Calling all fashionistas!
Don’t miss the two baskets literally overflowing with gorgeous Vera

Do you fancy a spot of tea or a cup of joe? Then the fabulous basket full of delicious coffees, teas and accompanying treats (5th grade) is the one for you!
Are you feeling especially creative or productive? Then check out the It’s A Wrap and A Man’s
Fixin’s baskets for everything you could possibly need (7th grade!). If you need to wrap it, duct-tape it or put a ribbon on it, these are THE baskets for you
Do you need a vacation? Check out the San Diego Beach Vacation basket (woohoo 6th grade!) and take off for a getaway in a private home in sunny California, or perhaps look into the Red Neck Picnik basket for a fun staycation and kick back here in Big D on your checkered blanket with chicharrones and mountain dew (10th grade).
And for a different vacation of sorts, of course you should check out the Mom’s pampering basket filled with luxurious soaps, aromatherapy shower bursts and a bottle of cabernet (8th grade) - maybe you could relax and enjoy some downtime while the kids are kicking it up at the water park with the towels, goggles, disposable under water cameras, sunscreen and Hawaiian Falls season passes in the Hawaiian Summer basket (9th grade)
