For our one year anniversary (paper), I decided I was going to start a new tradition by making my husband an A to Z Wedding Anniversary Date Book. The date book helps us keep track of what we do on our wedding anniversaries and acts as a scrapbook. The A to Z Anniversary tradition goal is to plan everything about your wedding anniversaries around the letter that goes with that year.

J = 10th Anniversary; Traditional gift is Tin/Aluminum, Modern is Diamond Jewelry

For our 10th anniversary, we originally were planning a second honeymoon to Jamaica but due to health reasons that didn't work out. We made the best of it by having a family date!

For our All about "J" date, we started the day with Jelly donuts and PB&J sandwiches. We took the kids to a trampoline park (Jumping). We checked out a flea market for Junk we didn't need. We ate at Jimmy John's and bought some Ben & Jerry's ice cream. We made a dance video Just because!

Gifts included running shoes (Jogging), a funny tin sign, copper water bottle, homemade copper ring, personalized tin bookmark with 10 tally marks for 10 years.
