Quick Update!

Its been a few weeks, but its been a busy few weeks for me! I'm now working two jobs which keeps me quite busy ... my free time is spent hanging out with Jeremy, running errands and trying to continue to get to know Omaha. Oh, and trying to get tan at our apartment pool is a new activity I'm always trying to squeeze in :) Its been sunny and warm lately... just a preview of what is to come I'm sure! We had quite the thunderstorm Sunday night - I was at work - Jeremy sat on the porch and watched the rolling clouds of all different colors and constant slash of lightening.... luckily it was all over in about an hour! Tornados hit nearby Iowa though - scary! Well - we are off to the "world famous" Henry Doorly Zoo in downtown Omaha :) Pictures to follow!

Creighton Campus

We took a few minutes to walk around the campus of the school I will be attending starting in August... Its finals time there so it was pretty quiet, but seems nice!  

Here are the few pictures I took (I felt dorky enough taking these so thats why there is only 3)

Pretty water fountain on campus... See the hospital behind (very small)

On campus

Where I will be spending A LOT of time (the health sciences building)





More Omaha Livin'

Rosenblatt Stadium, where the College World Series games are played!

The gas station that saved our lives - kinda :)  We almost ran out of diesel while exploring and we found this one right at the last second!

About to have dinner out on our porch...

Dinner!  (beer, burgers, cous cous and salad)

Living in Omaha Now...

The weather here has been great most days... Sunny and warm but SO windy! We had no idea it was going to be this windy.  Jeremy is working just about every day, and I am still trying to find a job!  I have a couple interviews today so we'll see :)   

Still lots to put away... but here is the living room so far!
TV is in the corner... and that pile of stuff is in front of a gas fireplace :)

Again, still messy but here is our big kitchen!
