How do you celebrate your anniversary?
Maybe this is a bit premature, but I was thinking about it today. We try to take a trip in October every year, but for our anniversary last year we just ordered pizza and watched a scary movie marathon all day.

Re: How do you celebrate your anniversary?
Yeah, our first we ended up dressing up fancy and having dinner at home. It was nice though.
Hopefully we'll go somewhere this year. We're thinking about Leavenworth, that's where we had our first trip together.
It's not too premature, especially if you want to plan a trip or something.

We don't
After 31 years...we are all out of fun ideas!
Last year we had dinner and spent the night in the hotel where we spent our wedding night.
This year, we're thinking about driving up to Quebec for a long weekend, kind of recreating our honeymoon without the 8-hour plane ride

Last year we went on a trip in September that was for our anniversary (work was too busy for me to leave in October and we couldn't have used my free employee hotel nights where we went in November). On our actual anniversary we had BBQ at home from the company that catered out wedding.
This year our Israel trip was supposed to be for our birthdays and anniversary but we're trying to work out another trip using my employee hotel nights so we may end up going on another trip for our anniversary while I still have that perk at work.

Last year we went to dinner, but it was kind of crappy due to some drama on the part of my brother's ex-gf...I won't go into details because this is supposed to be a fun post!
This year? Hopefully a nice, quiet dinner out (we'll leave the little man with a sitter) but his b-day is 10 days after our anniversary, so we won't be doing anything extravagant since we have a party to throw, much like HiggyFan

Last year, we went to Chicago for the weekend (that's not too far-fetched for us, it's about a 5 hr. drive) to see friends who were running the marathon there. We stayed with friends, but for the night of our anniversary, we splurged for a hotel room downtown.
While there, DH gave me a present (even though we decided the trip and the hotel was each other's present). It was 2 tickets to see Bill Cosby a couple weeks later, which was fabulous, by the way.
Just last night, DH found out that Ben Folds is coming to town, to play with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra! We're fans anyway -- we were THIS close to using one of his songs as our first dance song at the wedding! -- so we got the tickets as an anniversary present (it's about 3 weeks after Oct. 10th, but whatever). Hopefully, this "tickets to an event" theme will continue!
HUGE BF Fan too, Kellie! I just saw him (again) in San Francisco- Best show so far, and I've seen several. I can only imagine how great he'll be with an orchestra!
I am so happy that you are getting away to Kauai again.
Ohmygosh! Nicole! Your siggy pic is gorgeous!!!!
We celebrate our anniversaries so boringly, apparently! You all do such fun stuff!
I should also add that DH and I are BIG BIG Dexter fans and the new season premieres the night before our actual anniversary...we decided that Showtime is helping us celebrate

That's how I feel!
Trips are great but I'm pretty sure after this year we'll be doing cake and BBQ for quite a while!
