What's in Omaha?!?!

 It was so fun exploring a little more in Omaha and setting up our house. There is a botanical garden like 500 feet from our townhouse. We get in free because the property where we live was sold to the gardens. I went while Matt was studying. It was very hard getting used to Matt being gone all day and me alone at home looking for a job. It was fun being a wife staying at home though:). There is a little train set-up at the gardens. It is really cool. Trains are really big in Omaha. It is one of the biggest train depot throughout the U.S. So they did this display that winds through trees.



 
 Tons of birds
 Beautiful butterflies

 cool sculptures

 courtyard
 Being a stay at home wife with the house cleaned and ready, so fun!
 Matt is cool he got new glasses, now he looks like a Law student


 I found a FREE piano on craigslist. It came with all this piano music and books and metronome. Perfect condition too. I Love it and finally have room for a piano!!


 Weird sculpture thing in Council Bluffs, IA

 Old church on Creighton campus, there are old churches EVERYWHERE! Tons of different churches too!
 Trying out all the yummy food!
 Kenflick Park is right by the botanical Lauretzen Gardens. It has trains on display. We loved this info plaque because it talks about Ogden, UT and the connection of the railroad from East to West.





 View from the park and by our house. There is a bridge over the Missouri River





 A squirrel on Creighton's Campus, we love the squirrels here! Fat, long and some are black!
 We went with some friends to Old Market downtown and walked around. There are tons of shops that have tons and tons of thrift items. It's very fun to look around. We went down to the basement and saw this creepy guy. No one was down there either, so we went straight upstairs too scary for us:).
 We found a huge sword and some Machete's!! You can find anything in these stores
 Old creepy guy just hanging out

 Big "O" guy that moves his head

We also got to slide down two slides on cardboard. You go really fast and is a popular place at night! Here is a video of a friend going on it. 
 We loved that there were lots of turkeys here just walking around


 Matt also had to go golfing it was a beautiful morning and his golf ball got stuck in the golf cart!
