Mine and DH’s wedding anniversary falls on Mothers day this year. DH and I talk all day on IM while he works (I’m a SAHM). So he starts a conversation.
DH: hon, pick from Rose, Peacock, Cranberry, Mauve or Chocolate
me: What for?
DH: just pick one. If it helps, they’re colors
ME: okay, rose.
a little while later he tells me to check my email. He had sent me an email with the Subject, “Happy Anniversary, Happy Mothers Day” the email itself was a forwarded confirmation email.
He Bought me THISbag!!!
Here’s what I do with mine: give him a list, and tell him just to pick something (that way it’s at least a surprise to you and you know it’s something you really want–unlike a new vacuum or something awful like that! )
with a Scarlett O’Hara sigh If only my DH would stop buying me diamonds & fancy cars as gifts & only give me knitting supplies instead… :roflhard: Yeah, riiiiight. I would LOVE it if my DH would give me a gift like that! Lucky you!
I usually keep a wish list on my computer that he can access. For specialty things, I’ll even specify the store, since I know that he will GO to an LYS… he just doesn’t know what to get. He’s not a gift cert. type of person, so I’ll never get one of those. Overall he’s pretty good… I just never seem to get anything for our anniversary… oh well.
That is so sweet! I love that bag. My hubby is one of thoes that doesn’t think about birthday or christmas presents untill last minute (that day) so I usually get flowers. Which are very pretty and I love flowers but I have a list
