    You are so right, why didn't I think of that...I am so glad you did because this is a really special post. I am getting in the mood for some LOVE, chocolate, flowers or a sweet card will do. My honey will find a way. Or maybe just a kiss that says I love you! Mary

      We've been married for almost 25 years and gestures really say more than any gift or card. Several years ago I wrote 'You Are Loved' on a post-it and stuck it on the bathroom mirror while Bob was in the shower. He still keeps it on the mirror (with a little help from scotch tape!) -- Jan

    I thought the button idea was really cute. I'm looking for something a bit special for my parents 50th Wedding anniversary in September. Jx

      Wow - 50 years, that's wonderful. When a girlfriend's parents celebrated their 50th their children and grandchildren had a 50's party (they were married in 1955). They built a timeline banner that stretched across the living room wall, had everyone dress up like the 1950s and a few guests impersonated actors and famous people from that era. It was one of the cutest and most fun parties I've ever attended. Talk about vintage! -- Jan
