Hiking Horsethief Falls |Colorado Beauty|

I had the awesome privilege of hiking up and around Horsethief Falls this past Saturday with a great friend and his family. Naturally, I took my camera, and I am really glad that I did! Here are a few shots from the day - hope you enjoy them!

Halo (Piano Intro) {{MUSIC}}

So this, my friends, is a video of me (gasp) playing the intro to the song Halo by Beyonce on the piano. Yeah, I pretty much just repeat my favorite part over and over, but the lighting was really pretty (even out of focus). Kind of artsy, kind of fun.


p.s. may I just say that I am SO excited for the weekend? Hope you guys have a great one!!

And We're Back

Hey All!

Sorry for being such an absentee blogger! I'd like to say life is going to become less crazy in the coming months - but trust me, it's just going to continue to be crazier and crazier! I'm making some pretty major changes in my life, and it's going to make the next few months/years pretty hectic. I'm excited about it all though, and once things become more "set in stone" I'll share my new adventures with all of you!

In the mean time, I've decided to change the way I do things with my blog. I have been writing on each of my pages (minus my ME page), and doing the random update (like this) on the main page. But I've decided I don't like that, so I'm going to change it. From now on, all of my posts will be here, on the main page - but you'll also be able to find the post on my pages. This way, there will be a little more organization, a little less scrolling, and hopefully more interaction between you and I.

Awesome, this is so much fun. Random tid bit of fun-Kortney-facts: I've been reading The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and I'm completely enthralled with it (which may or may not play in to the whole "absentee blogger" thing).  Anyway, if you're looking for a good read, pick up his series. Shout out to my awesome sister and brother-in-law for getting me the series for my 21st! You guys are THE best.

I've got so many blog ideas in my head, I'm really hoping to get them out of my head and on to the internet here pretty soon so hang in there with me.

Okay, that's all for now! Be back soon (hopefully)!

The Month of May

Oh, May... May is an incredibly full month in the Good household. The first two weeks are spent gearing up for the rest of what's to come, and then starting on the 14th - it explodes!

May 5th - Cinco de Mayo
May 14th - Westin (my nephew) turned 4!
May 18th - Westin's friend party (with about 60 of his closest friends haha)
May 19th - Westin's family party with our extended family
May 20th - We surprised my Mom for her birthday by kidnapping her and taking her to Denver for lunch and shopping.
May 22nd - Went out dancing with friends and at midnight got a drink for my 21st birthday
May 23rd - My parents 26th anniversary
May 23rd - My 21st birthday (my parents kidnapped me and surprised me by taking me to a wolf rescue - I was in heaven! haha)
May 24th - Drake's girlfriend graduated from high school
May 26th - My Aunt's birthday
May 27th - Memorial Day (went to Territory Days!)
May 29th - USAFA Graduation - bye bye friends - SO proud of you all!
May 31st - Kreg and Keleigh (brother-in-law & sister) celebrate their 5th wedding anniversary! 

Add work schedules, sports, and the occasional outing with friends and the month absolutely flies by at warp speed. So, naturally, I've got some catching up to do! Both blogging, with my etsy shop, AND with the rest of my life. Housework? What's that again?

Hopefully the rest of the summer will slow down a little bit (but I'm not holding my breath) and I'll finally get myself into a more regular schedule. Thanks for hanging in there while I was mostly absent!

I hope you've had a spectacular May, made memories that will last a lifetime, and tried something new. If not - there is always June!

Woops!

Time flies when you're having fun. And when you're super busy. I must apologize for my lack of updating the last few days, time truly got away from me this weekend.

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day - either as a Mother or celebrating one, or both! I'm truly blessed by some wonderful women in my life who are absolutely amazing role models for me for when I become a mother myself. So, a real quick shout out to my Mom, both of my Grandmothers, my Aunt Kristi, and my older sister Keleigh - thank you for the example you all are as mothers! There are so many other women who influence my life; these are just a few who have been beautiful examples of what a Mother should be.

I've discovered that trying to juggle three jobs and still have time for hobbies and must-dos (like laundry and cleaning bathrooms) is quite a challenge. You'd think I would have figured this out by now, but I always have a tendency to just try winging it first. Since it's become apparent that that will NOT work anymore, I will be spending the evening/morning making a schedule, and a new budget. Doesn't that sound like fun? ;) I'm actually a little bit excited about it, simply because I'm really trying to get organized. LIVE SIMPLY - that's my motto for life, but especially this year. I've been cleaning out and getting rid of things I don't need, and organizing my time will definitely make it easier to truly live simply. More on that later.


I've finally got my camera back in my possession (it has been hiding out at my sister and my mom's house recently) so get ready for some picture overload! New photos will be posted to my Photography page, AND I will finally get some outfits posted onto my style page. Yay!




Thanks for stopping by, please leave a comment below!! :)

New Listing: Venice, Italy - New Travel Blog: Florence, Italy

Hey there everybody!

Guess what I've been up to on my "day off?" Working. Of course, right? Good thing I love what I do! I've been working on new listings for Kalos Kanvases most of today, and yesterday I got my travel page updated with 10 Things To Do in Florence. I'm still having a couple of "issues" with my the comments sections, so if you're not able to leave a comment on my other pages, please feel free to leave them on my home page until I can get that adjusted.

Also - please check out my listings (old and new) on my Etsy shop, and let me know what you think! Feedback is HUGELY appreciated.



Style page updates coming soon!!
