Wildwood

Dawne spent her last morning searching for houses in Wildwood. Her final wish was for us to move there, to be close to her father and the nursing home he was in. That is why Wildwood means so much to us. She always had such a beautiful heart, constantly thinking about how to care for the people she loved and how to keep our family together. This place will always hold a special piece of her spirit and her dream for us.

The stage design for the St. Paul show was absolutely unbelievable! There was this huge, beautiful archway that made it look like a classic theater, and right above it was a giant screen showing a close-up of Lady Gaga as she performed. When she walked down the long runway and stood right in the center with her arm up, it looked so powerful. Seeing this all in black and white makes it feel even more dramatic. Debuting "Runway" with Doechii on a stage like this was definitely a legendary moment.

I just saw Lady Gaga live in St. Paul on April 9th, 2026, and the show was absolutely incredible! She looked so cool on stage wearing a black crop top, a flowing skirt, and dark sunglasses. Her long blonde hair was flying everywhere while she danced. The crowd was going wild, and you could see thousands of phone lights shining in the dark arena behind her. The absolute best part of the night was when she surprised everyone and debuted her brand new song "Runway" that she made with Doechii. The energy in the room was through the roof. It was definitely a night I will never forget!

The last few months have been tough, but we are keeping our eyes on the goal. Major back surgery is coming up, so the doctor said the best thing to do is get my body ready by making my back and core as strong as possible. This is the hardest work I have ever had to do! It means lots of exercises I never did before, plus some light jogging with a lot of sweat! We have been hitting the local trails, and she has been right there with me every single step of the way, keeping me motivated. It isn't easy, but every day we get a little stronger, and that makes me feel more confident for what’s ahead.
