Last year was TOO good not to run it back. šŸ·āœØ

A little throwback to one of my favorite weekends in San Diego because the @delmarfest is BACK! šŸ„‚

The food, the people, the energy… and apparently a little friendly competition too. šŸ˜‚šŸ“ If last year was any indication, you do not want to miss what’s coming this year.

Who am I seeing at Del Mar Wine + Food Festival?! šŸ‘€šŸ“šŸ·

Okay, Part Two of our Big Bear A-frame renovation… and THIS is the part I’ve been waiting for: installation day.

If you saw Part One, you know we went to Flooring 101 in Thousand Oaks to find the perfect floors for this space, and the second I saw Canopy Floors’ Creekside Walnut, I knew.

It has this gorgeous, warm walnut tone with so much natural-looking variation, and it completely brought that cozy, elevated mountain-cabin feel I wanted to life.

And now seeing it installed? I’m obsessed.

The entire process with Flooring 101 and Canopy Floors was honestly so seamless—from choosing the flooring, to getting everything ordered, to installation day. For a renovation project where there are constantly a million decisions to make, having this part be so easy was EVERYTHING.

And look at the difference these floors made. They completely transformed the space. It feels warmer, bigger, and finally has that cozy A-frame character I pictured from the beginning.

Working with Flooring 101 and Canopy Floors was truly one of the best decisions we made for this renovation.

The floors are officially IN… and this Big Bear house is finally starting to feel like home.

Just wait until you see what we do next.

ELEVEN YEARS AGO, I HAD MY FOURTH CHILD. I DIDN’T KNOW I WAS GIVING OUR ENTIRE FAMILY A HUGE HEARTBEAT!

Brody came into a house that was already loud, chaotic and filled with huge personalities… and somehow became the loudest, funniest and biggest personality of them all.

He was the baby dragged to every game, practice, school event and family trip. He grew up watching his brothers and sister chase their dreams, and then one day, our entire family started chasing his right alongside him.

The world sees the dancer. The actor. The trophies. The stages. The millions of views.

We see the hours no one applauds.

We see the sore feet, the early call times, the nerves, the rejection and the little boy who gets back up every single time because dancing isn’t just something he does. It is part of who he is.

But Brody, please always remember this:

You never have to perform for our love.
You never have to win for our love.
You never have to be the boss for our love.

Inside this house, you are simply ours.

Our baby. Our comic relief. Our joy trigger. The kid who steals our beds, tortures his siblings, takes over every room and somehow gets away with absolutely everything.

Your talent may be what the world notices first, but your heart will always be the greatest thing about you.

Happy 11th birthday to my fourth child, my forever baby and one of the greatest loves of my life.

Keep dancing. Keep dreaming. Keep taking up space. Keep showing other little boys that they never have to make themselves smaller to make other people comfortable. Keep inspiring as we need more boys in dance!

There are six of us in this family, and when one of us dreams, all of us show up.

Happy birthday, Brody. The world may know your name, but we are the lucky ones who get to know your heart. šŸ¤

Please help me wish our baby a very happy 11th birthday! šŸŽ‚ mama loves you ā™„ļø

Some things are so much bigger than ourselves. šŸ¤
Ā 
My husband and I partnered with @HyundaiUSA to attend a special @HyundaiHopeOnWheels Warrior Rally in Houston, standing alongside incredible childhood cancer warriors, their families, doctors, nurses, and caregivers.
Ā 
For 28 years, Hyundai Hope On Wheels has contributed more than $300 million to childhood cancer research, advancing treatments that have helped save more than 40,000 kids.
Ā 
Today, their iconic handprint represents something even bigger: the Mark of a Warrior, a symbol of the courage inside every child fighting cancer.
Ā 
As a mom, this is a fight I’m incredibly passionate about supporting, and I’m proud to stand with Hyundai, these warriors, the medical teams caring for them, and the families fighting alongside them.
Ā 
Join the fight. Comment #HyundaiWarriors below, and @HyundaiUSA will donate $36 to @HyundaiHopeOnWheels for each qualifying participant, up to $500,000 through December 31, 2026.
Ā 
Let’s put childhood cancer on notice. šŸ–ļø
