Since it is our anniversary I thought that I could use this as an opportunity to share ideas for anniversary gifts. An anniversary is a good time to get very personal gifts. I know that shopping for men is an extremely hard thing to do and trying to get them something personal without being overly mushy is even harder. Now I tend to be a little more mushy on our anniversary because I like to let my husband know exactly how I feel about him on our anniversary. I usually write a letter (handwritten on a piece of paper or more than one rare I know) to express how I feel and include it in his gift and on a few occasions he has been nice enough to reciprocate this. There are several different ways to let someone know you care about them. One way is to get them a basket filled with all of there favorite goodies; snacks, candies and drinks. This way you are showing them you have paid attention and know them. You could make a basket out of stuff you need for the house. One year my husband and I discussed how we needed new sheets for our bed so I bought some and put it in a basket with movie snacks and new movies so that we could have a movie day in bed with our new sheets. You could also make date night baskets to spend the evening together, alone and enjoy each other.
There are several ideas that you could use as gifts for your significant other. Just think about them, how you feel about them, what they would appreciate and what they would enjoy. Guys always remember that flowers and jewelry are typically a big hit along with a clean house, dinner and dishes done that she didn't have to do.
I thought that as an ending to this blog I would include a couple of pictures from our wedding to share with you.
Our wedding party...yes they are a little crazy but that is why we love them!
We were so in love on our wedding day and have been every day since.
One of the many kisses we have shared since we said I Do.
Now I am going to go enjoy my anniversary with my husband!
