Just got Maker Kit w/ Arduino UNO - attempting to mix two beginner projects
hello all!
first off, i'm excited join crowd of arduino lovers , here. went , got arduino uno maker kit begin learning, , having fun.
quick background- when in highschool (the years ago that was, haha!
) built , wrote own little 2d video game; think zelda on gameboy. simple, blast do. wrote in java, , since then, that's last did code. i'm teaching myself c because seems used in embedded systems, , that's i'm interested in learning. software hardware real life applications coolest! 
anyways, here attempting.
i have done lot of basic tutorials on last few months, , after learning things, intrigued servo's , dc motors. learned through study how control servo's button, , learned how work little dc motors. fun!
trying learn how combine servo, button, , motor 1 application.
here's goal-
press & release button -> small motor turns on set amount of time -> servo turns 180 degrees -> motor turns on set amount of time -> servo turns 180 degrees beginning position - end cycle.
i think if learn how this, can build on it, , kinds of fun little projects.
i tried asking ole' professor google help, of things saw "hey, @ me press button , see servo turn" or "look, potentiometer turns servo."
chances wording queries incorrectly, google misunderstood me.
well, brain sponge, , forward hearing y'all!
thanks!

hi, welcome forum.
look servo.h library in learning section, go there.
do not power servo(s) arduino - provide separate power source.
do connect grounds together, need common reference point signal levels.
same dc motors - not connect directly arduino pins. use npn transistor or n-channel mosfet sink current thru motor; use an h-bridge if want 2 direction control.
