What Ryan and I got each other for our 6th wedding anniversary

Iron Supplement

I thought this was a pretty funny idea (if I do say so haha). An iron gift doesn’t have to be completely literal. I had a gift in mind that I knew Ryan really wanted that isn’t iron (a phone sanitizer, an appropriate gift these days), but still wanted to keep up the yearly traditional gift for our 6 year wedding anniversary. So I bought him a bottle of iron pills. Not exactly what the people who made up all of these yearly gift ideas had in mind, but a cute way to keep up the tradition without spending a ton of money if there is a gift you know that your spouse would appreciate more.

Personalized Interlinked Iron Hearts

Ryan got me a set of interlinking iron hearts with our names and anniversary on them. I love that he embraces the challenge of keeping in theme for our anniversary each year and this was such a beautiful  and thoughtful iron gift.
