Omaha

Two weeks ago we flew to Omaha for a few days. We were nervous to fly with both boys, but only because we'd not done it yet. Turns out there was nothing to fear. Logan was such a big boy and watched movies on the computer and Aaron just ate, played, and slept. We are so blessed with easy kiddos. Getting through security was slightly more complicated that we were accustomed to, but probably because we're too cheap to check more bags.

The weather in Omaha was perfect! 60's and 70's during the day - a nice change to our never-ending 90's. Thursday we went to the Omaha zoo with Mimi and Grandpa. Friday we went to visit my college friend Leigh and her new twins (she now has FOUR kids under the age of 3 1/2!). That afternoon Bob and Andrew played in a golf tournament. On Saturday we headed to the Aksarben (Nebraska spelled backwards) Stock Show with cousins Olivia and Addison. This Texas girl got some funny looks in her open toed shoes. Of course if I'd know a stock show was in the plans I would have packed my boots.



It took a little convincing, but he finally chose to ride something other than the bench!

Talking to the peacock

This gorilla was great entertainment. Here he is putting wood chips on his back and walking around. They're so near human that I can't help but to wonder what they're thinking. Omaha has a great zoo, especially the primate exhibit.

Pesky little brother!
