I'm so clueless this year! I want to do something special/creative. Any funky ideas? I definitely want to include his friends this year.

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight ST, that's a cute idea. Do you have a Laser Tag place near where you live? That's always fun to do, and it's inexpensive and loads of fun. Then you could do dinner afterwards.

Originally Posted By BroadwayBoy Haha yea I love twister, and I'm pretty good at it too! Thank you everyone for your awesome ideas! I loved them all. What we decided was to keep it simple this year (since we are all tight on money), and go out for sushi and dancing after. That's what he said he wanted to do. But our anniversary is coming up so I'll take your ideas in mind. AuroraRose, we have the Birch Aquarium here and believe it or not I've never been! I think we may check that out!! Thanks everyone!!! <3
