DOLLAR DAYS

silver romantic traditional anniversariesI wanted to share what I did for my parents 25th Wedding Anniversary.

Since silver is the traditional gift, I decided to give them 25 silver dollars. One for every year they’ve been married. We are originally from Abilene, KS, the boyhood home of President Eisenhower. So I gave them 25 Eisenhower silver dollars, which was more meaningful for us.

One word of caution is if you want to do this, start early collecting the silver dollars! You have to buy them at antique shops or from someone who collects coins. And they cost more than a dollar each.
