Hey Guys   I had an awesome time last night!!! It started out with my hubby and I going to a nice dinner.....it was nice to have a time for the two of us to relax with no kids....lol......then we headed to the theater....It was at the smaller older theater here, not the bigger one it's usually at....I think that may be because there was another show already booked there.....but anyway.....it was a sold out crowd.....I mean it was tight in that theater and no center isles....as we were waiting, we were looking at my program and I was telling my hubby who some of the dancers were......then I pointed at Vals pic and said "and of course you know that's Val".....and he goes "WAIT,  Val's a guy???".......I mean ....has he not been listening for the last , what, almost 5 yrs!! LOL...it took this long for him to have that epiphany.....LOL....and HE bought the MVP tickets.......LOL......turns out when we (Niecey and I) were saying Maks and Val, he thought we were referring to PETA..... LOL!!! He thought Petas name was VAL!!!!!!!!.......I may be slightly annoyed with him for that...LOL....so after I set him straight and gave him a quick DWTS lesson...lol.....we went in and got our seats.....we had a good view of the stage......I was kind of surprised at how minimal the set was.....it was like an upper level and lower level and staircase they danced up and down.....but then was mostly videos on the screen as far as props went.......but there were some props.....at the beginning Val and Joe came out to hype up the crowd and everyone screamed but then Val yelled out "make some noise JACKSONVILLE!!!!"......people laughed and he looked really confused until Joe said "Val, we're in Orlando"....LOL.....Val dropped to his knees laughing and the crowd cracked up....he was obviously embarrassed but apologized nicely and explained sometimes on tour you forget where you are.....it was really amazing seeing the people we see on tv dancing live.....if you guys ever get the chance it is WELL worth seeing the tour.......seeing them dance live gave me a new perspective on them.....Jenna and Hailey could occasionally be hard to tell apart to me.....except when Val was on stage.....LOL......that guy is so smitten....LOL....he couldn't seem to resist sneaking in head kisses or little shoulder or back touches whenever she passed him.....LOL......Witney is AMAZING live.....they are all awesome dancers....Alan had a lot of personality as did Brandon.....I have to say Artem and Gleb were to me anyway, soooooo much more AWESOME live than they sometimes are on tv......and ANNIE.....YES!! Gleb is just as good looking in person!!! LOL!!  I was really impressed with Brittany....she was really good and after seeing her live I'd love to see them give her a shot at pro.....she really shined on stage......Joe really can't dance....LOL....Sasha to me (my opinion only) comes across better on TV than live.....(Witney referred to him as a popcorn shrimp...lol) .....Emma was really good too.....she seems just as sweet as on tv and of course Val was AMAZING!! (When he remembers what city he's in....LOL)  I loved the dance he and Jenna did....it was beautiful   Didn't get to meet any of them but just seeing them dance was a special night ....and given a chance I would do it again!!! As we were watching the show I thought about you guys and how we were all together because of this show and the people on that stage and what we've all been through together and got a little emotional .....it was a powerful, full circle moment for me .....we had a blast and my hubby now knows Val is NOT a girl.....and Maks is married to PETA, not VAL.....LOL!!!LOL!!!! ....STILL can't get over that one.....LOL!!!.....it still cracks me up....LOL!!!!......me and the DWTS people are all back in Jax, .....LOL...(they're performing here tonight ).....I'm getting the kids settled down with dinner so need to run.....talk to you all soon(((group hugs)))

 A Valentine’s day celebration with...*drum roll*....Val(entin)!!!!!!!!!!!!  LOL. LOL. I wonder if April told hubby his full name!!!!!  LOL. Could go either way!!  We have an Argentinian friend whose granddaughter is Maria Valentina and they just call her by her middle name, which is kind’ve traditional for the culture when “Mary” or “Maria” is the first name.
