hello, i'm new here

Once again I'm giving it a shot. "It" being keeping a blog going for more than 2 posts at a time. My life (since I can remember) has been, busy— definitely an understatement—but now I feel I finally have some control of my time and where it's spent. So welcome, to my life, or at least the life I choose to share on social media.

A little about me:
I'm Sam, normally referred to as Sami Jo by Husband and friends, but I have never introduced myself as such.
I have been a dancer since always and currently perform with SoulEscape as well as teach and direct at Center Stage in Utah.
I recently graduated from BYU where I also spent 3 years dancing as a Cougarette.
I grew up in Utah, with the fittest mom on the planet and the coolest dad you ever did meet. I have 2 sisters and yes, I may suffer from middle-child-syndrome, but only when I recognize how much cooler they really are than me.
Husband is Jesse, middle name Hart (cue title inspiration). He's a Singer/Songwriter and has a band called Static Waves. He's that guy who is constantly making people laugh and truly has made me smile every day I've known him—going on 3 years wedded, whoa baby.

Pup is Julian. A border collie/black lab mix, most commonly called Hooli, he is a handful but we can't seem to get rid of him. He thinks he's a human and I think we do as well.

This blog will be about our lives, mostly mine I guess. In all my 24 years of learning the ropes, truth is you never have things as "down pat" as you think you might, there is always so much more to learn and grow from, so I thought we could do this somewhat together. I'll probably be talking about most of the things I think about on a daily basis: family, dance, fitness, food and maybe music if Jess wants to chime in every once in awhile.
What is a blog without a few outsider's opinions? I will definitely be seeking advice from people willing to give it, Q&A style and more!

Thanks for joining in.
