Jennie Garth may have come in fourth during her stint on season five of Dancing With the Stars, but that doesn't mean she still doesn't dream of bringing home the mirror ball trophy.

Read on for what the 90210 alum just told us about returning to the ballroom. Plus, does she think hubby—and Twilight star—Peter Facinelli is ready for his own pair of dancin' shoes?

Garth says she'd be up for an all-stars edition of Dancing With the Stars.

"Yeah, I'm always open to trying things," the mother of three exclusively told us while promoting Dove's Close-Up Challenge. "It's a lot of work, a lot of physically demanding work but I definitely had a great time doing it."

Garth says she hasn't kept up with dancing, but no matter. "I remember how much I love it," she said. "I went to my daughter's dance recital the other day and I just remembered how much I love dancing. So I'm going to try to figure a way to keep it in my life."

But will she be dragging in her husband to try his hand at hoofing?

"I don't think it's for him," Garth laughed. "I can't see him in the pants."

Now that Twilight is coming to an end, Garth would like to see Facinelli behind the camera some more. The two teamed earlier this year on the Hallmark Channel movie, Accidentally in Love, which starred Garth and also marked Facinelli's writing debut. He also coproduced the romantic comedy. "He's very good at being a producer, being a writer," Garth gushed. "I'm encouraging him to direct. I hope he wants to take that leap."

Too bad there are no more Twilight flicks for him to take a shot at.
