Sentimental 65th Anniversary Gift Ideas For Grandparents

by Angie

They are wonderful grandparents. They love their family. They are 85 and they have 3 kids, 6 grandkids, and 7 great grandkids. As with most elderly people...they have everything they really want so it is hard to buy for them. We have done the video thing, and the quilt. We are all getting together to celebrate. We are not doing a sit down party type thing. Any ideas as to what we could do to make it even more special and all about celebrating the miracle that started with the two of them.

Hi Angie

A 65th anniversary gift idea that starts with your grandparents is a lovely idea and it leads to the obvious family tree, but for such a big celebration it needs to be pretty special.

You could have a family tree on a big board for everyone to look at, starting with a photograph of your grandparents on their wedding day. It is almost that their wedding day is the birthday of your family as you all know it.

Taking the family theme you could have everyone write why they love being part of your family and why your grandparents are so special to them. You could combine the 65 years and have 65 reasons of how special they are from everyone. This can then be collated in a book for your grandparents with lots of photos of the two of them and you all.

Hope that helps you get started on an idea, would love to hear what you decide.

Best wishes
