Anne did my hair in a fancy braid this morning. Today we are going to see the sights. Abe Lincoln's house and then Lincoln's tomb.

Ammon, Cam, Anne, Lincoln and me in front of Abe Lincoln's house.
After the tour of Lincoln's house there was an Abe Lincoln actor outside in the back yard. He was the actor that played Lincoln in the movie they show in the visitors center. He did a really good job staying in character and it was fun talking to him because you got a feel of what Abe Lincoln was really like. Abe Lincoln had a good sense of humor. When we told him that we named our son after him he said "Oh I'm sorry". Humble and humorous like the real Lincoln.

After Lincoln's house we went to Lincoln's tomb. Our Lincoln was asleep in the car so Nick and I took his spot in front of the statue of Abraham Lincoln.
Lincoln's resting place. There was a very reverent feeling inside the tomb.
Nick wanted a pic by this cool Lincoln quote. Who can argue that religion is what our country is based on. Just because we have a separation of church and state doesn't mean that there should be no church in the state. What is the world coming to?
