our anniverseries...

it's almost april which means it's almost may! i am really tired and was thinking, now is it three years or two? wow... three years! anyway, does anyone know what they are doing for their anniversary? we are stiill watching our pennies tightly, so it's not going to be a getaway for us, sadly. truth be told my bday is a month before and i think i would rather do something more for that than the anni. and even that will be low key (read: cheap - probably an o's game). i thought maybe we could go over to the bakery where we got our cake and get some cupcakes in our wedding cake flavors and then take them to our wedding site and eat them and take a walk around the grounds. i love going back there. as long as we do something to mark the occasion it's fine with me. i don't want to let lack of dough be an excuse to do nothing for it.

Re: our anniverseries...

  • The weekend after our anniversary we are going to a friends wedding down south for 4 days so that will be when we will celebrate I guess.  I did email the place we got our cake to see how much a small cake would be and it was going to be $45... ekkk... so ill probably just get a $5 mini cake from Sams like I did last year and just stay home and order chinese or something lol.

  • Probably not a whole lot.  H is taking time off in June for my sister's open house and K's 1st birthday party.  Our actual anniversary is a Tuesday, so he'll be working and I'll have class.

     Depending on finances we may try to go out to a nice dinner and leave K with a sitter.  

  • don't know yet, good to start thinking about it tho.  I'd love to get a mini -cake made similiar to our wedding cake at a local baker.....i'm not a cake person, but damn was that good cake.

     I'd love to visit our wedding site and take a walk....LOL ~ I mean, vegas is fabulous this time of year.... ha, I wish, but doubt that we'll be doing that.  We'll be low key too I'm sure.

    Happy upcoming 3 years ladies ~ wow how time flies when you're having fun!!

  • Probably not a lot here either...We're celebrating my bday this weekend by going to Melting Pot and that's expensive. I'd love to go OOT but between DH's lack of time off and money being tight, I don't think it's going to happen. Last year I made a fancy dinner but maybe this year I'll order cupcakes from somewhere and DH can order pizza. Haha. :) Who knows?!

  • We'll probably do nothing and I'm fine with that. Exchange a card, kiss kiss, Happy Anniversary, on with our day!

  • I doubt we will do anything on our actual anniversary since it's during the week.  Plus, we're going to Florida the following week for vacation.  I would like to do the cake thing, but a friend of the family made our cake so I can't just call her up.  Maybe we can grab cupcakes or something like that.
  • Im not sure if Ill even have off for our actual anniversary. My brother gave us a gift cert to a very nice resutarnt in the city that we are saving for then. We are also supposed to go to an O's game that week.

    A friend of mine just celebrated her 15th anniversary with her husband, he bought her a mini coup. My DH laughed hysterically when I told him this. Huh?One can dream right?

  • I love that our anniversary usually is on memorial day weekend, or close so that we can go away if we want.  We haven't talked about it yet, but I'd love to do an overnight somewhere.  Didn't someone on here go to Hershey Park once?  I don't think that's that far away....maybe that would be fun...

    We stayed at a B&B not far from hershey when we got engaged. Then the next day we went through the World of Chocolate and had our pic taken on the ride LOL,

    I'm trying to get a bunch of coworkers to go to Hershey Park on May 26th or 27th.

  • We will go out to dinner but I don't know about anything else. We have talked about getting our rings "dipped" again. They are in desperate need.

    I do that at least once a year sometimes twice a year. Actually my ring is out right now. Hmmm wonder when I'm getting it back.

  • We probably won't do much. Hopefully I'm knocked up by then. I'm stumped on the gift thing though. Men's leather gifts are all to "nice" for my H. He doesn't like fancy shoes or belts, he has wallets, he doesn't want a journal or a travel kit.

    All I can think of is running shoes, but he has to buy those himself and I don't want to give him a giftcard. I may order him a pair of Jordans for basketball. Who knows.

    Me too!  I really want to come up with something good.

    i have a wonderful b&b i can recommend which is about 20 min from hershey. you can do the amish country thing too. we did that for our first anniversary. it was great.

  • I'm not really sure what we will do.  We have a friend visiting the weekend before so we probably won't do a whole lot.  Maybe make a nice dinner or go out to a nice dinner.  Nothing too special. 
  • Hmm normally in April we go to the French Qtr Fest in New Orleans and always go to our location to see it but doubt we'll go this year with Ava.

    And since we havet hat munchkin probably not a whole lot.

    Memorial weekend there is a country fest here that we're going to and we're getting babysitters so I won't be getting a babysitter for the weekend before and after.

    I will probably just cook a nice meal.

    I'm thinking golf shoes for H since those are leather although right now I don't want anything leather for myself so I don't know what I'd get.

    Maybe my hair done or something...geez I'm so cool to pick out my own gift haha

  • We're going to the Oregon Dunes over Memorial Day weekend, so I think we'll probably just go out for a nice dinner :)

  • I can't tell if its a good or bad thing that I couldn't remember when our anniversary was for a second. Or that I'm reading this post and I'm not sad at all that I will not be celebrating my 3 years with Andy.
  • No plans yet, but you guys are getting my brain stirring.

    I like the idea of getting a small cake or cupcakes in the wedding cake flavor.  Mentioned it to J and he liked that idea.  There are a couple of B&Bs in NOLA that I have wanted to visit so maybe we can swing that...?  I like to dream ya know... knowing that we will have a like 6-8wk old around that point.  Oh well, we could take him/her with us and leave Gabby with MIL for the night.  It's something, right?  lol

     

     

  • I will be heavily pregnant in the wonderful FL humidity by the time our anniversary rolls around, so no clue what we will do.  The weekend right before our anni is also Memorial Day weekend, so we're hoping to drive somewhere for a short getaway.  It's funny, DH and I were just discussing our anni this morning!
