Yeah, a REAL POST!
This weekend, my mom and I took a little trip to Springfield IL. It was the perfect way to celebrate president's day (yes, I know that's tomorrow and I'm a bit early), but yeah.
I had a great time while we were there and obviously took a TON of pictures. But I'll be sharing a small amount of those with you all and talking about them.

| The first thing we did when we got to Springfield was visit Lincoln's home. I thought this was super cool and it was really special to be somewhere Lincoln once lived. |

Here is Lincoln's famous writing desk. 
Me outside the house.
After that, we went to lunch and then to Lincoln's
tomb. It was WAY bigger than I thought it would be, and the
architecture inside was amazing.
Here is a photo of where he is buried. Across from him (behind me when
I took this photo) his wife and children are buried.
Me needing as much luck as I can get...
Here's a selfie of my mom and I inside the
capitol building waiting for the tour to start.
The picture couldn't really capture how amazing the architecture
here was, but this is the House of Representatives. Fun fact:
Legally Blonde 2 was filmed here! I thought that was pretty cool,
because I'm a big fan of those movies.
Here is the Senate. Another fun fact: Barack Obama started his
political career in this very room!
Last but not least, here's me outside trying to be a
model! LOL.

That's it! I hope you all enjoyed all the photos and thanks for reading!
Have a great 3 day weekend :)
