Deployment Box #3 - Anniversary Box

Another year where my husband will be gone for our wedding anniversary. So using my new toy (A Silhouette Cameo!!) I was able to decorate a fun box. It's not going to be as themed as the previous boxes, rather it's just going to be filled with some goodies that I know he will enjoy.

Included in the box is:

• Redvines
• Green Apple drink mixes
• Caramel Corn
• Tuna pouches
• Dried banana and pineapple
• Protein Bars
• Gum
• Corn nuts 

Deployment Box #2 - Going Nuts!

I just finished up box number two. Need to finish filling out the customs form but then this one will be on its way. This one I felt like I had a lot more to put into it, a little bit of an easier theme I guess. This one was all nut themed. I had a lot of fun cutting out my little squirrel and acorns. I glued them all on but then also used packing tape over them because I know that this box has a long way to travel and they usually arrive in pretty sad condition.

Items included in this box were:

• Corn nuts (not really a nut but I was it was funny that it kinda fit with it)
• Peanut butter
• Roasted Peanuts
• Cashews
• Nature Valley bars (Almond and Peanut butter)
• Pistachios (Not pictured)
• Oatmeal (Berry and pecan, also not pictured)

Well box number 2 is done, I wish that the faster I put these together the faster time would move so he could come home soon, but I will just have to keep busy and eventually it will be homecoming. 

Deployment Box #1 Fiesta Time!

It is that time again where my husband has deployed. We are very thankful that he is in a fairly safe place and has access to the internet. Although he isn't stranded in a desert I still like to send him special boxes filled with goodies just to make our time apart a bit easier. So the first deployment box I put together was Mexican themed.

So I covered the flaps in yellow then cut out a sombrero from scrapbook paper as well as letters for Fiesta Time. The bottom flap I leave blank to write a note.
I filled the box with some themed items:

• Crystal Lite (I did appletini cause my husband likes green apple, but margarita would be a good themed item)
• Old El Paso Tortilla Stuffers
• Old El Paso Mexican Rice
• Old El Paso Flour Tortillas.
• Can of pinto beans (not pictured)
• Queso dip (not pictured)
• Tortilla chips (not pictured)
