I was getting gas today, and the local Marine recruiter came over and said "I just had to meet the woman behind this super motivated vehicle", I just laughed and said "Yep, I'm pretty proud of my Hubby".

The few good men one is my favorite, and the bulldog magnet.. I like them all.

The girl that I babysit thinks I have a super power because I can spot a MC seal sticker from like 500 yds away. I see one and be like "MC Seal!"

Hahaha this is aweomse :-D Fi would die of embaressment if I put a single Army related sticker on my car, he might actually leave me if it was decked out as much as yours lol!

SamiJoeB

H was like "Well, at least people know you're taken", since we're not together.

LMFAO. omg.. sami.. keep going.. you're freakin' hilarious.
Yeah we don't do bumperstickers.. I have a "I my pilot" car magnet that I got for free on that one website that does free military stuff for spouses... but that was pretty much a huge joke that I did to embarrass fi was he was deployed.
I think he secretly liked it though

They say that we embarass them, but I'm pretty sure that the boys love it!!

I sent H a huge easter baset. I mean, it was legit. It was baby blue, and had the green plastic grass (the eco friendly kind made out of corn or something), and chocolate bunnies, eggs, all sorts of stuff placed in the basket and then I used shrink wrap to seal it all up and put a big blue bow on it. I always decorate the outside of the box too, and H says that it was really embarassing for him to open this big ass box and pull out an easter basket in front of all the other NCOs, but he really likes it. If I could make it so that he opened a box and glitter exploded out of it, I would.

I used to decorate the outside of Fi's care packages too!! How did you manage to shrink wrap an Easter basket.... I've only ever seen the flat food saver things that suck the air out of bags...

SamiJoeB

They make these like shrink wrap bags, that you put gift baskets inside and then you tie a ribbon or whatever around it and then you take a hairdryer and the bag shrinks around the basket. It even like contours around the stuff inside. I Love that stuff!!!

Haha, my FI hates all the moto stuff but I love it and I secretly think he likes that I support him so much, too! All I have on my car as of right now is a yellow ribbon that says "USMC" but I really want more! The bulldog is my favorite! So cute!

SamiJoeB

I love Moto stuff too!! But I HATE the "Toughest Job in the Corps is being a Marine Wife" or whatever crap. I know that even at my worst, I have it better than my H does. I seriously hate that stuff.

Aannddd 501st post!! I'm a "newb" no more!!

kara811

haha. You're a bronze now Sami, I wonder how many posts you would have had if you stuck with your other SN! 

I love the bulldog one too, very cute! I don't have any moto stuff, but we have Navy glasses, mugs, shirts, and sweatshirts! I've sent H an easter basket before too, he loved it and he said even though the other guys laughed they all wanted one too! haha

I have a bright blue My Husband is Serving in the Air Force that I got a that BX... Not sure if I am going to put it on my car yet. .....

DH worked with a guy who had to drive his wife's car every once in a while.  He said, "It's really embarassing driving around with 'I love my sailor' and 'my corpsman is sexy' on my car windows."

SamiJoeB

True!! H hates to drive my car because in addition to all the Moto Marine stuff, it has a vanity plate on the front that says "Bama Girl". Tehehe, I think it's only fair because I can't drive his car (it's a manual.. I've tried to learn, it's just not for me), so now he doesn't want to drive mine!!

Sammy0709

I should have thought of that.  DH's car is a manual that I don't know how to drive either.  I'll have to ask our friend where she got a "my corpsman is sexy" sticker lol.

calindi

Yeah, I don't like the "hardest job in the Marine Corps" sticker either!  FI stuck a big huge "UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS" sticker on my  back window once when I was drunk and told him that he could.  It's all bunched up, has dirt stuck under it since my window was dirty when he did it.  In short - it's not up to USMC standards!  Plus it's huge so it's not quite my style.

So I made FI go get a small emblem sticker last time I was here and a yellow ribbon magnet with a USMC emblem in the middle.   As soon as my Mom came to visit (for dress shopping), she stole my magnet!  And she put in another demand for another for my Dad's car!  So now that I'm back, I bought 2 more - one for my car and one for my Dad's.  I'm all about subtle, but if someone is knowledgable they'll easily recognize it.

SamiJoeB

Thats why I can spot USMC stuff from a mile away.. Not really.. but still.. I can always see them.
