HELP with 5 Year Anniversary?

think about what means most to him in life. (besides you and the fam) is it cars, stereos, woodworking, hunting whatever. then look for a "event" going on in regards to that. Or simply plan a trip to the "capital" of what ever he enjoys... for cars maybe a museum of his favorite.

Whatever it is it would mean allot to him to share that with you. so many times men and women have their own hobbies and do not share them... that can be the beginning to growing apart, and that is never good. so share your time with him for what he enjoys then follow it up with something you enjoy, but maybe never get to do because of the kids. the opera? a Broadway play? whatever. you might even get lucky and they will both be out of town and you can make a long weekend out of it...

bottom line take it as a opportunity to share with each other what you are passionate about. maybe its even the same thing.

don't fall into the materialistic "gift" rut. its not about gifts its about celebrating the joining of two people into one. so work on becoming one.

On my 5th anniversary I had a three year old son and was 8 months pregnant. We would have enjoyed a dancing and a buzz too, but we ended out leaving our son with grandma and grandpa.

We took a ride down the coast and went to an amusement park for the day. It didn't cost to get in so we walked around and people watched. We played some carnival games and he won me a 4' Teddy Bear, which became our son's teddy bear. It stood out because I don't remember every anniversary, but that is one of them that I do remember. Do you like art galleries and good dinner? There are lots of good day things to do. Plays are good too.

5 yrs is wood for an anniversary.

What about a photo session of you all once the baby is born and put in a nice wooden photo frame.

A picnic in the woods or woodland walk? With messages of love tied around a few trees to act as a treasure hunt for your son and hubby.

go out to a romantic dinner with him - no kids - get a babysitter- and rent a nice hotel... spend some time together - go see a play/movie or something....

--- Alone time- just the 2 of you.

Get him a beer and let him watch the game in peace.

Then let him get some sleep.

Good luck

a card

cake

his favorite alcohol

balloons and flowers

cook his favorite meal

sex- if your up to it

a massage

bed and breakfast weekend and some antique shopping?

get guacamole and tortila and watch a football game with him
