If anyone needs me, I’ll be filing for emotional support from my own bed. 😂

Fourteen days of dance nationals in Vegas officially broke me in the best way possible. My Apple Watch is convinced I climbed Mount Everest. My suitcase has become my closet. I have no idea what day it is, and I’m pretty sure I’ve consumed enough coffee to keep the entire dance convention awake. 630 am call times are not for the weak. 

And just when I thought I was headed home… plot twist. ✈️ I’m in Kansas City on set with Brody.

Things I miss, in order:
🥇 My bed.
🥈 My dogs.
🗽 My kids.
🥉 My shower.
Honorable mention… my husband. 💃❤️

To every dance parent living out of hotels, surviving 12 hour competition days, and wondering if you’ll ever unpack again… I see you. We deserve medals too.

Tell me the longest you’ve ever been away from home. Bonus points if you forgot what day it was too. 😂👇

In dance, it’s not just about the steps. It’s about telling a story. And if you know Brody, you know those facial expressions are part of every performance. 😂

Sometimes I watch him and wonder where these expressions even come from…🤣 but somehow they always fit the moment. He gets it from me I swear hahahah! 

Anyway so grateful for the mom night out with @danceology after a year of grinding, whether in the studio or living in the Hyundai, i love my dance fam! 

What’s your favorite Brody facial? 😂👇

Proof that you don’t need a full renovation to completely change the feel of a space. 🤍

Sometimes all it takes is a few thoughtful updates to make a bathroom feel brand new. I had so much fun giving this space a fresh look, and working with @astekinc to choose the perfect @jillmalek wallpaper was definitely my favorite part!

If you’ve been thinking about refreshing a room without spending a fortune, this is your sign. ✨

Comment REFRESH and I’ll send you all my selects!

There’s something about a beautiful meal that becomes even better when you’re sharing it with people you genuinely admire.

Last night, Brody and I had dinner with our dear friend @toddaverylenahan at the incredible new @sartianos at the @wynnlasvegas, and I kept looking around thinking, How lucky are we?

Todd has helped shape so many of the breathtaking spaces throughout the Wynn, including Sartiano’s and Delilah’s and the list hows on. Getting to experience one of his newest visions firsthand made the evening even more special. His creativity never disappoints, and I’m truly blessed to call him my friend.

As an Italian girl, a gorgeous steakhouse with incredible food, timeless design, and conversations that leave your cup full is my kind of night. 🍝 And let’s pause for chef @ruby_doobie who is truly outstanding! 

And then there was Brody… who tried caviar cannolis for the very first time. Three orders later, I’d say it’s safe to say he’s officially hooked. 😂

The Wynn truly knows how to create an experience. Every corner feels intentional, elegant, and unforgettable.

If you could have dinner with one person who inspires you, who would it be? Tell me below. 👇

If you’ve ever wondered where dance moms disappear to every summer… we’re living in hotels. 😂

Week 2 of Nationals is officially here, and while watching your child chase their dream is one of the greatest privileges, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss the rest of my family. My suitcase has officially become my closet, I barely know what day it is anymore, and 12-hour days at the convention have become the new normal.

But these moments? They’re fleeting. One day we’ll miss the early call times, sprinting between ballrooms, grabbing food whenever we can, and cheering until our voices are gone.

So here’s to one more week of hotel life, dance shoes everywhere, and making memories we’ll talk about forever. 💙

Any other dance parents living out of a suitcase this summer? Tell me I’m not alone. 😂👇

Even our dog dances! And before you ask, no, she has nothing wrong with her. I brought her into the vet thinking there was something wrong with her bottom but they said nothing is wrong. This is just what she does.. 🤣 #frenchies #frenchbulldogs
