Need some ideas

I am making a scrapbook for a friend for the first year of her marriage and I need some ideas. The theme is going to be 'Our Book of Firsts as a Married Couple' and I need to fill up 20 pages in the book. I will be putting together everything in the scrapbook except for pictures which my friend can insert as the events come along. Here is what I have come up with so far:

First Halloween, Christmas, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Easter, Valentine's Day, New Year's Eve (that's all I can think of for major holidays).

First vacation, birthdays, pet, cooking disaster, anniversary (this will be the last page), trip to the movies, and house/home.

So, that is fourteen pages and I will need 6 more ideas. Can anyone think of anything else important that goes on in the first year of marriage? I am about 7 months into mine and my mind is drawing a blank.

Thanks so much for any ideas that you give!

Re: Need some ideas

I don't know if these are good ideas, but maybe first summer together or first dinner party.

I know I'm stretching a bit, I'm really not good at these creative things.

Re: Need some ideas

They are both English teachers at a private school. They love taking vacations. I had already thought of the first home one, but thank you for thinking of it too!

I would like to stay away from anything food related because I am doing a page for first cooking disaster and I want to have a lot of variety in the scrapbook pages.

Keep the ideas coming!
