Fall Cara Box Reveal

I've absolutely loved participating in the Cara Box swap; I've definitely made some amazing bloggy buddies since I first joined up in March!  This time around, Kaitlyn redesigned the Cara Box program to be a seasonal, 3 month friendship, and I am so happy she did!  I had so much time to get to know the two ladies I was paired with, and they were both SO amazing.  I know our blogging friendships will continue long after this month is over.

In September, I was paired to send Madi a box and receive one from Annalee [who you might already know from her guest post last week!].  What I loved about this 3-month cycle was getting to know so much about these ladies before it was time for the actual Cara Box.  Both of them are newlyweds, so their support in my wedding planning process was definitely the most valuable thing I took out of this fall swap.  

Here is what I received from Annalee:

 
A notebook, Lake Champlain dark chocolate salted caramel bar [MY NEW FAVORITE CANDY BAR EVER!!!], peppermint facial mask, Gatorade energy chews [in my favorite Gatorade color flavor Cool Blue], a hand-crafted wedding countdown frame, and a Victoria's Secret "Bride" robe

I have to say that opening this gift was the first time a Cara Box almost brought me to tears.  Everything was so personalized and fit me so well - even with my wedding colors and for my favorite hobbies.  Thank you so much, Annalee!

Here's a sneak peek of what I sent Madi - head over to her blog to see it all!!

What a sweet partner you had to send such a personalized box. This is why I keep coming back to the CaraBox swap... it's more than just swapping items. It's about getting to know others. I'm glad you had a great month. I like the new format too.
