Hello Lovelies,
I
am so excited today…I am finally able to show you guys what I received this
month during my Cara box gift swamp! This was my first time doing anything like this! I debated after hearing a few negative things about people not sending out boxes, but after I thought about It..I decided that regardless if I received anything I was hell bent on making someone’s day. I was sort of nervous about the pairing, I mean who knows who I could have been matched up with. I must say that I did achieve the three objects of this whole program.

Make friends Receive Gifts Shared Encouragement
I was so thankful paired up with two lovely
women. They are so sweet and I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them.
The neatest thing about this entire thing was that I was paired up with two
sorority girls! I was hoping that they were part of my own sorority, but it
turns out that they were not. Regardless, we all are Greek and share similar
experiences and it was genuinely nice to get to know them. The thing that we
all shared above all was our belief in God.
Amy blog over at Marching through Life. She is an absolute sweetheart! I have enjoyed every minute of getting to know her. I must say that when I am feeling gloomy and need a spiritual pick me up, I hop on over to her blog. She has the most inspirational posts. What I thought was super neat is that she grew up in Georgia, which I did too. She is simply lovely and I hope that you all stop by her blog and check her out! If you want to see what I sent Amy this month check it out here!
Meet Jessica:She sent me a Cara box this month!
Jessica blogs over at Preppin’ Postgrad! She is a Southern Girl that grew up in both Texas and South Carolina. She is also is apparently not a Duke fan…read this
“I graduated from the University of North Carolina in May 2012 and am very fortunate to work for the university I fell in love with. I will always think of Chapel Hill as a little piece of heaven, shout GO TO HELL DUKE, and recognize that God is a Tar Heel fan after all since the sky is Carolina blue.”
She has an adorable blog and quite frankly looks just as adorable as her blog! She is an active reader, and overall I have found that we have lots in common. She also has the neatest programs on her blog such as 30 in 30 and 13 in 2013. You guys seriously need to check her out!
So now one to what Jessica sent me in my Cara box this month! I must say that I was super impressed with what I received. I know that I talked with Amy about how difficult this theme was, but it did force us to be creative. The theme was “Go Green,” which is not really my expertise..but I made it work! When I opened my box I kept digging and digging! There was so much stuff in the box!
What I received in my April Cara box:
3 Adorable Lunch Bags
Reusable Sandwich case in my favorite color!
Chevron Print bag
2 Burt’s Bees Lip Balms
Two Grow flower boxes
10 (I think) ties
2 Green Nail polishes
Card
I think that I can’t just pick one thing that I love the most. If I had to pick I would have to say the lunch bags. Jessica seriously read my mind on these, because I have been recently been looking for some super cute one..and well now I have them!I am so excited to try everything, I seriously was like a kid on Christmas!
I would like to thank both Amy and Jessica for being so sweet and making my first round of Cara box’s a huge success. I can’t wait to get to know them better and develop and deeper blog friendship with them!
