Question Parents' 25th Anniversary - December 9th 2013, 02:49 PM

So, it's my folks' 25th anniversary next month and there is gonna be this huge party slash family reunion. And since it's the big 25th, I'd like to get them something. However, I don't really believe in materialistic gifts and I'm somewhat challenged in art ( ). So, any ideas would be welcome. I can write them a poem since I'm an okay writer but that'd be too...teeny-tiny.
My brother is getting 'em a brand-new LED TV and there's no way I can match that unless of course, I sell one of my kidneys or something. -_____-'
Sooo any ideas would be welcome!
Thanks!

How about a new car?

Or a house. I mean, there's lots of way you can one-up your brother's gift. Of course, those options are expensive.

What about a $100 gift card to their favorite shop or a nice restaurant. Or a gift card to an inn/hotel-slash-restaurant, or a vacation getaway?

Maybe you can throw them a party so they're around their friends and family? Just a thought. I like the above ideas too.

That family reunion thing is sort of planned by me and all but it's not a surprise anymore.
And my dad lives away because of his job. He is just coming for a day or two for the anniversary so a vacation getaway and all is out of question.
Thanks though.

If you have any pictures of your family on vacations or just portraits or anything you can make a collage or a family scrapbook of memories and such. It would be cheap and very sentimental. You can put a few poems in it too that you can write about memories.


And here you are living, despite it all.
