What To Put In A Father's Day Deployed Service Member Package

Father's Day is coming and I wanted to be sure I sent something for my husband Tom, who is deployed. I picked up a bunch of different things to send from a variety of stores. Here's what I bought. 





First off, I had to get a card an this one amused me because I love Baby Yoda AKA Grogu:




It's hot where he is, so I figured this fan would come in handy:





I love the Dollar Spot at Target and I found these patriotic towels he could use for the 4th of July:



I also found this in the dollar spot:





This bird just looked cool. I found her at Walmart and I figured she could bring a smile to my husband:




This was a cool sign that we picked up from Kohl's:




Another dollar spot find. This looked fun:




Finally, we're big fans of Rick & Morty, so I had to get this cup from Hot Topic:





We miss Tom a ton and am hoping he likes his package. The goal is to always bring a smile to his face and let him know we are thinking about him.

  13. That's such a lovely idea. The fan will come in really handy if they're located somewhere warms it's starting to heat up a bit where we are. The towel would come in really handy.
