Well, we made it


Well, we're here. We've been here for a while and we are finally getting all settled. The first few weeks here we were in an apartment. We got hit with Nebraska's biggest snow storm of the season and the kids were out of school for 2 days. Compared with Utah the snow wasn't all that bad. Then we found out that we had to be out of the apartment on a Saturday and our stuff wouldn't be arriving until the following Monday. It turns out it wasn't until Tuesday. We had some sleeping bags from some willing ward members and that was about it. At least we were in our house and not in a THIRD FLOOR apartment. We survived and were very excited to get all of our possessions delivered. Then the real work began. It has been almost a month and there are still boxes to be unpacked. I'm just glad the worst is behind me - selling the house, finding a house, arranging all the details. Everyone we have met here has been really nice. Spring has finally sprung and it is just beautiful outside. We have had one tornado warning (one touched down nearby), and several days of windy conditions, but I guess it comes with the territory. The kids like school and have made a lot of friends. All in all, this has been a good experience so far. That's it for now!
