This past weekend my family and I took a trip to Omaha Nebraska. My family was myself, Aaron, David, Callie and my mom. We left our house right after I got off work and we went straight to Omaha. It was fun on the way up there because we were laughing, telling stories and the kids were making bracelets. Once we got to the hotel we decided to go out for dinner. We chose a Chinese buffet that was maybe a 10 minute drive from the hotel. The Chinese buffet was called Grand China Buffet. We all enjoyed it and was so full after eating. We then went back to the hotel to get rest for the next day.

The next morning I was the first one up, which is surprising because usually Aaron is typically the first one up as his sleep schedule he is always up early for work. I woke up and started to get everything ready for the trip to the zoo. I think the kids were excited to get up as they didn’t fight to get up. We packed our bags and headed out. We did stop for breakfast at McDonald’s. We got to the zoo at 8:30 am which I am lucky we did because it was already pretty busy. We got our tickets and a scooter for my mom and then began our trip.

After the zoo we went back to to hotel so that the kids could go swimming for a bit before dinner. For dinner it was a belated birthday dinner for me because we wanted to have a special dinner this year. So we decided to go to dinner at La Mesa Mexican restaurant. This place was so delicious that I ended up trying to find out if there was one closer to home. Yes there is and I’m excited. Did my family embarrass me while at dinner? Yes they did. There is a video but I would rather not put that on here. We then called it a night and all went to bed.

The last day in Omaha, I decided to do a few fun things for the kids. We got to go see the Joslyn Castle and then walked the bridge to where the kids were on the state border.

The way home was peaceful and quiet as everyone was just so wore out from the walking over the 2 days. We can’t wait to see what our next trip will take us.
