I meant to post part-two of our first anniversary celebrations a little earlier...considering our first anniversary was over two months ago now! Oops!
Well, here it is! In case you've forgotten, our anniversary celebrations part-one consisted of a little road trip to the area where we got married.
For the later part of the same evening, we went to a local restaurant, Vast, in the top two floors of our city's tallest building, Devon Energy. One thing I didn't expect about this experience was that the elevators rise so quickly that my ears were popping!
The building's interior is made up of many Oklahoma materials such as limestone and decorated with intricate rocks and fossils.
This fountain flows so softly that it just looks like glass.
I love these reflections!
This fossil is probably about five feet across!
Needless to say, Tyler loved it.

The interior of the restaurant. It was a bit awkward to take many pictures inside the restaurant, so I just have a few inside the restaurant. We unfortunately weren't placed near the window, so getting pictures overlooking the city were even harder and more awkward.
This is the only picture we took in the restaurant. It was awkward taking the picture in there since the restaurant was so fancy, so it is kind of a bad one!
I enjoyed the Native Amber-Brined Chicken Breast. It was yummy!
During our honeymoon in New Mexico, we picked up a bottle of wine to save for our first anniversary! We celebrated by visiting the Davis area and eating at Vast for our one year on Saturday, which was actually May 17th. But our true one-year anniversary was May 18th. We saved our bottle of wine for Sunday so we could extend the celebration through the weekend!
We were pretty happy with the wine we picked up!
Thanks, super strong hubby, for opening the wine bottle. It wasn't exactly playing fair.
(We were opening the wine outside in fear that we'd spill it everywhere trying to get it open).
I do believe that it was the first time we've used our wine glasses from our wedding shower and the cork puller that we got from the pottery barn coupon that was also in one of our wedding gifts!
To anyone reading this who got us those gifts, we loved using them for the first time! Now that they're broken out, maybe they'll see the light of day more often!
We planned our first anniversary to be more extravagant than any future ones (we'll probably never spend that much on a meal in the future), but it was definitely worth it to celebrate our first year of marriage!
What did you do for your first anniversary? What have you done for subsequent anniversaries?
