Weekly Features & Blog Awards!

Hi everyone, it’s Sunday again so that means it’s time for the weekly roundup and time for me to pass around a few blog awards! :)

Thank you to the following blogs for featuring me this past week!  So exciting!

Tatertots and Jello

Bargain Shopping Paradise

Woot woot!!

Now for the awards…

I received the Versatile Blogger Award from T-Bird at Nestled in Rosenberg.  Thank you T-Bird I love you!!  T-Bird is my Sister-in-Law people!  We live right by each other and she’s such a blessing, and has a great blog!

Before I can officially accept this award I have to list 7 things about me that you all may not know.

1. I am a makeup junkie (specifically Bare Minerals).

2. I think Cream of Mushroom soup makes everything taste better.

3. I like the way skunk smells.  Totally serious.

4. I also like the way perm smells.  What is wrong with me??

5. I was a paralegal for 8 years right out of high school.  Then I was able to quit and stay at home!

6. I LOVE playing tennis.  I played in jr. high and high school.  I hope to get back out on the court one day.

7. I am terrified of roaches.  I know I’ve said this before in a post, but I just had to make it known again.  TERRIFIED!

So there you have it!  Seven fun facts you may or may not have known about me. :)

Now I get to pass this award on to some other fabulous blogs.  If you haven’t been to their site go and check them out!

Red Letter Rising

Blue Artichoke Interiors

Impatiently Praying for Patience

Decorating Addiction

Going a Little Coastal

I am going to pass this award on to Nancy at Nancy’s Tidbits.  I love reading her blog and the great ideas she has, and she is just a kind-hearted person.  :)

So there you have it ladies!  Congratulations on your awards and now you get to pass them on to other fellow bloggers!

    Hey!
    Yea, I don’t typically do the award thing mainly because so many others don’t and it’s hard for me to pass them along. But how could I not accept that very sweet and kind award from you?!?! Thank you! I appreciate it so much!

    Hugs,
    Nancy

    Emily,
    Thanks so much for the sweet award. I will try to think of seven things people would want to know about me while I finish an outdoor bench makeover project this afternoon. You’re such a sweetheart!

    I thought I was the only one in the world who liked skunk smell. My family things I am off my rocker. Now at least I know I have company!

    Emily you have me laughing so hard at your cute answers. First about the smells and then the roaches. OMG! Me too! I am terrified as well. I think that is why I clean so much. Ewwww…just the thought of a roach makes me sick. I’m origionally from Florida and of course they are the size of small cars AND they fly. Ugh.

    Thank you for the precious award! You are very kind to have thought of me for it. I really appreciate it my friend.

    Have a wonderful night. ~Melissa :)

    • Decorchick! says

      June 27, 2010 at 11:55 pm

      HAHA, the size of small cars. Yep, that about sums it up. I guess that’s the size of them in our heads. They fly here too…ughh!!

      You are certainly welcome. It was my pleasure!!

  8. Melissa Miller says

    June 27, 2010 at 9:32 pm

    Thank you very much Emily! I really appreciate you thinking of me for this sweet award. You are very kind.

    I laughed out loud at your funny answers about the smells. I hear you about roaches. OMGoodness! Me too! I am terrified of them as well…Ugh.

  9. Amanda@The Hand Me Down House says

    June 28, 2010 at 7:52 am

    Awww — well thank you! That is just too sweet of you! I loved reading your random facts (although the skunk smell thing was a little weird!!) — I was a paralegal right out of HS for 5 years too — funny!

    Emily, Thank you so much for the award! I saw this late the other night and then forgot all about thanking so. So embarrassed! I am honored. You’re answers were so funny. But skunk? Really? We should call you Pepe Le Peu! Oh gosh, does anyone remember Pepe, or am I that old?? I’m right with you on the roaches thing. And I live in FL where they fly! Palmetto bugs really, but still!

    Suzanne had also send it to me so here are my answers if you care to take a look. http://goingalittlecoastal.blogspot.com/2010/05/id-like-to-thank-academy.html

      June 30, 2010 at 1:26 pm

      Anita no worries!! Yes, I know I am weird.

      Great, I’ll go take a looksy at your answers! :)

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.

Reel edit creds- @ellie_allison01 😘

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.❤️
