Planning and Special, Affordable Anniversary

For all of you creative (and romantic) thinkers out there, I could use some ideas for planning an Anniversary date for my husband. We have been married 11 years and have two very young children. I need to stay within $50. It does not have to be an extremely romantic date since we are not really into all of the "violins and roses" kind of dates, but I want him to feel special and want it to be fun. Thanks!

RE: Planning and Special, Affordable Anniversary

If possible, arrange to have an entire evening (and the next morning) without children. I surprised my husband with a hotel downtown on our last anniversary and I let him decide how to spend the evening from there. He loved getting his wife for an evening alone. Even if your budget doesn't allow a hotel, you can make him the center of attention for the night and he won't care how much (or little) you spent. Congratulations on eleven years!

I think you could work around the number 11. Have eleven special little cards where he is able to pick 9 no peeking and receive whatever is on your card. What is on the card need not cost a cent to be special. If you drink wine, paste a pretty handmade label on the bottle with Happy 11th Anniversary written on it. As it is your anniversary too, order food in that you both enjoy and finish off with a tiny Happy 11th Anniversary cake. Do indulge in two pretty candles to put on the table as it will set the mood for a beautiful evening. Happy Anniversary!
