***UPDATE*** If the giveaway reaches 1,000 entries, 2 people will win their service member a care package!
So, to get back to where I need and want to be, I have decided to offer a giveaway.
I've become known, among my friends and many people I don't know, for my crazy-fun care packages. I've been known to drop a pretty penny on making my care packages (ahem, Zombie box...). I have documented some of my favorites and blogged about them, but there are many I never even spoke of, and never snapped a photo of. If I could go back, I'd document them all.
One of my favorites, as well as my husband's division, was a Be a Kid again box. I didn't get one photo from the making of that box.
SO, I have decided to put together a giveaway and the winner's deployed service member will receive a Be a Kid Again box from me! :D
Shhh... don't tell my husband. He will be jealous.
Inside you will find fun little things that remind me of my childhood. No worries, if your service member is a male, He won't receive a barbie ;)
Everything in the box will be small, fun and likely have his or her division/ command/ troop.. whatever, playing with it too. I might include some snacks too ;)
And of course, I'll stick with my usual- Duct tape and Paint Pens to decorate. A Journey of a Navy Wife care package wouldn't be the same without it.
The Giveaway will end on August 31st at 1159AM Eastern time.

ReplyDeleteThis is amazing Christina!
ReplyDeleteThis is incredible of you to do :)
ReplyDeleteI am new to your blog. I look forward to all the care package ideas. We will be experiencing our first deployment in the not so distant future and I will be checking your blog for lots of care package ideas!
ReplyDeleteI love how real you are in your posts. You don't sugar coat deployments or the military life like a lot of blogs do.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog because I was looking for care package ideas. This is awesome. The best part was the zombie care package, I bet my husband would love one like that as well!
ReplyDeleteThe perspectives from other branch wives! (My husband is USMC, currently deployed.)
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty cool. Your care packages sound awesome. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is entertaining, informative and just all together wonderful! I love the fact that it is so down to earth and especially about my favorite branch of the Military, US Navy!! I am so happy to be a reader of your blog and a fan of your page and it is so awesome you are doing a giveaway. Fingers Crossed:)
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog for care package ideas. I hope that it is my lucky day and that I can win a care package for my deployed husband!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! As I have to admit this is my first time reading, I'd have to say this give away is my favorite thing on the blog so far. Or maybe it's a close 2nd to finding out about this blog! I'm a Recreation Therapist, so I always try to include a silly toy or game in my hubby's care packages. An entire box of fun would be great!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to meet this blog for the first time today! My favorite thing is having a new thing to keep my mind busy! I'm a Recreation Therapist, so I know how important fun is! I always try to send my Hubby some silly toy or game, but a whole box of fun would be great! Wonderful idea!
ReplyDeleteI came across this blog as I was looking for birthday care package ideas for my deployed husband. I currently live OCONUS and can't find the super cute tape you use but I am diligently looking. My favorite thing about The Journey Of A Navy Wife blog is that the post are so easy to relate to and direct.
