Let me introduce myself

Well hey y'all! So first thing is first, my name is Elise and I am a 20-something living in the great city of Dallas, TX. I'm trying to make some changes in my life (I feel like that's the theme of being in your 20's) and I felt like blogging would be a great way to start.

So to put myself out there a bit, here are a few things you need to know about me:

1. I'm an only child and an only grandchild on one side

Ok so obvs this pic isOLD(senior year of college after a dance show). Both the 'rentals and I are a few years older now, but it's the rare picture of the three of us together. My parents have been divorced since I was a baby so we don't have "family" pics laying around.

2. I'm a dancer

This pic was taken when I was touring with a Disney show (yes I worked for the mouse, we'll get to that in a minute). My gubs (gay husband) and I decided we needed to practice our moves on the Golden Gate Bridge. BTW, no my leg is NOT bent here, it just looks that way thanks to my baggy sweats from Vickies.

I have danced since I was a wee little one and even went off to college and got a degree in Dance Management. I have since danced for an arena football team, directed my high school's dance team, danced on a Telemundo show, worked for THE Mouse, been a dancing Saloon Girl, and much more!

3. I worked for THE Mouse

When I first moved to L.A. I got a job dancing in the Christmas Parade at Disneyland. Little did I know that I would soon have a love affair with Disney! Soon after the holidays of '07 I received a contract to tour with Playhouse Disney Live. Our show toured England and Scotland for 2 months and then we loaded up on 4 tour buses and did a U.S. domestic tour. That's right, I lived on a tour bus and in hotel rooms for a year of my life!

There will be many more pics and updates soon but this is a good start.
