What is a good gift idea to send my deployed husband for our 2 year Anniversary?

What is a unique or thoughfull gift idea to send my husband for our 2 year wedding anniversary? It is on July 1st. I want it to be special. He is in IRAQ.

What is a good gift idea to send my deployed husband for our 2 year Anniversary?
I think the ladies have said it best; send him a pillowcase from home with you perfme in it, a sexy something that you wear often, also with your favorite perfume, add to that a long letter describing how much you love him and how you yearn for his warm embrace (okay, I'm getting tacky now) :D.





Then send him pictures of you, the kids (if you have kids), family, home and things you all like to do together. That would bring him closer to home.





And please ignore the political comments; posting stupid stuff is not a crime yet. GOd bless your husband and you for being such a noble military wife.
Reply:what you should get for him would be a nice jacket or something that would remind him of you and how much you care and love him...
Reply:A hand written letter or card. Tell him everything he means to you and all the things you'll do to him when he gets back.





I wrote one like this for my husband the last time he deployed (he is currently too, but...) and he still has that card and remembers it more clearly than anything I've ever bought him.
Reply:a vote 4 democracts he will come home then
Reply:How about a monogramed blanket. You can get them at Things Remembered in the mall. Then he'll have something with yours and his initials on it to wrap around him like a hug.
Reply:You can put together a pocket calender (so he can easily carry it around with him) and put pictures of you with each month and if you know when he's suppose to come back you can do like a countdown on it.
Reply:A family portrait and a wallet sized one of you and the kids if any, and or a risque private photo and or photos with sentimental thoughts written on the back so he can carry it close to his heart.
Reply:While it's not for everyone, I know someone who got their girlfriend to come over and take photo's in their hubby's favorite nighty, and sent the picture to him. It's something shared between the two of you, and you know he'll appreciate the reminder of what he's coming back home to.





I'm not trying to be sick, it's just something special you can share with him, and him alone.
Reply:Heres what I did .... i sent my hubby a pillowcase from our bed with my perfume on it, then i took a pair of my lace panties (that he loved to see me in) and placed it inside the pillowcase with a love letter, we have been married over 15 years and I found that gifts from the heart mean more then gifts bought while he is deployed...place the pillowcase in a ziplock baggy to keep the smell strong
Reply:Its just a suggestion.....





Having served in both Iraq and Afghanistan theres one thing he will find really usefull. Send him a couple of bottles of Jack Daniels. You can trade JD for practicly anything you need. Its worth a hell of a lot out there.





Then get something special for him to open when he returns when you can be together. Sand tends to ruin anything nice, so sending him something as a gift out there probably won't survive too well.
Reply:A professional done sexy photo, a handkerchief with your (his) favorite perfume on it %26amp; a lock of your hair. Something he can see, touch, %26amp; smell, he'll love it.
Reply:I sent my husband a card I had made and some vidoe games. And I baked him brownies.

Reply:the best thing when he is deployed as i was is a cd or dvd video of all the things that he is missing while he is away don't know what he does but it may be the last he gets to see of you in the envent he does not make it back be sure to include lots of other family to
Reply:A doctor to certify that he is unfit for duty and should be sent home. That way he can once again be your man and not George W. Bush's man. Is that fraud? So was what, and who, sent him to Iraq. Turnabout is fair play.
