Today was my day-off and we stayed lazy this morning.
While we were there, I received a text-message that our Wesleyan Denomination had just elected our first-ever female General Superintendent (Dr. JoAnne Lyon) at General Conference. Quite an historic moment – sad that I had to miss being there to see it LIVE.
After the Children’s Gallery we headed towards Milwaukee to spend a little time at two woodworking stores that I am quickly becoming fond of. Rockler and Woodcraft both provided a few needed items to help me continue my woodturning hobby. After we got Ella to bed tonight I headed out to the lathe and turned two more pens. My first pen was turned just a few days ago and mailed the next day to my Grandpa to whom I owe a great deal of gratitude for purchasing the lathe for me months ago! I didn’t even take a picture of that first-pen before sending it his way!
Tonight’s pens, however, (and one I made for Jess a day-or-two ago) are pictured here:
It would be cool to have a Stevan Sheets original pen.
What a cool place – Kayden would love it!
Hey Stevan, your mom-in-law would love a pen in her stocking at Christmas (or before:)Is it possible to make a flower vase out of wood that can be used with water?
I heard Dr. Joan Lyon speak at our church ladies retreat a few years ago. She will be an awesome General Superintendent!
That sweet Ella is getting cuter by the minute. Thank you for the pictures.
