As for pressies, I can't really remember. I got her some flowers. I am original.
Don't see them as a big thing, personally. Maybe marriage anniversaries, but even then, I'll probably just expect a hug and some reminiscing.
Ive made a short video for him with a few memories of the past year. And was thinking of cooking. But present wise Im absolutely stuck!
We went for a meal at the same place we went for our first date, and then a walk along the river, again the same as we did on our first date. It was nice and we didn't have to come up with anything original!
As for a present, I bought a photo album and half filled it with photos of us during the year, and little comments by the photos. Then on the next page I wrote "Space for lots more happy memories..." I read that idea on this site years ago, and he really liked it, so now I'm passing it on again
*Goes out shopping tomurow*
So I can give you ideas on what we did.
I got him a pocket knife and a samuri sword, coz he's into that stuff, aswell as his ring that I got him for our 6monther engraved, a box of condoms, kama sutra foreplay cards, and choc body paint - yummy stuff - dark Belguim choc. mmm.
He got me a ring and my fav movie that came out as a PS2 game - as I also love PS2.
So when his parents were out we played
We went out to dinner too.
Kinda boring but thats what we did.
Another thing I did randomly, was - and maybe if you have a close r/ship with your parents - get them outta the house, cook her a 3 course meal, candles on the table and a bottle of wine, put arrows through the house to a room where you are waiting with presents, and it will be cute as.
I did this randomly one time when he had work till 9pm and his parents were out for the night. His reaction was so cute
Ooh I like the photo idea, but we dont have a lot of photos
I put together a photo with a few little red hearts with about 4 mini pics of the 2 of us together and got it framed for him.
we were 250 miles apart on our 1 year anniversary though
We bought each othera few gifts too, mainly things that we knew the other person liked rather than anything particularly special
I'm actually at the point of starting to consider what to do for our 2nd (even though it's a while away, because of the dates I'm paid I'll have to use my August money :rolleyes:) We did consider going Blackpool for a night, but if we'd have the money or transport (well, petrol in the transport) is beyond me
