I signed up to be part of a Cara Box Exchange with other bloggers through the blog Wifessionals. My sister had done it a few months earlier and thought I should give it a try - I'm glad she told me to! I got paired up with two bloggers- one I send a Cara Box to and one I get a Cara Box from. For the first month or so, you get to know them through email exchanges and reading their blogs. Then, you start buying them gifts :) The theme was "Fall" so it was pretty open. Ami, her blog is Here, was my partner who was buying for me. We seemed to have lots of similar interests so I was eager to get my present in the mail. Plus, who doesn't like to get presents in the mail?
When I opened the box, goodies of all kinds were waiting for me! She bought me some of my favorite things and didn't even knot it. Right away, I opened up the lip balm :) I am hardly ever an arm's reach away from something for my lips!
She put in two of her own recipe cards. I thought that was a really neat idea! We will be trying out some new foods in the next few weeks :)
She added some fragrance bars! The one on the left smells good enough to eat, and the one on the right takes me back just a few short months to when we were laying on the deck of our overwater bungalow in Bora Bora!
I got some fun nail polish that I broke into right away:)
There was also a fun scarf that I cannot wait to wear.
At the bottom of all the goodies was a super cute lunch pale from Thirty-One!! I love their bags and am super excited to add a new one to my collection :)
Ami was even sweet enough to add something inside for Jack, and it couldn't have been more perfect! This kid is a Mickey fanatic, and I know the picture doesn't show it, but his eyes lit up when I let him play with it.
I got A LOT of neat things, and she told me she forgot to add a few items that will be coming in another box soon. I can't wait to see what other goodies await!
