12 Days of Christmas Care Package

We made him a bunch of little notes and treats and wrapped them up so he could have something to open every day until Christmas. This was while he was in Afghanistan during his third deployment. We also included some homemade chex mix that his mom made. It is one of his childhood favorites.

Each gift was labeled with which day to open it.

"If kisses were snowflakes, we would send you a blizzard!"

The girls had fun putting on lipstick and leaving red kisses on the snowflakes.

 

Pictures of all of us.

A card and a long distance hug from Bella. (her handprints and ribbon)

"hand santa-tizer" (three pack of hand sanitizer)
