Having a kid is an even bigger excuse to act like one, which is why I was SO excited about this month's Cara Box! In case you don't know what a Cara Box is, head over to Wifessionals to read all about it :) This month's theme was CHILDHOOD.
I was paired up with Katy over at Tripping Down the Aisle and she is an absolute doll! She graduated college the same year I did, is married, and blogs about a variety of things. I've had a great time getting to know her this month and can't wait to continue our bloggy friendship :)
Here's what was in my box!
The coolest part?! She labeled everything with a reason as to why it reminded her of her childhood. Here's why I got what I did:
Tree bag: she used to climb trees at her grandparents house.Princess coloring book and crayons: Coloring is something she does to relieve stress (even now) and she has two books in her night stand!Candy Land bandaids: She has Barbie and Angry Birds in her medicine cabinet haha love these! Probably my favorite :) Pedicure kit and nail polish: Her mom and her always had monthly mani and pedi dates together. Candle: She is a fire bug! This candle smells AWESOME. Punch balloons: Her papa used to buy them for her at the beach to drive her parents nuts haha these were Bubba's favorite part of my Cara Box, for sure.Tigger Puzzle: She loves Tigger and puzzles and was a Tiger at Clemson University. Nerds: Her favorite candy... which apparently my husband liked too because they're gone and I didn't get any...Sign: Smile, Giggle, Be Silly. I LOVE THIS. Sitting as a reminder next to my bed.
Socks: She loved funky socks and these are perfect for my Christmas party this weekend!Lip Gloss: Her Aunt used to give her make-up all the time. Cookie cutter and sprinkles: She loves to bake and I can't wait to make these with my little family this year!
She put together such a thoughtful package and I absolutely loved everything. Her note was beautiful and I am so blessed to have "met" her.
Thanks again Katy, and thank you Kaitlyn for inventing this amazing event!
Can't wait until next month!!
