A Blogger Meetup

Over the weekend my friend Megan from Honey We’re Home hosted a little meet-up in Houston for local blogging gals to get together and hang out, eat, and shop!  It was so much fun.  It was like everyone had been friends for years which is always comforting.

Here’s the group of the girls.

Everyone was so nice and friendly and I loved them all!

The hostess with the mostess-Megan.

And the witty and beautiful Elz.  She and I have been twitter and blog buds for a while, so it was really nice to meet her in real life. I just loved her!

See how happy she looks?  And that’s only water she’s drinking.

More sweet friends (Elsa, Kristen, and Amanda) Elsa is my new BFF.  She just doesn’t know it yet.  I also sat by Cyndy (not pictured) and she drove 2 hours to come to this!  She’s as sweet as pie too and I really enjoyed chatting and learning more about her.

More lovely ladies, Breann and Lauren.

Emily and Susannah.

And just a chattin.

After lunch we all walked to Anthropologie.

Saw some fun knobs and I should have bought a few.

And cool light fixtures that were made out of cardboard.

And here are some happy shoppers, Nancy and Kristen.

After Anthro we walked to West Elm where I have never been and let’s just say it’s a good thing it’s not closer by me.  I did buy a few things which I’ll show you soon, but I really loved that store.

For another recap of the little adventure you can read Megan’s post with a full list of the attendees. I’ve discovered some great new blogs through this too!

Hopefully we can all get together soon and have another meet-up. There are some gals I didn’t get a chance to talk to very much because of my schedule and having to leave a little early, so I hope to do it again soon. Maybe some of y’all can come next time too? :)

xxoo,

Decorchick!

Hey, I’m Emily – and if it’s been a while, w Hey, I’m Emily – and if it’s been a while, welcome (back)!🤗

A lot has changed in the past few years—personally, emotionally, and spiritually. I’ve been through some heavy seasons… but I’ve also done a lot of healing, growing, and rebuilding.🙏

And now? I’m coming back to this space with intention.
Not to just “post content,” but to share what’s real. What’s working. What’s worth it.

So here’s what you’ll find here now:

• Wellness that feels good and fits into real life
• Fitness and strength-building (yep, I lift—and love it!)
• Little peeks into our new home and everyday life
• Beauty, inside and out
• And an opportunity to join me in a business that’s been a total blessing—and just might be for you too

This page has always been a part of me—many of you know me as DecorChick. That version of me is still here… it’s just evolving into something more.🥹

And if you’re curious about the thing that’s helped me feel better, have more energy, and create a new stream of income…

Drop “INFO” in the comments and I’ll send you the details + an invite to my private Facebook group!

So glad you’re here. Truly. Let’s grow together 💫

Getting stronger—inside and out!💪 I’m not Getting stronger—inside and out!💪

I’m not just building muscle—I’m building longevity.

There’s something powerful about moving heavy weight. It reminds me of what I’m capable of—not just physically, but mentally too.

Lifting weights isn’t just about aesthetics. For women, it’s essential. Here’s why:

1. It preserves bone density and helps prevent osteoporosis

💪As we age—especially post-menopause—our bone density naturally declines. Lifting weights helps slow or even reverse that loss, reducing the risk of fractures and improving long-term mobility.

2. It builds lean muscle and boosts metabolism

💪Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat, which means strength training supports fat loss and makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight without extreme dieting.

3. It reduces the risk of chronic diseases and supports long-term health

💪Lifting improves insulin sensitivity, lowers inflammation, and supports heart and brain health—helping reduce your risk of conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive decline.

If you’ve been thinking about starting your own strength journey—this is your sign. It’s never too late, and you don’t have to be perfect—just consistent.☺️

What’s something you’ve done lately that made you feel strong? Drop it below—I wanna cheer you on!🎉

6 years without alcohol. Honestly… still one of 6 years without alcohol.

Honestly… still one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.☺️

Not because I hit some big rock bottom. But because I wanted more — more peace, more clarity, more freedom to not let wine-o-clock dictate my life.🍷

Saying no to alcohol has allowed me to say YES to so many other things:

👫Deep, honest relationships
☀️Early mornings without regret
💕Trusting myself fully
🥹Feeling everything, numbing nothing
🙏And being so at peace in my own skin

If you’re sober, sober curious, or even just thinking about your relationship with alcohol — I’d love to hear your story. Share it in the comments or send me a message. You’re not alone!

Here’s to living fully, feeling everything, and having the ultimate FREEDOM!🙌

#6YearsSober #SoberCurious #alcoholfree
Today we celebrate the victory of life over death, Today we celebrate the victory of life over death, hope over despair, and love that knows no end. 💕May the joy of the risen Christ fill your heart and home with peace, purpose, and renewed faith. He is risen indeed!

Happy Resurrection Day!!
