Cara Box Reveal and a Sweet Husband

Hey y'all! : )

I got my Cara Box on Saturday. 
If you are wondering what the heck a Cara Box is, go here and read about it! In a nutshell, it is a fun monthly package exchange with a theme.

I was hesitant about posting about my Cara Box because of several reasons. Then I realized that the purpose of this post is not to explain how you feel about your Cara Box, but just to reveal it!

This month the theme was things starting with the letter of your partners first name.
Whitney = W

Here are the things that came in my package:


1. A scarf
2. A cute 3D puppy card
3. A puzzle book
4. Homemade canvas
5. Scratch n Sniff stickers
6. Prank Soap
7. Red Sox Planner
8. Penguin Stickers

Garrett and I did a couple of the puzzles in the puzzle book and I'm excited to trick someone with the prank soap! If you want to see what I sent my other partner, Whitney, go here!  

Garrett felt bad that my package was so late and that my partner did not follow the theme whatsoever. He kept trying to tell if I was disappointed or not but I pretty much kept quiet about it because I didn't want to complain about it to him. I ended up taking a nap that evening and during my nap, he went to Target.

I woke up, showered, and then found this:

1. Walt Disney's The Parent Trap {Y'all, I LOVE this movie!}
2. "Woah! Are these 8 ponytail holders only $1!?" 
3. "Wowza! Look how sparkly that nail polish is!"
4. "Whatever you want!" 

How perfect is he? Yeah, I'm going to get mushy. He is SO perfect! Thoughtful, funny, and handsome? How did I get so lucky?? {G- THANK YOU for the sweet surprise, it definitely brightened my day and my week! I love you!}

I'm excited about April's Cara Box, I just hope the partners I get are equally as excited to participate!

  16. That is so cute of your husband! I quit doing swaps because I would go all out and put a lot of thought into it, only to get something that totally sucked. One time I did one that was all about getting to know the other person but you sent it to someone and you got something from someone else.. I put together this awesome box of stuff and I got.. a burlap bag. No joke! Love that he made it up to you though :)
