Hey y'all! I'm Ashley, the wife to an Operation Enduring Freedom Combat Vet (Hooah!) & a master of the care package game. This blog is to help out anyone who may have questions about what to send, ideas, etc. Let me know if I can do anything to make y'alls carepackages a little easier & less stressful.

Care package tapped & alarm set to be there when the PO opens up. Of course the cp includes some last minute goodies :) I can’t wait for him to get this!

Finished care package :) Hopefully the last one in this separation.

Mike’s welcome home banner :) so soon y’all. Like barely 2 weeks :)

I ordered this for Mike MONTHS ago & it finally came in :) can’t wait to give it to him and have it dangle on his dog tags :)

Thought I’d share photos of how far I’ve come in the care packaging game as I’ve learned the ropes. Almost a year of making these things. 

Before I realized, containers don’t mean shit, the more the merrier, & I would love to have this blog & take photos. His nerf gun care packaged, I never photo graphed. :/ I’ve had to learn. Also, Mike has sent me a care package. Here’s the photo. 

Yep, a pt shirt, shorts, dog tag, afghan silk wrap, nametape. That shirt smelled like Afghan for weeks, no matter how many times I washed it. 

Now if I can go from this:

to this: 

plus some extras, I can surely guarantee you that you can do it. :)

Of course Mike’s surprise comes in AFTER I mail his last care package >_

Custom forms are my enemy but I’ve gotten so good they’re like a second nature

I had to pull his care package together just to try and tape it.

Last care package of this leave!
