A Happy 3 Years and a Look Back

First off happy Memorial Day everyone! Last week marked my blogiversary of 3 years! Crazy how time flies and how there is so much work still left to be done to our home. You’d think that after writing about it for 3 years now that I’d run out of stuff to talk about and there’d be nothing left to do. So not true. These three years of blogging have been truly amazing. I am beyond blessed and don’t take any single day for granted.

As you can imagine, a lot has changed in these past 3 years! Most of all, my style. Oh heavens, my style. I thought of 2 rooms that have changed the most, and they are pretty dramatic. Most all of the rooms have changed and are dramatic, but there’s just something about these in particular.

First up, this old thing…

faux paint

Then it got better and it went to this.

Red Dining Room

And then I ditched the dining all together and made it an office. Best decision ever.

See, dramatic. We do it big down in Texas. :)

Then, the living room.

Started out as this…

Beige Living Room

Then this…

Camel Walls

And is now currently like this.

Living Room Molding

See, crazy different huh? I slowly phased out the golds reds and went with soft greys & greiges, and accented with pretty pops of color. I am so glad I did because I can decorate with pretty much any color I want to now since I have a good neutral backdrop.

I invite you to take the tour of our home (tab on the navigation bar) to see more of how our home has changed, and of course to see more room makeovers. I update that tab with a new makeover once I write about it. You can find sources for anything under those posts as well such as paint colors etc.

I look forward to many more years with you all and there’s plenty more projects and decorating to come! Thank you to my loyal readers who have been with me from the beginning, and thank you to my new readers–I hope you enjoy what you see and I look forward to connecting with you all! :)

xxoo,

Decorchick!

This is what happens when you go to the neighborho This is what happens when you go to the neighborhood petting zoo at Christmas to see the baby goats.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤪

2 labradoodle puppies were NOT on my 2026 vision board, but here we are.🥰

How could you NOT with these gorgeous colorings?! A red and blue Merle are so unique, and they are the sweetest!🐶🐶

It was my first time going with Randy to one of hi It was my first time going with Randy to one of his gigs. This wasn’t just any gig though. It was a very special wedding for a beautiful couple.❤️

And after witnessing firsthand what all he does for events like this, I have a new appreciation for what he does because it is a LOT.🤯

From loading in setting up three PA systems in 3 separate areas, then immediately switching gears to performance mode and playing ceremony music + sax, dinner music + MC’ing, then reception DJ’ing + sax. It was really pretty freaking mind-blowing to be honest. And then you have to tear it all down! Talk about a full day (I felt hungover the next day and I don’t even drink), but if you are in the entertainment business you get it. And he does this multiple times a month!

So many moving parts, and being flexible when you need to switch gears at the last minute, and he handles it with so much ease. That’s why he’s the professional at his craft.🫶

I was just there more as his emotional support person, but would love to do more events with him where I’m actually useful. 🤪Maybe I’ll learn to wrap up cords the right way one day to his liking, but that’s doubtful. 🤣

It was the perfect new year’s day and can’t wait to do it again!❤️

Congrats @claudine.said and @chefaustinsimmons it was a JOY witnessing your special day.

3 years without Daddy and Pawpaw💔 Does life mo 3 years without Daddy and Pawpaw💔

Does life move on? 

Yes, but not without a hazy fog lingering over you that never fully lifts.

Not without the deep ache in your heart longing for more time.

Not without reaching for your phone wanting to call or text.

Not without the family gatherings knowing someone is missing, even though no one mentions it.

Not without crying when you think of him or look at old photos.

I still cannot talk about him without tearing up. Certain songs or sayings break me.

After losing a parent, everything looks different. Time with your family begins to feel more intentional, because you want the moments to last.

The hustle feels less important, because you realize your people matter more than any dollar amount.

Grief and gratitude can coexist. It’s okay to be sad, and it’s okay to be thankful for a dad who is worth missing.❤️
