22

My birthday was in September and I never got around to writing about it. Harris made it so special. He picked me up from work and blind folded me. We drove for a while and finally he got me out of the car and and walked me around for a bit. I couldn't really tell where we were but I knew it was a forest-like area. Finally he told me to "stand here." All of the sudden a bench was being scooted under me and I was lifted off the ground. Harris took the blindfold off and I was on a ski lift at Sundance. It was a lovely ride. At the top I noticed a little picnic and I nudged Harry and said, "oh look, how cute!" Then I realized who it was for. whoops.
We ate our little sandwiches and Harris gave flowers!
Later that night we ate dinner with all of our friends at Terra Mia and had a little bon fire at the Anderson home. It was a wonderful birthday! Thanks honey!

Ry Ry's Birthday

Ryan's 24th birthday was on Saturday, so on sunday we had a little bbq celebration! Ryan invited a few of his friends over to our house and we made lots of meat. I haven't had short ribs in a very very long time so it was delicious.

Some of the boys cooked the meat outside on our front porch.

Harry, my handsome, harmonizing, husband, serenaded us a bit. It was lovely, and I snapped this cute little diddy.

Happy birthday Ryan! We love you!

Shout OUT.

My big brother Ryan got engaged yesterday to Mayra Lugo! She's a great little lady and we're so excited to have her as part of our fam. Most importantly, Ryan loves her very very much.

They are super excited too. ;)

Love you both!

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. :)
