Then ask. It doesn't have to be a date in the serious, romantic sense. It could be a day in the park with the kids. It could be as simple as a long phone conversation. Send a simple card that doesn't say anniversary (it could, but might be overwhelming). Maybe a dinner at home. I would say that any fairly neutral activity that doesn't pressure him too much is good.

He may say no, but sometimes the asking is enough to show that you are making an effort.
