Anniversary gift for DH
I have no idea what to get DH for our 1st Anniversary.
I was thinking, should I get him something to fix the house? since we are renovating?
You know how men love their power tools 
Not sure what to get, I saw a commercial with a paint tool. You load the paint in the container I think and you just roll away on the wall without ever having to roll in the pan?
What do you think?
OR is there something else he would desperately need for the house or is this a stupid idea getting him tools????

Re: Anniversary gift for DH
you can definitely give him a tool box with a few tools. What guy wouldn't appreciate that.

What about a giant tool box and you jump out of it?? JK
Well, I always like the idea of power tools because then yiu can think of a list of things they can do with them once they have it.

Re: Anniversary gift for DH
we went halves on:
Having our blessing from the Pope framed.
We also had a collage made up of our engagement announcement, wedding announcement, and congratulatory card from The President.

Re: Anniversary gift for DH
we have the paint roller thingy...MIL got it for Dh for his b-day. it's pretty good and we were happy with the job it did. It is a lot of cleanup though...you have to reuse their special roller so you may want to get a Roller Wizard too (washer out rollers for reuse). Painting lights are great also!
