Ohmigosh, ya'll. This was slated to be my last month of Bock Boxes, but, spoiler alert, I've been enjoying them so much, I had to sign up for six more months! 

If you haven't heard of the Bock Box, allow me to fill you in! The Bock Box is a subscription service of all sorts of personalized, often monogrammed, goodies just for you! Courtney Bock Designs offers a variety of items for the home, ladies, babies, and more! When you sign up, you'll fill out a questionnaire that asks you for your sizes, interests, hobbies, and favorite colors. From there, surprises start showing up monthly (3, 6, or 12 month subscriptions are available!)!

Again this month, my box knocked it out of the park! This month, I got the absolutely GORGEOUS Monogram Envelope Clutch (retails $34) in black! This clutch is amazing (so amazing, in fact, that I can't believe it's only $34!)! I love that it's black because it's versatile enough to take me through all seasons, and I especially love the little gold chain inside that I can clip on if I don't want to carry it! It's going to make it's debut on Friday at our 10 year Saint Mary's reunion, and I definitely see myself carrying it to weddings, parties, and more over the next several months! 

I love designer bags as much as the next girl, but having one with my initials on it makes it even more special. I can't wait to use this! 

One of my favorite parts of getting my Bock Box is I know that my friends who also subscribe have received theirs too! This month, my mom got the adorable Jumbo Initial Tea Towel set, my friend Andrea received a personalized Desk Note Pad for her family, and my friend and college roommate Teresa received the AWESOME French Cross Post Earrings! Seriously, such a great month of items for all of us -- and EVERY month is like this with the Bock Box! 

Super excited that I have six more months of awesome on the way! If you're looking for a fabulous treat for yourself or someone else, I absolutely recommend Courtney Bock Designs!

A tank-tastic month: May's Bock Box Review

It has come to my attention that I might be obsessed with subscription boxes. But I love them so much, and this month's Bock Box is no exception! 

If you haven't heard of the Bock Box, let me fill you in! Bock Box is a subscription service of all sorts of personalized, often monogrammed, goodies just for you! Courtney Bock Designs offers a variety of items for home, lady, baby, and more! When you sign up, you'll fill out a questionnaire that asks you for your sizes, interests, hobbies, and favorite colors. From there, surprises start showing up monthly (3, 6, or 12 month subscriptions are available!). I currently have one more month coming my way, and then I have to decide to renew or not! 

This month was tank-tastic! I received the Be You, Bravely tank top (retail value $24). The cotton is SO soft, and it will be perfect for workouts, casual days at home with Henry, or layering under something heavier. 

The best part about the Bock Box is everything is chosen specifically for you! This month, my friend Andrea got the gorgeous Charlotte bracelet and earrings in pink (a $36 value!)! Each month brings different and awesome gifts!

Interested in getting your own Bock Box? Head over here and choose the option that's best for you! Then make sure to come back here and tell me what you were sent -- I just love knowing what others get! 

It's my birthday, but you get the gifts! Giveaways from Sparkle Box and CBD!

This week has been so wonderful. Henry, Dan, and I have been spending lots of time with our families and friends, and that makes me incredibly happy. We are so blessed to have so many amazing people in our lives. And it's been such a needed reminder that if you're surrounded by the people you love, and if you have your health and needs met, you really, truly, have it all.

I bring all of this up because this week marks my 32nd birthday. I honestly can't believe it's time for another birthday, as part of my brain is still back in February (sleep deprivation, maybe?). This year, I can't help but feel extra blessed that I get to celebrate 32 with my loving husband and our adorable son. It makes it that much sweeter. 

So when I started thinking about what I wanted for my birthday, the answer was: nothing. I know that seems ridiculous, but I truly have everything I want right now. I have the best family and friends in the world. We have a comfortable roof over our heads. We have our health. And we already have FAR too much stuff. Therefore, this year called for something different. 

This year, I'm taking my birthday as a chance to give gifts to others! 

Yep, you read that right! I'm giving away a few gifts just because it makes me happy! I donated to a really worthy local charity, and now, I'm passing some more gifts on to YOU! 

Gift #1: A Sparkle Box for you (or for mom!) (value $19)
I've blogged a bit about Sparkle Box before, but let me tell you about it, just in case you missed it! Sparkle Box is a fantastic, brand spanking new jewelry subscription box service. For only $19 a month, you get 2-3 pieces of jewelry hand-picked and mailed directly to you! You get to choose your own signature style, so it doesn't matter if you love trendy, simple, quirky, or edgy jewelry, there's a style for you! There's even an AWESOME Mother's Day box you can pick up for a limited time (Hint hint, that's coming up here, people!). 

You can also read more about Sparkle Box here and see my most recent Sparkle Box review here!

If you win the Sparkle Box present, you'll choose your style (or a style for mom if you want to gift the gift!), and you'll receive some jewelry you're sure to love! 

Gift #2: A gift certificate from Courtney Bock Designs (value $20)

My love affair with Courtney Bock Designs is ongoing and never ending. Is there anything better than monogrammed, personalized gifts? I love the lines CBD carries (hellllo, Kate Spade!), and I love how wonderful they are to work with (I'm a brand rep for them, and it's been a dream!). 

If you win the CBD gift, you'll take home a $20 gift certificate to spend on whatever you'd like! My current favorites are the Monogram Acrylic Necklace ($19.95), the Belles do it better coffee mug ($28) -- (SMC chicks, check it out!), the Barre and Brunch tank ($22), and the Gold Monogram Tote ($18) -- (SO Gatsby!). So many great choices on the site!
