16 Candles- One for every year we've been married.
A note delivered with Candle #1 and breakfast that said:
Sweet 16 and you've never missed an opportunity to make me feel loved or give me a kiss,
so throughout today enjoy a gift or deed for every year of marital bliss.
(I know it doesn't really rhyme- I was brain dead.)

No, I didn't just give him the box, I actually made it for him.
#14- A little something to relax after a hard day of work.
#15- A garment steamer for making dressing for the corporate world a little easier.
#16- CENSORED! :) We are married after all.
It turned out to be a really fun day and Richard was surprised and pleased with all of his gifts, which in turn made it all the more fun for me.

That is a lot of fun Nat! I love seeing it in person.
Between you and Gerb, you are making me feel guilty about my 20th coming up and expecting Brian to surprise ME!!!! :D
I love it! Allen's birthday is coming up and I've got nothing...
Natalie = this is so kind and so clever and loving. I feel really ashamed I never thought to do anything so nice myself. But maybe Richard wasn't as bossy as somebody I know was when he was young like ya'll are. SHOCK: I've been married more than twice as long as you guys. How could that be when I feel like I'm the same age you are? I find this deeply puzzling. And I LOVE TAPICOA TOO. How many people even know what it is anymore? I'm so proud of you = that was a tremendous amount of paying attention, remembering and doing. You are so good.
What an awesome idea! This makes us all look really bad. I guess I better step it up a bit, too. We celebrate #17 next month. Yikes! Thanks for sharing.
So cute! And so personalized! I am trying to think if I even know 16 of Jareds favorite things!
This is the cutest idea ever! Maybe I can steal it sometime! We're only on #13. Maybe I should do it now so I can be lazy and avoid 3 additional gifts. Seriously, how amazing!
