If she has always wanted to go dancing and you haven't gone set up some ballroom dancing lessons for the two of you. Pretty cheap I got 6 weeks of group salsa lessons for 45 per person total. Or maybe you don't. Im kind of regretting my decision now.

A trip to Italy, France, or Greece (raincheck 'till late next spring) will do the trick. A bit more affordable now with the dollar strengthening. If not that, diamonds always work, especially when accompanied by chocolate. She won't think it's lame.

ROFL she.d kill me if I bought something like that

Regarding the boat:

Get it. Don't tell her. Eventually she'll notice you are sneaking off on weekends, but when she finds out why she'll be so relieved it's not another girl that she may let you skate. If not, sell it - at least you had it for a little while.

1.China set.
2.Earrings.
3.Raincheck for a cruise
And the piece de resistance will be a cruise next year somewhere ,dunno where yet ,maybe I,ll put a poll on here
Maybe i,ll get that boat after the cruise
BTW came home last night and found a Playboy Bunny sitting on the couch lol

Thanks in advance.

Weekend trip to Paris, France or Interlaken, Switzerland

just pack her bags, request off of work for her and don't tell her anything until she gets to the airport

Virgin Vacations always have those weekend getaways air/hotel etc

Renew your vows in a small ceremony with close friends and then take a small romantic vacation somewhere close but nice. A Sedona AZ, spa comes to mind.

The wife and me had a great evening out and she was thrilled with the china and the earrings and I gave her a raincheck on the cruise and told her that she could decide which one we went on .
BTW how much is a boat like the one pictured?

A nice 20ft bassboat with a 150hp outboard will set you back at least $35k.
