I've been laid off and money is a little tight but I'd still like to do something special....I can't think of anything. Any creative ideas?

Maybe a heartfelt card with some of your reflections on the first year? In addition, can you make a delicious meal for the two of you or go to your favorite outdoor location and take a walk and spend some reflective time together? Do you have your frozen anniversary cake? That's always a built in fun activity...

I hope you find a great way to make it meaningful!

I'm a fan of making coupons you can trade in for things like a massage, a home made meal of his choice, maybe even a "chore" that he's responsible for but you know he loathes doing.

I once did a theme gift for my husband, I had one gift for each of the five senses. I made his favorite brownies for taste, a back massage for touch, a CD of his favorite band for sound, I think I got him some bodywash in a scent he likes for smell (fresh made baked goods can work for this too), and rent a movie or go to the theatre to cover sight. He loved it and it made for a really evening for both of us.

Happy anniversary!
