Oh I wish I wish the Hogs would have won!



Well our first week in Omaha was great. We went to dinner on Friday night with a couple that is also traveling and are staying in Iowa at the same park. On Saturday morning Daniel and I got up to go to the farmers market we had heard so much about. It is on the Old Market area in Downtown Omaha. The area is filled with shops, restaurants, bars, and on Saturday mornings with vendors from all of the surrounding areas with fresh produce and such. We had so much fun shopping for the week. We went to lunch at a bar/grill called Froggy Toads. We ended up at a Brew Pup to watch the Hogs get whipped by the Horns. We were the only fans representing our teams but there were some Virginia Tech and Cornhusker fans cheering us on!! We had a great day just spending time together and rooting on our opposite teams. Everywhere we went people would say..I am sure your house is interesting with 2 totally different teams rooting against each other! If they only knew how many phone calls I got during the game from Daniel's family and friends to rub it in my face. Ben and I kept texting during the game..to keep our down the Horns spirit going. It didn't' work!



Sunday we went out for a hike at an area near where we are staying.We drove through a town called Missouri Valley that had these stuffed dummies all over it representing the businesses they were in front of. It was a little odd and I am going to find out what the meaning of those are. Here is a pic to follow of one in front of a NAPA Hardware. It was a relaxing day with nothing much to tell about just continued cool weather, a sighting of wild turkeys, and playing with the dogs!!
