WWYD: Anniversary

Next year is our 20th anniversary (19 years today) and we are thinking of going back to Hawaii where we honeymooned. We tried to go away without kids for our 10 year anniversary, but I felt so guilt ridden and missed the kids that I had my mom and sister come meet us on our trip. We had a great week with everyone there. Two weeks later my mom died, and I was so grateful I had her join us since it gave me treasured memories (she lived 800 miles away). Ever since, we've always taken the kids on all our trips. I know if I just had the big kids, I wouldn't feel so bad traveling without them, since they'd understand it was a big anniversary....but LO will only be 2 1/2 and I'm a SAHM so I'm always with her. So what would you do:
**DD1 - 7/9/98**
**DS - 11/9/00**
**DD2 - 4/30/13**

Go as a couple in 6 years for our 25th when LO is older....but we'll have 2 kids in college then so funds may be tight
