Sending all My Love

So today I sent the first care package out to Jack! Yeah for that. I had fun packing the box and then of course decorating the box. hehe. I find it entertaining to send packages. 
Today was somewhat uneventful. I went to the post office, then the library (I love that place), then I stopped at my mother-in-law's work. I had some boxes for her and her work has really really yummy food.
We started talking about care packages and what we should put in them. So that lead to some research for me. I spent an hour or so looking around online for lists and then taking what Jack would like and compiling our own list. I think it is a pretty good one too. It gives us lots of options. I figure I can pick up stuff when it is on sale and save it. 
Do you have any great care package ideas? Let me know!

Okay on to today's picture of the day:

Day 51

Hope everyone is having a good day!

I know you're moving soon but you might want to blur out your address. :)

As for packages, I just send stuff he likes like cashews/trail mix, tuna, random candy etc. I haven't sent much this deployment because he's had access to food this time. We have a subscription to the Marine Corps Times so periodically I send him like 5 or 6. And I send cards usually because I'm a cheeseball like that. :)
