Go for vacation
It such a long time you both have never gone for a vacation.  Take a break.  Apply for a
week’s leave.  Sit down together and discuss where to go.  But, please, no fighting over
the decision of the place to go.  Think of a place that you both like to go.  List down of
all the places in a piece of paper and don’t forget about the budget.  Going for a
vacation is not meant to be broke after coming back from the vacation.  The kids?   
What about the kids?  There are two solutions.  Whether you leave them behind with
someone you trust, such as your parents or your in-laws or you take them along.  But,
beware.  You both might be very tired after the vacation with the kids.  

Do fun activities together
Is there an activity that you both love doing it together but don’t have the time?  
Activity such as, cycling, hiking, camping, riding on a hot air balloon,
boating, riding
horses or even
going to movie together.  If yes, this is the time.  Take a leave and off
you go, please.  You will realize there is so much of missing moments between both of
you.   

Dine out or specially cook
If you both can’t take leave, celebrate it romantically with candle light dinner either at
your
favorite restaurant or at home.  If you are to celebrate at home, cook something
special.  Talking about cooking something special, wife do you still remember what was
your 1st cooking after you got married?  An over cooked meal with a burned fish?  
Perhaps you can still cook the dish but give it a slight better cooking this time.  Ask
your husband, “Do you still remember my 1st cooking for you?”  Let’s hear his answer
then.  The situation might also be vice versa, where the husband was the one who
cooked 1st time after got married.  

If you choose to have outside dinner, I would suggest that you both go to the first
dining restaurant that you went for your dating last time.  It will bring back nostalgia
to both of you.           

Drop a special note
On the day of the anniversary, husband, leave a note on the dressing table or on the
bath room mirror or stick it at the refrigerator before you go to work.  A simple note
saying that, “Honey, I love you.  Thanks for being me after all these years.”   Well, you
can compose a better love notes than I am.  If you find hard to compose one, get a
book on love notes from amazon.com or barnesandnobles.com.  Or, take a lyric from a
love song that you both enjoy listening.

Traditional gifts
Husband, if you are planning to give a traditional gift for your wife such as flowers,
please put an add-on to it.  You can combine flowers with chocolate; flowers with
keepsake box; flowers with ticket to movie show; flowers with aromatherapy massage
oil or flowers with jewelry.  

Wife, if you are planning to give a gift for your husband, perhaps you can get him a set
of toiletries of his favorite designer fragrances, a new shirt with his favorite color,
tickets to his favorite sports event or gifts that are related to his hobby.  Not another
socks, ties, undergarment please.

Seeds of Love
Husband/wife, your spouse enjoys gardening.  Choose few packets of vegetables seeds
or flower seeds of her/his favorite selection and wrap it in a pot where the plant going
to be plant.  Write down a note saying that “Let’s plant together our
Seeds of Love and
let our love grow each minute, each day, each week, each month and years”.  (Our note
is just an example.  You can compose a better one that ours.)  And, do plant the seeds
together.  Choose a special moment for both of you to plant it.  

Create “Do You Still Remember This Moment?” Scrapbook
Do you have a memorable photo apart from your wedding photo?  A long time vacation
photo, a birthday photo, any photo which the event was a memorable one.  Pick as much
photos as you can and start doing your “Do You Still Remember This Moment?”
scrapbook.  With this type of creative memory scrapbooks, memories come back to life
when the books are viewed. Pictures make more sense as they are paired with words or
laid out in an organized fashion. Reliving moments preserved in the scrapbooks could
be a good way to keep family ties and strengthen bonds. Additionally, well kept books
could serve as heirlooms that would keep a family’s legacy throughout the coming
generations.

The renewal of vows
The renewal of vows is a ceremony where a couple relives their commitment and vows
to reaffirm their love and devotion to one another.  The couple can set a date that will
coincide with the date they celebrated their original wedding. Many couples prefer to
renew their vows on the exact date of the 10th, 20th, 25th, or 50th anniversary of
their wedding. These are significant dates that they cherish, despite the trials in life
as married couples.  It is also important and significant to many couples who wish to
celebrate their marriage with their families and friends. This celebration is very
significant to many couples because they would once again affirm their commitment be
unified with love.

Time is a luxury that people do not have. There are things that are beyond the control
of people that are unforeseen which happen in the blink of an eye. The best thing to do
is spend quality time together no matter how short or long, making each other feel
loved and special at all times, even though if it is not yet your anniversary day to
celebrate.
