100 dollars is not much to work with but you cant go wrong with any kind of jewelry!

What I have been doing for the last 4 years is. I send a dozen red roses to her work with one white one for 1 year 2 white ones for 2 years and so on.
This year she got 12 red and 4 white. Works great.
Then I also get her some kind of jewelry to give her in person.

Good luck and congrats!

Take some money out of the truck fund and take her to a really nice fancy restaurant. Get all dressed up and buy her nice flowers. Some things are more important than trucks. You messed up though with jewerly for the 6 month hahaha. Now you have to live up to that standard. Just kidding.

Yeah...it sucks...but the truck's gotta wait. Plus...the 6-month's a deal, the year's a deal, but nobody cares about a year and a half...you got a whole nother year before you gotta celebrate again.

Get money outta the truck fund.

Nice dinner, flowers, and jewelry. Keep it small, simple, and in-line with the other stuff you've gotten before, they seem to like it when their jewelry matches conveniently.

That's kind of what my girlfirend did for part of my Christmas present and I really liked it. I emptied my wheel fund for my truck to get her a necklace for Christmas. It hurts, but she's more important than my truck. The wheels can wait. Moments like anniversaries don't.

I would be cut off for weeks! Hahahaha. My girl likes more of the thoughtful things like scrapbooks and stuff. Makes it hard for me because I have no aritistic ability. She would rather us make eachother stuff thatn buy things. Dinner always works.
