Two weekends ago (August 20th) my wife and I celebrated our 23rd wedding anniversary. I spent the weekend judging a BBQ contest in New Paltz NY, she went to a air show in Burlington VT. After the brisket turn in I hustled home (4 hour drive) so we could go to a nice French restaurant for dinner. It poured and she got soaked and was cold, she decided not to wear the Gor-tex rain gear I got her for Valentines day. We skipped diner and I went for a pizza.

Last night I installed her anniversary gift (a curved shower rod) in her bathroom. I got a Fog Free Reflections mirror de-foger for my bathroom. So last night I felt guilty that she didn't get suitable gift so I ordered her a vacuum tumbler, I hope she lets me use it for BBQ competitions.
 
Umm, well you're about as romantic as my ole man! That's not saying a whole lot! LOl That's ok because I'm not the most romantic person on the planet myself!

Oh yeah, I'd love a vacuum for Christmas! Someone please tell Les!
 
My 14th anniversary was July 21st. I offered to take my wife on a nice trip to Virginia, she wasn't keen on the idea. I met some real nice folk down there and helped cook some BBQ.

What'd you get her for Christmas, a vaccum cleaner?

Vacuum cleaner...please. Two years ago I got her a meat grinder but I think I .... or I mean she needs a bigger one with more horse power. Last year she got a 5# vertical sausage stuffer.
 
Last year I got her jewelry..then for my my Birthday she told me we were having a wonderful meal and company was gonna be here for it...then she told me what the menu was so I could get the right stuff to cook....so for next years 20th anniversay i think she's gonna get a Weber Performer

I've got one coming up. Think I'll get my wife a new chainsaw.

Dat's what I'm talking about, my nephew striped out the spark plug on my big chainsaw so now I have to use the limbing saw. I like big powertools.
 
My wife got me a tread mill one year for Christmas. The following year I got her a tablesaw! One year for our anniversary (which was the only year I got her a gift) I gave her a new cesspool! See loved it so much, to this day she still uses it everyday!
