oh dear, I sure hope that my MIL doesn't go to your church...she would definitely be fighting for this frame but it does give me a great idea for a personalized gift for me to give her for Christmas. And funny, my husband (her son!) went to ISU and nobody ever went to Iowa but she is the world's biggest Hawkeye fan. Jan

WHOOHOO! Go Hawks! As an alum of UofI, I passed through there on my way to a nephew's wedding last April (shortly after the tornado). Brought a tear to my eye to pass by the haunts of my youth (over 20 years ago since grad school!).
Thanks so much for sharing!!
All my best,
Nancy - in NY now!

GO HAWKS! I'm an alum from Iowa, too. In fact, my FIL just retired from teaching 50 years at U of I! My niece is a sophmore there now. I'll be heading back to IC in a couple of weeks to celebrate Christmas. I can see this adorable frame bringing in BIG BUCKS for your church! I LOVE IT!
