Lisa Almquist Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Wow Harvey Lee, I'm a newlywed compared to you. I think my man needs to take some lessons. Seriously. Your wife is one lucky gal as it is! I guess keep it simple. This is what I would love so bear with me. And make sure that the house is clean or it won't work! Here's a scenario: A bath with rose petals. A great steak on the grill. Chocolate something for dessert. Foot massage. No ballgames or hockey on TV. Just you and her-talk about when you fell in love and get mushy and nostalgic. A nice gift of course too like flowers and another diamond something? Women love that. At least the women I know. You've just given her TIME and a GIFT. Good luck buddy but I really don't think you need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reelemin Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 A trip/vacation to her favorite place, quality time together, and a jewelry momento bought during the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_icefish_in_my_sleep Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 It would help if you told us a bit about her. What do you know for sure that she likes, dislikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinchicks Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I've said this before, but ask her closest friends. We always share what we would like, or what we are hoping for. Sometimes, they give the best ideas. My hubby figured that out after a couple of presents that bombed. Let me suggest no home-made gift certificates.

Nate McVey Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Harvey, I'm pretty sure you have kids (and grandkids, if I remember)and I have no idea if your wife is the sentimental type, but.....if that is the case I got my mom a photoblanket from a company called treasure knit. I snuck her favorite photo of my sister and I when we were very young out of the house, scanned it and then emailed it to the company. In a little over a week I got the finished product back and I was blown away! I immeadiatly called my dad and sister to warn them that mom was going to cry (good tears ) on Christmas! I can't wait for her to open it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey lee Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Thats one thought, I could have someone make a nice framed picture of the grandkids or a family framed portrait. This would be a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WifeKidsandDog Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 What about one of the digital photo frames and have photos of the highlights from the last 32 years on it -- start with your wedding or even engagement and then go from there. Would be quite a lot of work picking photos and scanning them but i think the end result would be wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
