I`m not much help, all I can suggest is that flowers, chocolates and candy are usually winners....

I am not sure how old you ae or what your budget it. I beleive every woman I have talked to has had enough winter. A quick trip to a warm spot (Vegas comes to mind) would really impress her!

that would be a sweet idea... maybe next year! but between both me and her changing jobs and her going to classes thats a no go...

i really wanna come up with something creative tho... im having flowers sent to her at work on valentines day, since i work 8-5 and she works 4-9 so thats the best i can do that day haha

Which comes first - anniversary, bday, or v day? Valentines day is on Thursday and I would definitely make sure you pick her up after work so she can slip into a nice warm vehicle right out the door. You will have to maybe make arrangements to take her to work (might not work with your work) so maybe have a buddy get her vehicle home after work. Take her to some place for a drink or two and just spend some time together in a place with the right type of atmosphere.
For bday or anniversary - I see you mentioned snowmobiling. If she likes it maybe a quick trip out to somewhere like Good Spirit lake - rent a cabin, they have a hot tub. Its nice there! Just throwing some ideas out there - its winter so we have to live it. If she likes outdoors, maybe skiing or ice fishing? Does she have any real special interests? Maybe there is something going on that you know she would like but would never expect you would take the time to go to.
The dinner/supper, chocolates, candy, flowers are always winners and are always a good idea just in case something goes wrong with the other plans. I definitely find flowers to have the most impact of any in that group of ideas!

Do what I did, buy a 30,000 dollar boat!

It was kinda a gift to both of us, and it covers b-days, v-days, and xmas's for awhile.

Well then, what is she all into? Could maybe get her a cool practical, or fun gift, then do the romance thing on the side.

Im good at getting into trouble, I kinda like it

I thought about it a little last night. 6 month anniversery. Small pieve of jewlery, NOT any sort of ring, you dont want that getting confused.

V-day, cook something that will take ya a few hours. Even if it tastes like @ss after the time spent on it will get her.

B day I would say something like a laptop if shes into computers, or a tatoo if shes into that, something to support her hobbies.

Definately buy this man a beer!he nailed it,get her a gift certificate to a day spa,where they do the manicure and pdicure,where they put mud on their faces all that stuff.It's relatively cheap too.But be prepared,you probably be buying alot of spa treatment's after the first one.Good luck.
