i know i'm not quite caught up on my challenge posts yet, but i'm gonna take a break for now. be back soon :)

Challenge Day 20: Favorite Mother/Daughter Moment

I don't have a favorite moment, but Chloe and Christi's relationship is amazing and if I had a fave moment it'd probably be between the two of them.

Challenge Day 19: Favorite Episode Season 2

Brooke's Back is my favorite episode from Season 2. Brooke came back (obviously, lol) and I loved the dances this week.


Challenge Day 18: Favorite Episode Season 1

My favorite Season 1 episode is the first! The Competiton Begins! It was a start of what I say is a legacy :P

Challenge Day 17: Favorite Pyramid

Paige
Brooke     Chloe
Maddie     Nia     Mackenzie     Kendall

Challenge Day 16: Favorite Abby/Dancer Moment

When Mackenzie made Abby cry, it was pretty neat. It shows that anyone can make Abby proud.

Challenge Day 15: Favorite Costume

I don't think I have a favorite costume (singular), but here are som of my favorite costumes (plural):
Party Party Party
This is My Beauty
Avalanche

Trapped

Head Over Heels

Challenge Day 14: Favorite Group Dance (3/3)

My third favorite group dance is This is My Beauty. I don't really have an explanation for it but I really loved it.



Challenge Day 13: Favorite Group Dance (2/3)

Ups & Downs is another of my favorite group dances. It was so graceful and showed so much technique.



Challenge Day 12: Favorite Group Dance (1/3)

One of my favorite group dances is the very first one! Party Party Party! I love the dance and the song! That song is probably my favorite!

Challenge Day 11: Favorite Trio

My favorite trio also comes from Season 1, "I Want It". It's also known as "Pin-Up Girls", and is a dance by the original trio of Maddie, Chloe, and Paige.

Challenge Day 10: Favorite Duet

My favorite duet is with Maddie and Chloe, "Black Swan" from Season 1. It really told a story & was actually sort of like a dance battle in which Chloe came out on top!

Challenge Day 9: Favorite Kendall Solo

"Sweet Little Lies" is my favorite Kendall solo. No she didn't win for it, but she did a good job! Even with out an actual costume, made by mom or not, she looked perfectly fine when performing.



Challenge Day 8: Favorite Nia Solo

Even though she didn't win anything with this solo, "I'll Do Anything for You" is my favorite solo of Nia's. She worked so hard for this and she performed & looked beautiful with this dance.


Challenge Day 7: Favorite Mackenzie Solo

"The Party Starts Right Now" is my favorite Mackenzie solo. She danced wonderfully and enjoyed herself! She even won! All of her solos from Season 2 show her great improvement, but this one is my fave.

Challenge Day 6: Favorite Paige Solo

My favorite solo for Paige is "Make Some Noise". She did an awesome job performing it and she even won first place for it! Twice!

Did anyone else notice this?


For the dances "Fantastic" and "Nip and Tuck", pretty much the same costumes were used! So why did the episode with "Fantastic" in it get pulled, never to be seen again? You can clearly tell they are wearing clothing of some sort. Look at all the rhinestones!

So, anyone else think Season 2 Episode 9 should be aired again? Do you have an opinion on this? Let it be heard! Comment about it!

Challenge Day 5: Favorite Brooke Solo

My favorite Brooke solo is "Garden of Eden". Yes, it's another acro solo but I liked it. It kinda stood out for me.

Challenge Day 4: Favorite Chloe Solo


"Red Queen" is my favorite Chloe solo. She said she had been waiting for this solo and I could tell she loved it. She got to act inside her dancing, which she has said that she likes to do. She performed it beautifully and won 1st Place for it!! The only downside to this dance is the costume, Christi said it's 17 pieces!!! It's a pretty costume, but 17 pieces, really? lol

Challenge Day 3: Favorite Maddie Solo

My favorite Maddie solo would have to "Angel" from Season 1. This was a beautiful dance an it really had meaning to it. In my opinion, the costume, music, and dance all fit together wonderfully.


New Design!

As you can see, I changed the layout and design of the blog. I hope that it will be easier for you to read and enjoy now!

Challenge Day 2: Favorite Mom

My favorite mom on the show is Christi. She always stands up for what she thinks is right for Chloe and the other dancers. She's not afraid to voice her opinion. Also, she loves to see her daughter enjoy dancing and succeed with her dances.

Challenge Day 1: Favorite Dancer

Dance Moms Challenge Day 1: Favorite Dancer

My favorite dancer on the show would have to be Chloe! She is such an amazing dancer! She always puts her heart into her dancing and can really act while dancing. I think she is going to stick with dancing forever, no matter if its being a dancer or being a choreographer.

30 Day Challenge

I found this challenge online, and I am going to try and complete it! I will do all 30 days even if I can't post them every day. :)

Chloe's Solos

This is a video I made of all of Chloe's solos. It includes her solos from before Dance Moms as well as her solos from Seasons 1 & 2. The only solos I didn't include are "Watercolors Fade" and "Queen of Hearts" because I haven't been able to find pictures for them, but I'm looking!
