The Aksarben Village area is a quaint, swanky area in Omaha. It's surrounded by vibrant, locally owned shops, a few chain joints, and the University of Omaha campus and trails. Parking is usually free. My favorite place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine is Spirit World, a locally owned wine and spirits retailer and gourmet cafe. Whether it's whiskey, wine, beer, or unique and hard to find spirits you are looking for, this is your place.

How about downloading an app called TAGG (Together A Greater Good) that donates 5% of your sales from over 80 stores you shop at. You could purchase a coupon book that gives discounts from local restaurants. Take time to stop by four locations in the Omaha area to drop off diapers, toys, toiletries, clothes, coats, food items. There are so many simple ways to help out and you just didn't realize it. If you have some time, you could help with preparing and/or serve food, hang up winter clothing for the poor and needy, play and/or read to children, fill trucks with diapers, or sort toys to be delivered.

There are plans to raise the fees when purchasing homes during the spring of 2014. A borrower with a 30 year fixed rate mortgage and a credit score of 735 with a 10% down payment will see their fees rise from approximately 0,75 to 2% of the loan amount.

Buyers with higher down payments will likely see an increase as well. Mortgage analysts predict the higher fees combined with rising interest rates could tighten mortgage credit in the new year, so don't wait.

We took our children to visit the Rosenblatt Park for the first time and it was great. With Rosenblatt Stadium being such a part of Omaha's history, I think many of us were a bit sad to see it go. But if you are on the way to the Henry Doorley Zoo, it is great to stop by and see this little park. There are seats from the stadium and the kids can run around the mini bases. The kids had a ball.
