Alright so I shot in RAW for the very first time, now what?

His earlier threads have asked essentially the same thing, only now he has the Raw files, and needs help in understanding what to do next.
 
To answer the OP would require writing a couple of books.
Fortunately, someone has done that:
The Digital Negative: Raw Image Processing in Lightroom, Camera Raw, and Photoshop (2nd Edition)
Real World Image Sharpening with Adobe Photoshop, Camera Raw, and Lightroom (2nd Edition)

If the OP is also interested in having prints made of his images;
The Digital Print: Preparing Images in Lightroom and Photoshop for Printing

Hopefully the OP is also aware of ETTR - Expose To The Right.
