Said this on the PIR page too but thanks for sharing. It does this momma's heart good to hear our boys are performing well together. Here's to the SR's of SheilaD, mamaof5, beckmcs and all of 350. Godspeed through these next two weeks for them (and for us) and especially Battlestations!

Good evening everyone, I wanted to let you know that all the ribbons for this DIV that have been paid for as of yesterday have all been shipped. I am still waiting on payments from several and as soon as those payments arrive I will ship your ribbons. There is still plenty of time to order and get them in time for PIR. If anyone else would like to order some ribbons to wear to PIR just click on my name and send me a friend request or send me a message to: uniquememorymakers@yahoo.com I will be sending more ribbons early next week as I receive the payments. You can see more pics on my page here on N4M's or on my facebook page. The link for it is below, just click on photos on the left side to see the pics and then send me a message on Navy for Moms or email me to get ordering information here is a link to it: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Unique-Memory-Makers/204119052936924?...

I read my son's letter to his girlfriend last week and he said 350 is doing so good that they might be rewarded with an extra phone call. Apparently they have won a lot of ribbons and were allowed to march alone. They were told that their last week they were going to get to take it easier since they have been doing so well. Soon we will be there!!! Yipee!!!!

I received a letter today and it said much of the same. A quote, "350 received scholastic, athletic, compartment and drill flags, a perfect 4/4". The cutest thing was that they are now allowed to sing marching songs as they march and that is a big deal. Sure wish I could see them!!!

that's so great to hear, beckmcs! I would love to be able to watch them march across the compound, singing! They probably don't think they're cute, though!! :) Did you download your parking pass yet?
-

Upon reflection maybe cute isn't the best word...how about adorable? Really though I will bet the marching songs are pretty rough!!! Swearing like a sailor is an apparently well earned expression...
We have not downloaded our pass yet. That is the hubby's job.

I have been finishing up the PIR ribbon orders for this group. Almost all those that have been paid for have already been mailed but I still have several orders that I have not received payment for. Hopefully the ones that were mailed will be here by tomorrow. If you forgot to make your payment please let me know and you can still make it with PayPal and I can have them in the mail by tomorrow morning. Your PIR is very close (I know you love hearing that) so if you want ribbons you have to act fast and let me know ASAP. Thanks, Lora
