ideas for anniversary present.

[Rhye]

My parents anniversay is next month. Its their 30th. I wanted to get them tickets to Armenia, but unforunately duo to budget cuts and all the fun stuff at work, I can't really afford that.

So I need help to decide some trips that I would spend less then 2,000. At least something less just so I can give them money to spend as well.

So far I thought about San Diego. They have never been and we can drive them there to spend a few days. I thought about cruise but my dad wont be able to cause he isn't well enough to be in sea like that. And no parties. We will have dinner and stuff but no parties. I will have to invite people I can't stand....

So now I'm left with...I have no idea and need to pick your brains. Anything might spark something. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

You're a sweet daughter!

It's really nice of you to do this. My parents anniversary is in April as well.

I think a nice bed and breakfast for the weekend would be really nice. You said San Diego area, so here's a few places to look at, and not really to expensive either.

You could take them there, drop them off for the weekend, then pick them up.

For my parents 25th wedding anniversary my sisters and I clubbed together and paid for them to go away to a little bed and breakfast in the mountains about 40 minutes from where they live and the one night we booked a special anniversary dinner at nice restaurant. They loved it and it didn't cost us a fortune.

Hope you find something great.

A bed and breakfast, how did I not think of that? Thank you, I will look into it. We will drive them and drop them off, but maybe OH, I will also look at napa valley stuff. That means flying there but I think that would still b enice. Let me see. THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Btw, what day is their anniversary?

Recreate their honeymoon trip.

Hi Ethnog. I got a little ahead of myself. It's actually March 31st.

Glad you liked the idea. I'm sure you'll figure out something great to do

 

[Miss Spaulding]

I totally agree with Chuck about a bed & breakfast! Sounds like a good plan to me.

That would be an adventure but I can't get them to Armenia now, or the Black Sea.

I like the B&B idea...that or a gift certificate for classes they can take together (art, ballroom, cooking)

Fantastic idea. I think they might love this. My mom always wanted to take cooking classes, she LOVES cooking.

I think I'm going to find a poetry book my dad loves. Its going to be hard to search for it, but there is a Russian book store that is near my house, so I am going to go see if they might have anything that is Armenian there.

I've decided what I am going to get.
I already went and talk to the person, made all the calculations and I can afford it for a year and my parents will be the rest of the time. A new car! =) My mom was so overwhelmed when I told her. I wish I could afford the whole time but as a family we work together with these things so in the end its ours.

She has been driving that piece of junk for years and years, my mom deserves something good in her life to go to work and do her fun stuff safely. My dad would be excited about it too! I have a feeling the first thing they will do is go to church together. They are so cute.

What a generous gift! You have such a big heart, they are lucky to have you as their daughter!

Great idea, friend!

I wish I could give them more. Its only a fraction of what they have done for me, but thank you!!

Great idea, friend!

Thank you Tinky!
