We recently had wedding anniversary 8 for 32 years of marriage. I chose this as the theme. I put 32 of them all over the house, hidden in plain sight, for Mr. Wonderful to find.

When we first got together we stayed in a dive motel called Jolly Roger. So, I celebrated by putting pirate sticker around.

A tradition is associated with February 29 in leap years. Long ago, Leap Day, also was known as “Ladies’ Day” or “Ladies’ Privilege,” the only period of time when women were free to propose to men. It is thought that this event may have been based on a Scottish law in the 1200s or on an Irish legend, but no one knows for sure.

Actually, it's quite firmly established as an Irish tradition that other countries, including Scotland, took on eventually. They just can't say whether it happened to the historical figures that the legends of Saints Bridget and Patrick were based on, or it was an entirely invented set of folk tales.

Thank you for that because where I am from it was common knowledge about date. Other places I have lived never heard of such a thing.
replyDoesn't your husband suspect anything when Mr. Wonderful comes to play a game? During your anniversary party?!?!
