Write then a letter telling then how much you love them and how inspirational it is for you to see them through another year of marriage when divorce is so acceptable these days.
Parents love to know that they are setting a good example for their kids. (I know because I am one) Hug them both and just tell them you love them...its better than any store bought trinket. Then, clean the house :)

Do you have access to photo albums, including wedding photos? Possibly a journey through the years, from engagement, wedding, major events. Print it up as a mini book and punch a couple of holes along the left side and tie together with a ribbon. Maybe a few words scattered throughout, something from your heart. The last page could be your card for them. The front cover could be their wedding photo.

When I was in college one of my ex's did this for me when we were both poor... She made me a coupon book... So you can do that too...
One free House sitting Weekend.
One free Home Cooked Meal
One free Room Cleaning.
One free Item fixed
One free Pet Sitting Weekend
One free Whatever
Thats not what she gave me... Those coupons were for other things but you get the idea...

Yes find a picture of them two together that they haven't seen in a while . Put it in a frame or make a paper frame and write a sweet poem around the edge of it . If you cant think of a poem then go on line and find one that expresses their love or your love for them .

cleaning the house would be a great gift along with giving them both hugs and telling them how much you love them

it's called the squash book and bascially it is like a mini photo srapbook---if you got pretty semi thick paper, glue, photos, crafty type supplies, scissors... then you can make one
take the paper and fold into two traingles across and then glue another folded to one folded side for a total of four pages then make sure it all folds up together----open up and add messages, photos, crafty decals etc....

Your original thought is wonderful, I would love it. Top it off with a Thank you note on their anniversary because without them coming together, where would you be?

I think they'd rather have a clean house and go to dinner...that's what I would want from my kids.
How did you get your picture to look just like Peggy Hill!?!?

Try writing them a letter and letting them know how you feel.
