Wedding Anniversary - I am so in trouble!

Started by Kelli , author of Life in a Barn 9/28/2010 10:26:03 AM

Guys, I have totally forgotten to get my husband a gift.  (I forgot it was so soon). I literally have 3 days till then.  Do you guys have any fast, cheap, good ideas?  It is my fourth wedding anniversary this year.  I chalk up being 8 1/2 months pregnant to forgetting this year.  I know so sad.

I guess it depends on what kinds of things he likes. Maybe a DVD collection of his favorite TV show? A new watch? Tickets to a sporting event?

My husband and I go by what is the traditional and untraditional gifts of each year. So let's take a look at number four...http://www.happy-anniversary.com/year-of-marriage/index.html

The fun is trying to get creative with the choices that are given. On our second my husband bought me a pair of my favorite pjs..and we plant the flower of every year too.

And if it's too much work, maybe try it for next year. I like what Lis suggested.


Picnic dinner out somewhere?

Photo album of you two (a number of places can do these in one hour, including WalMart),

something special from the baby?

Line family (if possible) up for 2 hours when baby is a couple of months old, like an IOU for mini-date-night?

I like all of the suggestions!  Thank you so much.  Now I guess I just need to do some research. 

I think I might combine a few of these.  Like the picnic dinner( especially with the weather cooling now).  Perfect for it.

And, perhaps something small from the traditional list.

I got him a small video game, for his DS, which he has been wanting for a while, but I wanted to do something more interesting and fun too.  Thanks to you guys, I will! 

Thanks all!


Good luck with your gifts and congratulations on your anniversary! :)

Let us know how it goes and Happy early Anniversary!


My hubby has never been one to celebrate special occasions, so after 25 years I have slowly moved to his side.

We try to go to dinner for our anniversary and give each other a card. For our 25th we did go out of town and I surprised him with a Christmas/25th Anniversary gift (our anniversary is Jan 5) by having his father's recliner reupholstered for him. Even my MIL liked it!

Enjoy your time together and I hope you have a wonderful anniversary!
