He's finally home! Jake had a blast in Alaska this September. He loves the wilderness and all the joys of hunting. He had wonderful hunters and luck with the big game. I'm so relieved he's home safe now. Picking him up from the airport is my favorite day of the whole year! It's 10x better than Christmas.
Once he was home we caught up all day and just relaxed. It's so nice to have him all to myself again. We had the whole weekend to be together and do whatever we wanted. We went out to dinner, to the new house, baby blessing. When he saw the progress on the house he was so excited. They finished the exterior while Jake was gone.

It was back to the grind Friday and Saturday. We picked up the tile and wood floor and got to work. Jake and I had the mud room and both bathrooms tiled quick. Jake worked on the fancy patterns in the shower and around the tub. It looks so amazing. I don't know how he figures out all those tricky pieces. I just cut the tiles for him and watched him do his magic.

I'm grateful to have such a wonderful husband. Jake is great at everything he does. He's so sweet to me and always makes sure I'm happy. I can always tell how much he loves me. Building this house has been very stressful at times and Jake just keeps us going. We're almost finished. Probably around 20 days or so we will be in! Crazy to think, but we're rounding up all final work. We are estimating our move in 3 weeks.
