Aruba, Jamaica, Oooh I Want To Take Ya

Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama ( that's me ;) ),
Key Largo, Montego, baby why don't we go
Jamaica. Off the Florida keys…there's a place called Kokomo.

Thank you Beach Boys for that awesome song.
Side note: I was obsessed with them when I was younger

With a tropical drink in our hands, falling in love all over again.. oh yea! Just listening to this song and thinking of the future when Matt gets home, gets me really excited and anxious to go on our long-needed vacation. It's really going to be paradise. We are still deciding on exactly where we want to go, but we're getting there!!
So with all this talk, I sent off his last care package a month ago (#16 to be exact) And can you guess what the theme was?  That's right -- Vacation!
 All the candy dealt with something tropical; tropical mike and ikes, swedish fish, tropical lemondheads, goldfish, lemonade, jalopeno pistachios, hawaiian fruit gum, tropical starburst, tropical lifesavers, take 5 (like take 5 days/break), mounds (because of the coconut).

Then I included leis, hula skirt, rubber turtles and fish, Chapstick, little umbrellas for drinks and stirrers, a beer cooler shaped as a hawaiian shirt, tiki shot glasses, ice cream shaped bubble container, a small world map stressor ball, flip flops, body soap and deodorant that had tropical places for the scent, some travel magazines.
 Pictures of us from the times we went to the beach together or to a nice resort.

Doesn't this box just make you want to go on a tropical vacation?



P.S. the picture of our header is from when Matt was at port in a country called Jordan. Isn't it gorgeous? Jordan is in between Saudi Arabia and Israel. He has been to two other countries since then.
