A Weekend Wrap Up

L was off this weekend! He has every other weekend off, so the one's that he isn't working, I totally absorb! I try to do as much as I can with him because those are the rare days we are both off work.

Saturday we started by exploring more of our new town. We are from the Land of Lincoln, so there is a lot of historical places to visit. We both really like history too so it's fun for us. We started with the Old State Capitol Building.

It was kind of cool knowing Abe had been in that same exact spot. Seeing all this history in one room was amazing. This is the room we were in...

That is exactly, according to old seating charts, where Abe sat during meetings. Pretty cool huh? This is the same room thousands of people also came to pay their last respects to this amazing president after he was assassinated.

This is a picture of a replicated room of the real room pictured above it.  If that was confusing just try to read it slow haha. I wasn't sure how to phrase that.

Pretty cool though?

We then did a little stroll through downtown and found a few cute shops. We are waiting for a rainy day to go to the Lincoln Museum. We have heard so many awesome things about it so we can't wait to go!

Saturday we also went to our first "small group" meeting at our new church! We are pretty excited because everyone seems so down to earth & welcoming!

It's great to feel God answering our prayers.  We really are starting to feel more at home here. We are holding up our end of things by getting more out of our comfort zones to meet people but God has definitely open a few doors!

Sunday we went to church & relaxed.  Much needed too! My BIG Test for work is tomorrow so I did a little bit of studying too. I think I am ready for it so wish me Luck!

So, How did your weekend go??
