I have watched my friends/family participate in Dancing With the Stars over the years and they've said that it is life changing experience and so much fun! I opened a fortune cookie years ago and it stuck..."now is the time to try something new!"...well this is new! Very new! I love the arts. I grew up trying lots of different activities, dance, piano, cheerleading, singing etc. Stage fright has always held me back. I haven't done this type of thing before and would love to do something for myself! It's a wonderful opportunity to raise money for a great cause, have fun and overcome some stage fright that I've had since I was a kid! I also want to show my three kid's that it's ok to do something scary and it's better to try than not at all! I can't wait!
