Gift for Our Parents 19th Wedding Anniversary

My parents 19th wedding anniversary is on 18th of this month. My sisters and I want to do something for them. We thought a scrapbook but weren't sure if they would enjoy that. We have no idea what they would like. We will be up at a cottage and wont be home to celebrate it. I'm 16 years old and my sisters are 14 and 10. Our budgets are tight but want it to be special for them. Anything that could help would be appreciated.

Hi Alison,

Your parents 19th wedding anniversary is a special one. It is really nice that you and your sisters are wanting to do something for your parents.

Putting together a scrapbook is a good idea, though scrapbooks are a lot more work than most people realize!

As your family will be away for your parents bronze wedding anniversary, maybe you and your sisters to set aside their anniversary day and do everything for your Mom and Dad.

Get up and make them breakfast in bed. It soen't have to be anything to fancy is you aren't to confident cooking. It the thought that counts!

You could pamper your parents a bit. Give both of them shoulder rubs.

You could even set up the cottage for your parents to have a romantic afternoon alone, without you and your sisters.

Make sure you let your parents know that you love them, and appreciate all the years, time money they have put into raising you all! Parents love to know they are loved and appreciated!

I hope everything goes well with the celebrations!

Thanks for your question.

All the best,

Michelle
