Happy Birthday Mr. President! - An Abe Lincoln Party


so I thought it would be fun to help Abe celebrate his big day, February 12 ...


We will be partying this weekend
with a little "lemon-ABE", in honor of his nickname...

 

 


a tribute to his famous Gettysburg Address...


an ode to the tales about him living in a log cabin...



and his years in The White House...


Lastly, a Birthday Cake on a bed of pennies...
(Lincoln side up!)



commemorated with a few of my favorite Lincoln quotes...



such a wise man, 
this one is the best...

Happy Birthday Mr. President!
