Well folks, I think I did well this year. I think I saw a look of genuine surprise on his face when he opened his anniversary gift. This man is near impossible to shop for and it gets a little stressful since his birthday is coming up next month... but alas! I win!
This year, to celebrate our 3rd anniversary, I bought Porch a wooden relief map of the Great Lakes. This is especially meaningful to us for two reasons: we're both from the Midwest and grew up with a love of the lakes and we've admired a similar map in different stores and different forms for the past year and a half. I knew he was into this wooden one we had seen but when we went back, it was gone and the store wouldn't tell us the artist (trying to maintain middle-man status I assume). I did some Amazon shopping (omg, if I could just buy everything on Amazon, I would) and found something that looked comparable. Wasn't sure what to expect when the box arrived. Did a quality check in my office yesterday and was BLOWN AWAY. I love it so much and can't wait to see it hanging on the wall.
Nailed it.
