Omaha

We got all moved in and settling down. We finally got internet this morning and eventually got it all set up with wireless this afternoon. Now its time to tell you about all of the fun we've been having trying to figure out our new home.

We left Logan on Monday the 1st of August; Family, friends and neighbors helped us put all of our stuff into a HUGE moving truck. (Which is a funny story we ordered a 16' truck and a dolly to pull our car by the front wheels. We ended up getting a free upgrade to a 24' truck and a full car trailer. BLESSING it saved us money in the long run!) We (Chris' family, Chris, and I) headed out to Cheyenne to stay for the night. We met my parents at the Little America on the way. My parents, Chris and I stayed at the Air Force Base in Cheyenne and Chris' family stayed in town. Brianna was too young to stay in the housing on base so they were not able to stay there. 
We arrived at Village Green in Omaha on Tuesday afternoon and took a tour of our empty house before loading everything in. It was so hot and humid that all of the guys were hot and really sweaty. 

 We kind of just threw everything inside and decided to organize it later. Much later in some of the rooms.
 I didn't think we had so much stuff until  it was all inside.

 At least we got the bed set up though, someplace to rest. 
Everyone exhausted from the day. We couldn't have done it without them though.

After we got everything loaded into the house and had a good nights rest, my parents took us to set up a bank account for the HOA/rent. We did a little shopping, my dad helped us fix the dishwasher, (which is still in need of repair) and went to lunch. After lunch my parents had to leave to get back to WJ in time for the things that they needed to do, so we had to say goodbye. We could not have done ANY of this without them. They are the most generous people I know. Thanks again mom and dad.

It should be said that our house does not look as messy as it does in those photos above, but that's another post, as well as the adventures we had with Chris' family while they were here.
More to Come.
