A little update

2009-05-09T21:18:00.000-07:00

Things have been very busy lately. The picture of me in the black dress is at Las Vegas Arthur Murray Competition. It was a great event where Richard & I took 4th place in the Pro-Rising Star American Rhythm event. The picture of the three girls, is two of my coworkers, Jennifer & Jennie and me. We were enjoying Jennifer's son's 3rd birthday at Sea World. The Group picture was a fun event in Cancun. We didn't place, but we had a wonderful time meeting new people and enjoying the beach. The past couple months have been a lot of fun with competitions. This last week I found out I have water on my Abdomen (called Ascites.... they told me they don't understand why I have it, because this is something common in alcoholics who have liver damage. Coming from someone who hasn't had a drink) and have some more testing to find out why. That is a short recap of my life lately. I have another competition coming up if my health is better, so we will see. I have thoroughly enjoyed having my sister and her family living with me. I don't know what I would do without her, she has taken care of me during my illnesses! (Thanks Tash)

Sisters!!

2009-01-23T00:47:00.000-08:00

I just wanted to let the whole world know how much i love my sisters!!! They are awesome! They came and supported me last year in my time of need and I don't think that i got to thank them properly! THANK YOU!!! :) We had a blast and remembered how much fun we have together! (We also remember that we should do that more often ~ don't forget)! Thanks Leena, Steph, & Tash! I love you all!

Another picture :D... Richard & Holly

2009-01-07T21:29:00.001-08:00

This was at the show.... One of my students took this and sent it to me today! :)

Dancing with the Stars Tour!

2009-01-06T23:23:00.000-08:00

This was such a fun event! There were thousands of people and I wasn't really nervous at all! The first two rounds were held before the show even started. All The couples did the Cha Cha and then the judge called back 5. The 5 couples are in the picture. She then called back the top two couples. David & Jennie and Richard & me! We each got to dance one dance at the beginning of the 2nd half of the show. Richard & I did our cha cha to live music! It was incredible! The very last part of our routine went into a dip and the band hit the end right on it! Then after, the audience texted in who they wanted to win! And we Won!!!! 73% of the audience voted for us! We won a trophy and samsung eternity phones! Just to be able to be on the floor was very exciting! Overall the show was fun and high energy! Toni Braxton sang a couple of her songs. The other stars that were there were: Lance Bass, Maurice Greene, and there was one more whom I can't remember her name. We got to sit down on the floor at the tables you see in the picture! Like I said, Incredible! :) (oh and by the way that is my costume up close and as soon as I get a picture with Richard and the trophy I will post it.)

Christmas Time

2008-12-30T22:55:00.000-08:00

I sure loved being home for the Holidays! It was such a wonderful experience! I was reminded how blessed I am to have such a great family! I was sad that my sister Natasha couldn't be there, but we kept in touch by phone or comp. I enjoyed cross-country skiing in my back yard, watching movies, shopping with my sister Steph, and seeing all my wonderful nieces and one nephew. It made me realize how much I miss family! It was such a wonderful experience and look forward to more family time in the future!

My Birthday

2008-12-15T10:48:00.000-08:00

John & Me. He took me out on the town for my birthday! We had a blast and ate a bunch of food I shouldn't be eating. Very bad for me .... lol oh well I will work it off later! I can't believe it's my birthday, time flies. Of course I never thought my circumstances would be what they are, but I am slowly healing and moving forward. Thanks to all for your love and support! Your great!

Hope you enjoy watching the dance with my friend/coworker. We put the routine together for a party in 2 days :) and performed it December 12th. I haven't posted a lot because I have been super busy at work! I am now looking forward to going home for the holidays. It will be very nice to have vacation and see family and friends! Hope all is well with everyone!

Yesterday I went to Jennie's and we carved pumpkins! It was a lot of fun! I haven't done that for like 8 years.... brought back a lot of memories. :) Everyone did a great job! After we watched Ghostbusters. :)

Jenny & me :)

2008-10-12T14:53:00.000-07:00

Have a wonderful day!

Twins!!!

2008-09-17T23:35:00.000-07:00

This is one of my dear students Shannon! She is an amazing person and wonderful dancer! On her last lesson (without planning of course) we were wearing pretty much the same thing! We got a big kick out of it and decided we must take a picture! I Think we are pretty cute, don't you?

My Girls

2008-09-15T19:31:00.000-07:00

These are my two girls! Sabrina & Sindy. They are both so much fun and have such different personalities. I wouldn't know what to do without them! Sabrina is the chiweeny and is full of a lot of energy. She always has to be playing and needs constant attention. If she is in trouble, she is on her back looking really innocent. Sindy, on the other hand, is miss priss! She is a little princess and should be treated as such! They are both momma's girl's :). I love them both!

Me and my shadow!

2008-09-13T10:47:00.000-07:00

This was at night on the cruise. That is really my shadow! :)

Well, my divorce is official. Pretty crazy. 7 1/2 years of marriage and now its over. It will take a while before I think it really sinks in. But, I am ready to move on! Thank you all for your support! Love ya!

Somewhere in the Gulf

2008-09-08T22:26:00.000-07:00

These were the waves made by the ship! The water was over 4,ooo feet deep! It was such a beautiful blue! It was crazy to just look out and see ocean. You had so much to do inside the ship that you would forget that you were even on the water. It was a great experience, hopefully next time we can actually "go somewhere". :)

Holly & Co-Workers

2008-09-08T20:25:00.000-07:00

My co-workers and me on our "cruise to nowhere" on the ecstasy. This was our formal night of "meet the captain". Throughout our cruise we enjoyed sunbathing, playing volleyball, playing basketball, and of course dancing (oh ya and lots of eating)! It was a lot of fun!

2008-09-07T13:18:00.000-07:00

John (my coworker) & me sunbathing on

Galveston beach.

We enjoyed the winds from hurricane Gustav. It made the sun more bearable and the waves quite big!
