What an amazing ten years! I moved to Los Angeles with Weslie, found love with Stephen, and we got married. We’ve traveled the world and made incredible memories through our work – especially with opportunities like ‘So You Think You Can Dance,’ ‘Hit the Floor,’ and ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ I also loved hosting ‘Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings,’ but the best part has been growing our family and having our wonderful children! #decade #newyearseve #funtolookback #life #love #experience #memories #newyork @sir_twitch_alot
