My parents are two weeks away from celebrating 35 happy year's of marriage. Both sets of Grandparents made it to 50. We don't have a big family but we are close. Me and my sister can't figure out what to do for them for 35. Last year we got them tickets to see Book of Mormon. The idea's that are on the table is we rent out a private room in a NY restaurant and invite there friends and the rest of our family to a catered meal or we buy them a weekend trip just to get out of the every day routine someplace. We can't afford to send them to Europe where they have never been but we were thinking Myrtle Beach .
To the people on the site How did you celebrate your 35th year if you made it that far? What would you want your grown kids to do for you for 35? Looking forward to seeing what you have to say. If you got different idea's share them. We are open to idea's Magic Day is February 1st.
It's like the redneck Riveria. It's a tourist trap and can be a crowded mess. Check out NC beaches or the NC outer banks if you're wanting a quiet and romantic kind of deal for them. HIlton Head Island in SC is nice more upscale or check the Charleston SC area. Oak Island NC is a quaint place and quiet yet close to Carolina Beach, Wilmington and the little town of South Port where they make a bunch of those Nick Sparks movies. I love the NC coast but you couldn't pay me to go to Myrtle Beach again.
A little banter with a gal here can be fun and be useful to establish a dialogue with a lady before meeting but....
It helps if the lady you're trying to butter up is PARTICIPATING IN THE THREAD. And you've, hopefully unintentionly, blundered. Imagine walking into the Ford dealer walking up to the sales guy and saying " I'm gonna buy a Camaro" See how goofy that looks? Now the last thing Miss Stephanie needs is my assistance, but just thought as a service to the community and maybe to learn ya something.
Very true!! I was assuming that he had enough sense to know any coastal area north of Florida wouldn't be a great choice till spring/summer. But ya never know what someone else has in mind. I was assuming he was planning ahead. You may have just saved them a major let down.
Thanks for the great advice. I know it's the general board I have mentioned to admin to make a board where you can discuss anything they haven't done that yet so I'm typing it here. Enjoy your night.
I think the reason they made it to 35 years is because they never cheated on each other. My dad only has eyes for my mom. My mom would be repulsed by the idea of a male escort.
having hit the 35 mark myself, I'd say -- the folks just want you to know you remember and care. Call them. Tell them you love them. Tell them you're thankful they were your parents. That's all they really want.
We spent 4 days in a mountain view suite at the Inn on The Biltnore Estate in Asheville. There is a lot to do there: tour the mansion, the gardens are spectacular (especially in late April and early May), there's a winery, horseback riding, carriage rides, etc.
Bed and Breakfast. I think people who are that age love that kind of thing, I know many people who enjoy it... Good luck
