Trovy's Wedding: Wedding of the YEAR

Our dear friends Trevor Cone and Jovy Delos Reyes finally tied the knot! Their wedding was in the Manhattan temple on September 3rd. It was a great wedding and I cried like a little baby during the sealing. Our Jovs is married!

They were married in the morning and had a luncheon reception at the Riviera, in Massapequa on Long Island. It was gorgeous.

Outside was beautiful. We loved the view.

It was held at this little boat house here.

I was at the head table so Harry came and visited me every once in while. I sat next to Alana and I am so sad because the day after the wedding she caught a flight to Utah and then a one way flight back to Hawaii with her husband.

Harris' parents came up to NY to see us and come to the wedding. It was really nice to see them and get to spend time with them.

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Cone! It was a beautiful wedding and I know you will have a beautiful life together!

New York Minute

Two weeks ago Harris and I got to go to New York City for six days. It was fantastic and I love that city. We got in at about 6:30 a.m and that night we went to go see The Lion King on Broadway. It was my first Broadway show and it was amazing. The costumes were fantastic and the performers voices gave me chills. Nala was my favorite. She had a good, strong, black lady voice. Loved it.

This is the face of Mufasa that they use for the part when he speaks to Simba from heaven.

This was the Scar costume. They did a great job with making him a villain.

A day in central park

We went to FAO Schwartz and played on the "BIG" piano.

We stopped in at Tiffany's on 5th Ave. This is the famous Tiffany diamond. It is 128 karat diamond. holy moly. (don't ask me why a bird is on it, I have no idea.)

This is the biggest hibiscus I've ever seen and it was in Battery Park. Lady Liberty is tiny behind me.

Ground Zero just days before the opening of the memorial on the 10 year anniversary.

New York skyline.

Loved every minute of this trip. The reason we came was for Trevor and Jovy's wedding, which will have its own post entirely. Coming soon!

Harry

A few people have told me that they think my husband looks like Harry Potter.

I have no idea what they are talking about.

Boating

Yesterday after work Mr. Clarke and I went boating for a couple of hours with the Jackmans. It was so fun and so nice of the Jackmans to invite us! I went on the tube and apparently looked miserable, but I really had so much fun on it. I had to stop because I was starting to feel a little sick, an ongoing battle I have with large bodies of water. Mr. Clarke went on the tube, the wakeboard and the kneeboard. He had a blast.

I did bring my camera but unfortunately it was dead. Fortunately, I do have a picture of Mr. Clarke from a previous boating experience. Unfortunately, I did not even know him when this was taken. Fortunately, he looks good wake boarding. :)

Bachelorette Season Finale

Anyone that knows me knows that if you bring up the bachelorette I get extremely excited. This happened at a relief society activity recently with the women pictured below. We all got crazy excited talking about it and decided to throw a bachelorette season finale party, hosted by Sarah Tyau. She has a big screen projector and it made every moment magical. I felt Ben's pain and JP's joy. It even made the mud date feel ten times more uncomfortable.

Sarah was also sweet enough to provide most of the treats. She made chocolate covered strawberries and popcorn and lots of other goodies. She even lit candles to set the mood.

Usually I just make Mr. Clarke watch it with me, but it's so different when you have a bunch of women who are actually into it. We kept talking over each other and usually had to rewind to catch what we missed.

Thanks for the fun party Sarah!

(I stole this picture off of Sarah's blog, so thanks for that too.)

Twenty Five

Today is my dear husband's 25th birthday! I gave him his present this morning (Ray Ban sunglasses) and we are going out to dinner tonight in Salt Lake. He is so sweet and good to me and deserves the best birthday of his life!

I love you my sweet.

Post Wedding

A friend of mine is building her photography portfolio and needed a couple to take engagement photos. She took pictures of us, so I just call them our "post wedding photos."

These were my two favorites.

Thanks Meredith! You did a great job!
