What a treat it was to wake up to a 5AM phone call alerting us to the fact that there would be no school today due to the snowstorm!

We went back to bed for a couple hours not expecting the snow to be ‘as bad as they said it could be’, but we were all pleasantly surprised that we did have about four inches of wonderful, pack-able, playable snow!

After a spontaneous pancake-and-egg breakfast we bundled up and headed out!

A snowman and snow fort were our biggest priorities and I’m please to announce we accomplished both!

Check out our highlight video from today’s epic adventure:

I decided to set up my GoPro for my latest pen-turning adventure. This was the first time I’ve tried to film one of these ‘makes’, so there is much more to be desired in the future.

This pen is from an authentic Olive wood blank from Bethlehem and is absolutely gorgeous. Olive wood continues to be my favorite wood for turning because if it’s incredible deep grain patterns.

Watch this time lapse of last night’s pen-turning:

Here’s the finished-product all set up for her first photoshoot:

AiG just released a brand new promotional video for next week’s Creation vs. Evolution debate between Ken Ham and Bill Nye. I think this sums up exactly why it is this conversation is so important and why the press surrounding this debate is growing exponentially everyday.

The debate begins at 7PM ET on Tuesday, February 4th, and is scheduled to run until 9:30 ET. You can catch the whole thing LIVE via webcast at debatelive.org

If you’re unable to watch LIVE, you can pre-order a DVD on the Answers in Genesis web store.
