Everything Inside of the July Brave Crate!!!

Let me be honest- prioritizing time to make memories while my spouse is deployed can be a real struggle. Between the busyness of life during countdown and the stress of missing a loved one it can be tempting to let the deployment dies to fly by without seeking out new experiences. But these days are only happening once, and I know that part of the joy of our homecoming reunion will be sharing stories about the experiences we’ve had in this season of separation. So I plan the day trip, or vacation or girls night- and I remember each minute to share with the one I love later on.
This month the Brave Crate community kicks off our summer countdown by focusing on adventure and travel with our Flying Solo themed box. We’ve sent all of the essentials you need to inspire summer adventures big and small.
So go ahead- take that road trip, plan that destination weekend, or discover your city with a staycation! Whether you’re literally flying or just flying high on the adventure right where you are, I hope that everything inside this month’s Brave Crate inspires you to make this month’s deployment countdown truly count.
