6-Year Anniversary: Iron
You might notice that from this point on, most of the materials are really strong. That's because you've proven as much with your marriage. Every anniversary is worth celebrating and six years is nothing to ignore. You can have fun with this one or be practical; either way, congratulations.

What better way to surprise your husband or wife (or both of you) than getting a new set of clubs or at least TaylorMade's new R9 SuperTri Driver? This bad boy offers 24 combinations of differing face angles and CG locations to squeeze out 75 yards of side-to-side trajectory change (not counting your slice) and offers an aerodynamic head shape for less drag. You can almost smell that fresh cut green you knocked onto.

7-Year Anniversary: Wool or Copper
The funny thing about copper is that it's really beautiful when it's new and polished, kind of like your marriage. That newness, though, begins to fade away and is soon replaced with something even better—and that's the good stuff, that's the character coming out. Can you even imagine the Statue of Liberty any other color than oxidized copper green? You can only get these colors with longevity. Celebrate them.

9-Year Anniversary: Pottery
Pottery has been around for centuries. It's an art that seems so simple on the surface, but is remarkable when done well. But rather than admiring the work of others, create some of your own. It's activities like these that will continue to keep you marriage fresh. Heck, bust out the video camera and try to recreate the scene from the movie "Ghost" as you and your spouse spin your own pot of clay. That's an anniversary you'll remember.
