2nd Anniversary... Part 2



In my last post I mentioned that since it is Mark and I's 2 year wedding anniversary we are celebrating 2 times. Mark was in charge of last Tuesday, which was our actual anniversary. It was a wonderful date to Eddie V's. Today was my day of planning. 

I gave him his present on Tuesday which was a date each month for a whole year. The first one he opened was April, that is when he found out what we were doing for today. 

As I was doing some research trying to figure out what to do for our date I ran across some interesting information. The traditional gift for your 2nd anniversary is cotton, where the modern take is a gift of china. So keeping with the theme of 2 I decided to embrace both. 

For cotton we went and got a massage. I know it isn't a literal meaning, but I was thinking cotton/something cozy. I thought a massage would be nice and relaxing. So we went to Massage Envy. It was a nice place and we both came out feeling relaxed. Definitely some place we will go back to.


For china I decided to go a touch more literal. The website I was looking at suggested buying another place setting to our wedding china. While I am not apposed to that idea, I thought that wasn't very fun. So I needed to find something else. Now Mark and I LOVE food. All kinds from a dive to fine dining, we love to try everything. So I decided on a chinese restaurant. I searched on open table and came up with Yao Fuzi CuisineThe food was delicious, it really brought up your traditional chinese food. We both really enjoyed ourselves and our meals. I just have to say that has some SERIOUSLY delicious curry calamari. 


So thus ends the celebration of our 2nd wedding anniversary. It was a great time and we both really enjoyed planning our separate date and surprising each other.
