My family was in the flower business. My mom retired from that business a few years back. Noboby appreciates flowers like a woman. You spent $450 on flowers. A practical person will say "they will just die in a few days". They are basically meaningless and "think of what else you could have done with that money".
A romantic will say that your husband will remember the smell and the look of those flowers as he enters the room for the rest of his life. He will remember the look of your face when he encounters that bouquet in the room. He will then turn and look into your smiling eyes and remember the look of you and the smell of you and that moment for the rest of his life. Put a price on that!! Practicality is crap. Romance is life and what makes life (with that special someone) worth living to the fullest. Buy flowers...drink wine...embrace and live in the moment. It is a moment that you will relive in memory a thousand times over. He may not gush over it verbally but in silent thought, in quiet moments of the day he will get a sly smile on his face as his mind wanders to this event. Buy that for less than $450!

Wow! You must have come a long way since your humble beginnings in order to afford an entire city for your anniversary. "Champaign" is actually a city in central Illinois. Perhaps you were referring to the sparkling white wine known as "champagne". Who wants to play "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?".![]()

Wow. I guess some people have that kind of money to blow on something that dies.
Well, all I asked for for our upcoming 6th Anniversary is a $250 i-pod and you would have thought I asked DH for a kidney. I don't think he has even spent $450 on me the entire time we have been married.

We get criticized for taking a second Disney Trip this year. In April I was an EMT who was involved in the VA Tech massacre. The entire time all I could think about was my own babies at home as I tried to care for someone else's baby. So, if I decide to spend my money on a second trip to spend time with my babies, it is my choice. I can't take it with me and my kids will have memories that is worth more than the money we spend. If you want to spend $450 or $4050 for your memories you go right ahead. I hope you have an awesome time. Take pictures for us to see.
