Daddy Is Coming Home!!!

As exciting as the headline seems it's actually very bittersweet. Jake's dad, Britt, found out he has stage 4 lung cancer this week so the Marines are actually being really great and are gonna get Jake home for the holidays to be with his family. He'll be in Nebraska for about 2 weeks on leave and then he'll be back stationed here in North Carolina after that. They considered sending him back to Iraq after his leave in Nebraska, to finish up his tour, but thankfully they decided against that! It was starting to seem like March was never gonna get here. So anyways, as excited as we all are to have Jake home 3 months early we all just wish the circumstances were better.

Cruz and I will be coming to Nebraska on Monday and then Jake should get there Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!

Can you tell by the picture that Cruz and I are very excited for Jake to be home?:)
