Good mommy or bad mommy? 🀣 Jax skipped school yesterday so he could watch his VERY FIRST concert ever (and it was in Lisbon) and it was no other than @dualipa πŸ”₯❀️ who he ABSOLUTELY LOVES (he knows practically all her songs and dances! πŸ˜…πŸ€©) Best of all, even with a sold-out show with 20K+ people, one of his former dance friends was literally in the row behind us!! … and his former dance teachers @_nicolathomas and @annikajthomas were there, too!! πŸ”₯πŸŽ‰πŸ©°πŸ•ΊπŸ½πŸŽ΅ Needless to say, Jax found it incredible! I think I made the right call - Dua Lipa is phenomenal! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯🎀🌟🌟🌟❀️❀️❀️
On Sunday, we celebrated our sweet friend Zelda’s 8th birthday with the most amazing party πŸŽ‚πŸŽ‰πŸ₯° and the theme was β€œRainbow Rocks” which is PERFECT for the start of #pridemonth πŸŒˆπŸ’•!

Happy International Dance Day (April 29)! In honor of this day, Jax performed in CASCA with his piece β€œOs LeΓ΅es” (The Lions) - all pieces choreographed and performed by the students themselves! πŸŽ‰πŸ”₯ They were all amazing! πŸ©°πŸ•ΊπŸ½πŸ’ƒπŸ» #internationaldanceday #dance #dancer #boydancer
