Gifts For Anniversaries

What To Buy My Wife - What To Buy My Husband

Record Your Anniversaries With Christmas Ornaments

My wife and I were digging through the decorations the other day as we were cleaning out the attic before cold weather sets in for good.  If you havn’t ever considered documenting your years of marriage with Christmas ornaments your probably not alone.  I never would have considered it except we received a ” Your First Christmas Together Ornament” as part of one of our wedding gifts.  Now 22 years later we have a box full of vintage Precious Moments Christmas ornamentseach celebrating another year together and ready to display for the world to see on our Christmas tree.   My wife spent almost the entire afternoon unwrapping each one carefully and trying to remember what we did that year for together for Christmas.  Not only was it interesting to look back at the past 22 years and how we spent our Christmas together but we also go to enjoy the memories of our children and how our family has grown over the year.  I know you might not think of a simple Christmas ornament as an anniversary gift but you might be suprised at the lifetime of enjoyment it can bring.

Anniversary Present Ideas - Dance Lessons

Have you ever taken any formal dance lessons or classes.  If  you like me it’s something you always thought about doing but never quite got around to doing it.  I was contimplating unique ideas for anniversary gifts and though hmm dance lessons.   My wife would go nuts if she came how opened an anniversary card and in it were gift certificates to take dance lessons at a local studio.  They type of lessons you decide to take are completely up to you.  Perhaps your spouse has always wanted to learn to do a proper waltz or maybe the tango.  If you didnt want to spring for the time and commitment of lessons you could get a nice video series on how to learn foxtrot basic steps and set aside 1 night a week to learn together for your anniversary.  Anniversary gifts as i’ve found over the years don’t need to be overly expensive.  Often times the anniversary gift with the most impact is one that comes from that heart that has required lots of thinking and much less dependance on the wallet.  Maybe you wouldn’t need to learn perhaps just taking your wife out for a night on the town dancing and dining makes more since as an anniversary gift in your situation.  Either way incoroprating dancing into your anniversary gift ideas is definately something you should consider.
