Joanne - how exciting. Congratulations - 25 terrific. We're one year behind you. I hope you enjoy your day. What about getting him a certificate to race a car at Daytona. I have a friend that did that and her husband loved it.

[Rokinronda]

Well, I know I can have Rocky make an announcement and play a song dedicated to you both. Maybe after the fireworks you can take a quiet walk on the LSL boardwalk and tell him how the fireworks are dull compared to the love you have for him! Give him a coupon book for back scratches, foot rubs, breakfast in bed......tickets to an event he has always wished to go to....Give him a lock of your hair tied in a bow for him to carry whenever you are apart...........ok now I'm getting carried away, I give up.

Scottke,

Thanks ....he probably would enjoy that....Plus we would have to schedule another trip to
TV just so he could enjoy it.....OH well....another trip to TV...I would enjoy that....


Thanks

[Casino]

Ronda...

Great ideas ....I cannot thank you enough.....

[nONIE]

Joanne,

How about a full body message? Seriously, he would probably love it.

In any case, Congratulations and heres wishing you 25 more happy years together!

A calendar for the year 2009.

With a picture for every month taken by you or by your husband during that month or season .... sometime over the past 25 years.

A picture of you in your bikini 25 years ago, a picture of the day one of your kids was born, (or of a new puppy if you don't have kids), a picture of him bowling, winning a golf trophy, I'm sure you probably have Christmas pictures, Thanksgiving, Spring, Summer, etc.

I think it is something he would treasure forever.

What a nice idea...I better start looking for pictures....

[chelsea24]

That's a great idea Bare! I was going to try to think of something, but I love that idea. :#1: Great to relive good memories through pictures.

[Barefoot]

I think the calendar idea is a great one, and it's not expensive at all. And when the year is over, it makes a wonderful souvenir. I've been meaning to do it for Fireboy for ages, but I'm too lazy to look for the pictures. Perhaps this will inspire me.

The calendar idea is a great one.

My children did that for me for last Christmas and it is a delight every day when I walk into to my kitchen and see it with meaningful memories.....................

[renielarson]

I wanted to give my husband a keepsake that could be passed on to our children. I bought him a very nice gold watch and had it engraved with a special message just for him.

[Barefoot]

I've got my house up for sale. I've probably had 40 showings in the past month. That means I've cleaned my house 40 times. The real estate company just called and booked another showing for tomorrow afternoon. Arrrrg.

And I don't even get the reward of moving to TV full time because of the :edit: immigration laws. :realmad:

Thanks, I just needed to vent.

[samhass]

Well Bare, that's 40 more showings than I have had. Of course I didn't have to clean since no one was looking at either place. Oh well.
As for the immigration law, that would deeply upset me. Heck, it does upset me. I wish you were here all the time.

Our real estate market here in Canada is still quite lively. I want to get my house sold before the market takes a tumble. I want to get moved before I return to TV for the winter.

I wish I were in TV all the time also. But that will never happen, unless I can get refugee status. That only works if you don't have any money.
