This #Sundayhightee is coming in spicy! Make sure to stir in a helping of Jesus _ _ _ Tee by Faithful & Co.

The day Autumn starts kicks off a hectic season for our family. Besides school there's a plethora of events including birthdays, anniveraries, church events, and shows. We've been blessed this year to get into 5 events after a couple years of slowness. This also means spending any extra moment prepping product and displays.
