June Cara Box Reveal {Link Up}
I am so excited to see all of the Cara Boxes that were sent this month!

Today is the day for all of the lovely ladies who participated in this month's Cara Box Exchange to reveal their amazing boxes!
If you want to know more about the Cara Box Exchange, click on the tab at the top of my blog (:

June's theme was "Take Me To The Fair".
Everyone was supposed to get to know their partners and create a box containing items that related to things they love surrounding fairs and carnivals.

My beautiful partners were Kym & Kenzie.

Kym was such an amazing person to be paired with. She is another milspouse and her husband is in the Marines. I loved hearing about the small town fairs that come to her town each year and also about the fun things that her and her husband do together when they have free time. It was so nice to "meet" her and make a new friend! Head over to see what I sent her.

Kenzie and I have chatted here and there, but this month I felt so blessed to "really get to know her". She has the sweetest little miss:

I am sure if we were next door neighbors, her and Rilynn would end up being bff's.

Kenzie has a heart for the Lord and is so encouraging and uplifting. We exchanged emails throughout the month, sharing our thoughts and feelings on different things and just growing our friendship. I love that I can walk away from this month feeling as if I gained a great girlfriend who I know will be someone I will cherish in the months and years to come (:

Well, this past week I had my eye out for the box, but according to tracking, it was stuck in Denver...so I was SO surprised to find it actually sitting in my mailbox yesterday.

I snapped this quick picture so Kenzie could see it arrived, but this photo does not do this box justice.
I know I am pregnant and full of hormones, but I was literally on the verge of tears when I opened this box. Kenzie and I exchanged A LOT of information throughout the month, but it is always a surprise to see what your partner pulls from that information in order to create your box.

I told Kenzie that I love elephants.I also told her that I love doing tons of different activities with Ryan, love all sorts of food, etc....
But what Kenzie gathered was so precious to me.Right now, I am so utterly in love with our little baby that I cannot wait to meet.In her card she told me she would be praying for me and Ryan and for the baby. And in her box, she included the sweetest gifts for our little girl.
Kenzie had no idea, but I had tried to find a way to add one of these little guys to my baby registry...

If you don't know what this is, it's a Scentsy Buddy. It was too complicated to add through Amazon, so I decided I would wait and buy one from a fellow friend or blogger, since I know a lot of them sell Scentsy.
They are adorable stuffed animals that have an opening where you can insert a scent pouch. Then when your little one cuddles them they are comforted by the scent. Again, Kenzie had no idea how badly I have been wanting one of these for Rilynn...
Then I found this little guy.

She attached a little note saying that Paisley wanted to send Rilynn a "pack pack" of her own, since she loves hers so much.
As if I wasn't already so happy with these two thoughtful items, Kenzie included a movie I adore.

I haven't gotten to see this in so long and I never mentioned that in our conversations, but it goes perfectly with the theme and I am so excited to sit down and watch it again. And what movie night is complete without popcorn and peanuts to go along with the carnival theme?

And obviously, my box included animal crackers...

I have been craving them ever since I bought some to include in the box I sent Kym. They just remind me of being a kid (:
Kenzie blew me away with her box. I think I was just so touched that she thought of our little baby and included items for her. Even more than that, I am so grateful for her friendship and her prayers and she better believe she will be in my heart and prayers as well.
So what did you get in your box?!
Link up below and show off your amazing Fair themed boxes!!!

***Keep an eye out for the July Cara Box announcement later today! Due to many people being out of town for the 4th of July holiday, I realized I needed to get partners out to you before then, in case some ladies are away from their computer. You will have until tomorrow to sign up!
