A nice idea I did for Valentines day was a personalised calendar. You can make them online on Photobox and they cost about £25 - £30 for quite big ones. You can completely make it your own, with a picture on the front and you can insert little pictures to the top bit of each month, onto each day, and write whatever you want.
So for example on your anniversary you can mark it with a picture of you two and some words. So I did this and put things to look forward to and filled it with stuff like 'this time last year we were...' and say some really nice memory you had. He really loved it! I usually do a thoughtful gift like that and then kind of get something else thats bought.
For Christmas I did something similar... I made this jar thing which i personalised with pictures of us on it, and it was lit up with fairy lights, then I cut out lots of little pieces of paper and wrote things I wanted to do with him before we closed the distance, and tied them with ribbons, and our task is to do each thing before we close the distance, so in each of our visits we complete stuff from the jar. Can insert all sorts, there were some things like 'meet my grandparents' but other little jokey things and some naughty things too!
Just ideas anyway! We also do things like, cheesy as it sounds, make home made CD'S with songs we both like and that remind me of him, and him of me, and they are defiantly appreciated!
Hope this has helped to anyone having trouble
