Anyone doing a cotton anniversary gift?
We're not giving anniversary gifts this year because our Israel trip was for every gift for the year pretty much. 
BUT I was thinking of trying to make something inexpensive... I found an amazing quilt idea but I don't think I'll have enough time to finish... especially in secret. I just thought of doing a/some bed pillow(s) with wedding stats of some sort but I haven't sat with the idea long enough to come up with anything creative. Just wondering if anyone else was thinking of doing something with the traditional cotton gift.

Underpants
Simply because the word underpants is hilarious to me. Especially cotton underpants.
We got tickets to a show (Ben Folds with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra... can't wait!) which is what we did last year for our anniversary (we saw Bill Cosby live), so I hope the "event tickets" theme carries through for our anniversaries.
I could get DH a t-shirt... he loves funny t-shirts and that would fall under the category of cotton.
Love it!
MY BLOG!
I'm getting him an Adidas jacket he's had his eye on. I think there's some cotton in there!
Like Higgy, money is tight for us with our new house and Liam's birthday so we kept it small. Dinner out. DH bought me an iPad earlier in the year and that spread across most gift giving holidays for the year and we're getting new iPhones when the 5 comes out (I still have the 3 and can't even load FB on it anymore...can't wait for one that actually works!).
We had a ton of best buy reward dollars since we bought a new washer/dryer and refrigerator over the summer, so I let DH have them to buy a video game he wanted. And I surprised him by bringing home some macaroons from this neat little place near the Capitol.
