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!

And So It Begins...

If you know me, you probably know that I love a good adventure - and this is my latest one! I've always enjoyed writing and blogging, especially about things I have a passion for - and so I've decided to start doing it more regularly. The most important thing that everyone has said is, "write about something you love!" I've thought long and hard about what I love, and what I would love to write about, and this is what I have come up with: Photography, Music, Style, and Travel. I'm warning you now, though, that I'll most likely throw in a random blog about my nephews, a DIY project, or a great discovery I just HAVE to share with you - so be ready!

I really hope that you find something on this blog that you enjoy, and if you do please share it with your friends, family, and followers. I'm new to this, but I'm passionate about it, and I am hopeful about where this could potentially take me.

Thank you for your feedback, comments, and encouragement!
