Kyleigh in Korea
mission update
week 68
Even though our investigator Betty is super busy with work and school she still wants to meet with us twice a week. The problem is she works on the weekends as well...so she can't come to church. She's talking to her boss to see if she can come into work a little later on Sundays so she can at least come to Sacrament Meeting. Pray for Betty! She is progressing well and wants to be baptized. We had set a date for Sept 11th for her baptism, but we need to push it back until she can get to church. I'm so thankful to be a part of her experience learning about the gospel. It's been awesome.
We went on two different exchanges this week. Had a great time with Sister Thornley!
I've saved the sad news till last... We had to say goodbye to the Needham's this weekend. Bro. Needham's job finished up. He was involved with a teaching program for the Navy. They are still in Korea, but in a city further South for another job. So Nana and Papa have left us. I feel like a big part of Dogye is now gone.
One more week of this transfer!
I'm doing good and I love you all so much!
Love,
Sister Cooper
xoxoxo
This is Betty!
Lunch with the cute young adult girls in our ward :)
Saying goodbye to the Needhams... :(

In other family news this week....
The football season is upon us and I couldn't be happier about that.
My Cougars took it down to the wire in dramatic fashion in the season opener at Arizona.
We came out victorious.
I died of glee.

Dinner Group Outing
Did you know Brick Oven has one of the best salad bars I've seen?
My eyes bugged out at it.

I had a birthday! :)
My Emmsie was up early in the 6 o 'clock hour doing the dirty dishes for me, making school lunches, made my breakfast, had my gift all wrapped and ready. Everyone needs a Emma in their household.
She takes birthdays seriously.
Lunch with friends..and Emma got to tag along ;)
I loved all the little birthday wishes that came sprinkling in throughout the day.
Whether it be a call, text, card, fb message, or a little gift left at the door....
Birthdays are the best!
More yummy food that night at the Food Trucks with the fam...minus Han who had to be at the Murray football game.
After wards we went to watch Hannah perform at halftime.
Poor Poppi getting an emergency Bishop phone call during our photo shoot.

Speaking of Hannie...we answered back her date for Homecoming.We followed up with a princess themed idea since that's how he asked her.
We sent him on a scavenger hunt with rhymed clues to several spots that have some type of meaning with the two of them or their friend group.
He started at his house where the first clue led him to the Seminary building...
They happen to have Seminary together.
Then it was off to the bike shop where he works...
we tied that clue in with their first date together which was mountain biking...
Third spot was one of their friend group hang outs..
Next was the theatre where they saw their first movie together...
I have to say Hannah has some awesome friends...At every spot there were several friends waiting to give Hayden his next clue.. They all joined in on the entourage up to the last destination, which was the castle State Capitol.
The last clue was found on the long flight of stairs that leads to the capitol...along with Cinderella's slipper. ;)
At the top.... the Prince and Cinderella... with her answer ...
{minus these three who were in hiding when the group arrived}
Emma was in charge of hiding behind these two so they didn't blow away in the wind. ;)
These guys were wigging out just trying to hide!
We fed them Krispy Kremes for helping and then they all went and hiked Ensign Peak.
Good times. Good times.

A trip to our favorite shop in Layton to dress shop with friends! So fun!
So far Hannah and I are batting zero......still looking!!!

Can I just say my morning school drop off's the past two and half weeks have made my heart smile.
Kate insists I wait until her class walks into the building before I leave.
While waiting we wave back in forth and blow kisses like fifty billion times.
I'm sure anyone watching is thinking what the heck?...haha
But I don't care...I'm gonna soak it up!
Her best friend...who is in another class {darn it} wrote her the cutest note the other day thanking her for being her best friend. They meet up at recess to talk.
So so cute!
*****
Dance started back up this week for Kate and Brie.
Brie is now a Junior Starlette so she dances twice a week.
Tap and jazz one night, ballet the other.
Her ballet teacher is one of Kyleigh's best friends!!!
She's a modern dance major. She's a phenomenal choreographer.
*****Some Labor Day fun!
In and Out has a "not so secret menu" and you can order your hamburger protein style...wrapped in lettuce instead of a bun.
The girls and I went to see this!
Wowie Wow Wow. BEAUTIFUL movie. But heart wrenching!
Take some tissues.
