It's Your Anniversary!

These days with the skyrocketing divorce rates upwards of 50% I wonder how many people get to celebrate an anniversary? I was just wondering what the typical anniversary gifts were and thought to share with you. I'm so not a traditional gal and some of these gifts are just plain wacky. I will definitely be making my own traditions when it comes to anniversary gift exchanges. Who came up with this stuff? lol
