Tour of Springfield, IL

We toured Lincoln's Home in Springfield, IL. The kids did the Junior Rangers Program there and earned badges.













Next we went to the Lincoln Linbrary and museum. The exhibits and shows were really well done. We were entertained all day here.


Max and Maddie dressed up as Abraham and Mary. Max worked really hard to perfect the half smile/half frown that Lincoln was famous for.






We also toured the Lincoln-Herndon Law Offices and the Old Capital Building.




We may have a future lawyer on our hands. Max started giving a speech when we were in the Representative Hall. He stuck his chin up, puffed his chest out and shouted, "What came first? The chicken...or the egg? You need an egg to make a chicken. You need a chicken to make an egg..."
