Wednesday it became pretty clear I was going to need a lot more, and fast! So, we decided to call in the reinforcements! Being from the south, I totally understand the importance of college football Saturdays, so we decided to combine two of our favorite things...football & crafts!
Yesterday, several girls from my Sunday school class came together to help me make scarves while we watched football. (Yes, we do actually watch football.) Here are a few pictures of the festivities:

First we got all the supplies organized by color.
Please note the football game already playing on the TV before we ever got started. |
 |
| Then we all worked together to make a variety of scarves in various colors. |
 |
| Katie especially enjoyed making the red/black/white ones! |
 |
| Look at that! Auburn and Alabama fans working together! |
 |
| Kacey even got some Samford Bulldogs scarves into the rotation. |
 |
| All-in-all, we ended up making 55 scarves, all the while cheering our teams on to win (well, most of them at least). |
We had a great time! Special thanks to Laurie, Kacey, Callie, Stacey, Kaylie, Blythe, Katie, & Kimsey for all their help! I am so thankful to have these wonderful ladies in my life! Not only are they praying for me as I move forward in this journey, but they were also excited to join in on the hands-on part of fundraising. With the way things are going, something tells me we'll be combining football and crafts again in the future!
