Well, we didn't win. And that's ok, because my mommy and my mommy-in-law both said we were the best and most beautiful :)
Seriously, the competition was fun and although we were disappointed, it's not like it was for a million dollars or something. At least we did our best and didn't screw up! Plus, the winner was the owner of our dance studio, so, it's not like he isn't awesome and deserving...Yay, Paul!
Now, for the dirt...
Fabian Sanchez, World Mambo Champion, of whom I already was a fan, was the host of the tour this year, and is also a Fred Astaire studio owner. So, since he knew several of our group, he talked with us before the show, introduced us to Marlee Matlin, and gave us backstage passes to meet the stars afterward. We were so excited! It made the loss seem like no big deal- at least I got to meet Edyta!!
Well, after waiting for 45 minutes in the room we were escorted to, Fabian shows up and sheepishly informs us that everyone is already on the bus and will not be coming in to meet us!!! This was not his fault, I know, and he was so sweet to all of us and was obviously embarrassed.
I am trying not to have a bad attitude, but.. it isn't working!!!! Do they seriously think they are too important to spend 5 minutes with people who respect and admire them, who were willing to wait for nearly an hour just to see them? Not to mention the fact that they put their colleague in a position of embarrassment. Not ONE of them could be bothered to come shake a hand or take a picture??? I think maybe some people are getting too big for their britches.
I will still watch the show, but I will from now on vote for Fabian, no matter what!
I am waiting for pictures with me and Barry- I'll post them soon!

I am glad that you had a good time this year. That wasn't very nice of the dancers.
They should be ashamed of the way they treated you all. You and Barry danced your best and were great! You looked beautiful as usual. We all were so proud of you both.We love you, mama
I know You both were so awesome! Of course you looked beautiful!
Sorry those "people" acted the way they did. Soon they will be nobody and will wonder why we don't care!! I did't see the dance but I know you and Barry should have won!
