Hi Friends, I'm am the Navy Mom who makes ribbons and many other items you have heard about. The ribbons are to wear to PIR (and Meet and Greet). They are a great way to show how proud you are of your sailor and also a great way to recognize other members of N4M's. Most divisions order the Navy colored ribbons with gold or silver letters. They are not too frilly so they are suitable for men as well. The 800 divisions usually order black with gold letters. If you want ribbons make sure you order them at least a week before you leave for PIR so you get them on time. I can do overnight shipping but it is about $18.00 so it is best to order early. I take checks, money orders and PayPal. Send me a friend request and I will send you the info for ordering the ribbons. You can see sample pics of the ribbons and many of the other items I make here on my page or you can visit my facebook page and my website.Check out My Face Book page: Unique Memory Makers, be sure and "like" my page. You can also get to my facebook page through a link on my website.

Our Navy Journey:
I have a daughter who joined the Navy in April 2010, she had PIR in July, and was on a chartered flight to Pensacola. She was in the performing division at boot camp and was in the choir. She got engaged right after boot camp and got married during A-school. She is now finished with school and is an AO. Her husband left for boot camp 4 days after they got married and is now finished with school. They are currently based in VA. If you have any questions at all I am happy to help just let me know.

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP---- Sometime during the summer months or even before check out the group Navy for Mom's Holiday Project. Each year they choose a group of sailors to send Christmas stockings filled with goodies. You can get your friends, your church, your local schools to help and maybe next year we will have so many people helping that we can do more than one ship. How awesome would that be. It doesn't matter if you can send one box or 50. All is greatly appreciated. And it is so much fun. We made our own Christmas cards to send with the 15 stockings and goodie bags that our family did together. We had a great time doing it and you will too.

You may contact me here on N4M's by sending me a friend request or you can send me a message on my FaceBook page. You can also send me a private email message to uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com. I look forward to hearing from you and would be happy to make ribbons for you to wear to PIR and show support for your Sailor. Thanks so much :-)
I am here to support my
Son/Daughter
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I...
Needed to learn more about it
The Navy offers opportunities that...
Cherish every minute you have with your sailor. Expect things to not go as planned and be very flexible. Look forward to the next adventure your sailor will have..... I repeat Be Flexible.... Expect craziness and hope and pray for calmness. And One more thing.... Do Not try to drive 16 hours up and 18 hours back by your self in 3 days!!!!!! IT is CrAzy.... I recommend You FLY :)
Our Navy experience so far...
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

    Hello from windy and warm Southern Illinois!  Can you tell me how the ribbons are shipped please.  Anxiously awaiting their arrival!  Thanks!  Kim
  • kimcon55

    Thank you Lala - I am guardedly excited.  I will be very excited when I know my SR passed his final PFA! 
  • annamichael

    Lala - I read that your daughter went to Pensacola for A school and now she is based in VA? Norfolk? I'm from NC too. My SR will be going to Pensacola also when he graduates 4/22. Did your daughter request VA because it's close to NC or did she just get lucky? My SR says they get to make a "wish" list, but isn't sure if they even get looked at. Is there any way he can try to get VA?

     

    Thank you!

    Hello Lala,

    I just sent a message to your email address uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com about ribbons for PIR.  I totally understand if it's too late; don't even give it a second thought.  Thanks for all of the advice and help during this boot camp journey.  You are one of the ladies I couldn't have done without!

  • ProudMama (ship 2 div 937)

    Hi Lala,

    I saw that your daughter left for boot camp May 25 of last year.  My son leaves May 23 this year.  I wans wondering what date in July you daughter had her PIR.  My other son is getting married July 30th and I was hoping our sons PIR will not be the same weekend.
