Disney Care Package

I spend this past week at Disney World with my best friend. My one year anniversary was also this past week. I knew I had to do something special for my husband since he couldn't go to Disney with me, and since we were apart during our anniversary. I bought him TONS of souvenirs, and put together this very special care package.

I also had a daddy doll made, and carried it around the parks with me. I had pictures taken with it and had all the characters we met take pictures with it as well.

Here are a few of my favorite images with my "travel-sized-husband"
*Side note, I'm seriously considering doing a Disney Travel Post*











NOW, Onto the Actual Care Package!!

Most of the things in this package was from Goofy's candy store. I may or may not have spent $80 in that store alone... whoops.
Rock candy is my husband's absolute favorite, so of course I had to include it!

Colorful popcorn, or confetti popcorn

Sour gummies in the shape of Mickey

My husband is a huge tea drinker, so I thought this would be lots of fun. Alice in Wonderland Tea!
Flavors included are:
Blueberry
Lemon Honey Chamomile
Earl Grey
Pomegranate
Mango
Mad Tea Party Blend

Mickey Snack pack!
Includes:
Mickey shaped Pretzels
Mickey shaped goldfish
Mickey shaped gummies

Mickey shaped Rice Krispies
This was the only chocolate thing I got since I was so worried about the chocolate melting. I figured that since this is mainly the krispies, it would be okay though.

Goofy shaped cookie. We will see if this makes it in one piece...

Jaw breaker and a stick lollypop

They had air fresheners that smelled like the Dole Whip and the Turkey legs, but I figured he'd like this one best.
Also included is one of those expandable towels where you put it in water and BAM! 

This trip I got into pin trading. I'll explain the bears in a second, but mainly what the pin trading is is you buy pins, and then you can trade them with any cast member!

FREE buttons given to me by the concierge. 

So this is Duffy Bear. The story behind Duffy Bear is that when Mickey went on a trip without Minnie, Minnie gave him this bear. Mickey took pictures with the bear while on his trip. When Mickey returned, he showed the pictures to Minnie so she could experience the trip. This was pretty much exactly what I was doing with my "travel-sized-husband" so I became Duffy obsessed during this trip!

Mickey pen with the American flag pattern.

These little guys are called pieces of magic, I thought they'd be a fun thing to include.

Gotta include the hotel toiletries. 

I also spent a few days at Universal. I didn't get him much there that I am including in the package. I did get a few Pez though.

And a Minion because Minions are my absolute favorite!!

My friend bought these for my husband at Bubba Gumps/

I inculuded a stack of pictures from my trip. All the pictures are ones of me and my travel sized husband or my travel sized husband and a character.

This is the box decorated.

And filled with goodies!!

SpouseBox Update

I while back I posted about a subscription box called SpouseBox. It's a subscription box made by military spouses for military spouses. Most items included in the box are made by military spouses or veterans.

Today I received my May SpouseBox. I am in loooove!! The boxes go on sale around the 15th of each month. They sell out quick!! Like within 24 hours quick. They are $24.99 and then $5 for shipping. You have to buy them each month. Although, if you sign up for a subscription, you won't have to pay the shipping charge. And you won't have to worry about them selling out before you get a chance to order one.




Included in the box was a tote bag, a bracelet, a wooden photo frame, an accessory bag, a notebook, a quote print and a $20 off an R. Riveter bag.
I will definitely use the notebook, frame, and accessory bag. I'm not a big bracelet person, but it sure is cute! I also love the tote bag, but I'm not sure I'll use it either. I love the print, but I'm not sure how or where to display it. I was excited about the R. Riveter discount code, but then I looked on their website and saw their bags are around $250-$300. 

Overall, I love the box and cannot wait for the next one!!
