I love this. The true meaning of love, is giving something thought and creativity; handmade, if you are lucky. I know people who use anniversaries (and probably birthdays or any other holiday) as an excuse for an expensive present. Ew.

6th anniversary: I got earrings and a nice dinner out at the place of my choosing. He got magnatiles, which he wanted. We had one set and he and DS (age 4) build these really elaborate structures and he wanted more.

Together or apart?

We kinda didn't do anything because we had a winter wedding so with the weather we kinda deferred it until one of us brings it up later when it's warmer out.

Probably dinner and a concert or movie. I have a designer cashmere scarf I got him that I'm dying to give him but it's light enough that he can use it later this spring.


together!

We follow the traditional guide and do something very small based on the tradition. We also try to do something for our house.. Last year we ordered a new couch/sectional (we desperately needed it). This year, we are thinking of re-doing the basement (basic paint and carpet not an overhaul or anything ridiculous).

We have a date night, dinner and a movie. No gifts.
