Do something super cute. When my husband was deployed, I sent him a deck of cards with 52 reasons why I loved him. I would also suggest going to treat.com and making him a card. It’s personable & worth the 3$. I have made mike a ton! Now, make a jar of tickets that he can use when he gets him. Kind of like the coupon book but movie tickets you can get at Wal-Mart (I think it’s 900 for $4). I would also send some candy. I’ll find the cute ideas off Pinterest I have from when my husband was deployed and I’ll post them tmrw. Let me think on it some more and I hope this helps at the moment. I’ll ask my husband what he would have loved that I didn’t include and have him help.
Sorry I’ve been so MIA lately. I graduated college and then my husband & I moved across country in 2 days! Needless to say, I was exhausted and slammed with things; but I’m back to take requests, answer any questions, & be as helpful as I can be.

Yes. Just make sure you document it and wrap it in a plastic Baggie. It shouldn’t be a problem.
Working on his Christmas care package. I’ll send a picture once it’s complete
Tobacco is not allowed to be shipped overseas.
Okay so you write the address on the form but you don’t have to follow the directions. If you want an example, I put one on one of the drop down menus. Hope this helps. If not, let me know. I’m away from my laptop and I’ll get back to you when I can.
Yeah they seem small. I always used large flat rate boxes but I played Tetris a lot with the items and made everything I wanted to fit, fit.
Try a small flat rate! They’re amazing and you can fit a lot in them… think tetris! :)
