Roby and I have been talking for a long time about doing something BIG for our tenth wedding anniversary (in two years). We aren't 100% sure what yet...not even 50% sure...but we have ideas. Its not going to be a huge deal, but for us it is. We have been through a lot, are beating the odds...and well...I think we deserve it! This summer I had an empty plastic jar that I painted with the plans of putting all our change in. Its kinda tacky, but knowing its there makes me smile! (And the paint prevents us from opening it!!!)
After painting the jar, I refuse to use change when buying something. Every time I break a dollar it goes in the jar. We've also sold a few things on Craig's List, and the money from that goes in as well. As of now, the jar is at least 1/3 full. I hope we get a couple more jars filled in the next two years so we get to have a fabulous TENTH anniversary!!!
(Writing and publishing this makes it more real...so now we have to do something!!!)
