THANKS!

I have received so much support from my friends and family. Thanks so much! I can't even begin to tell you how much it has ment to me. I am so greatful to have such wonderful people in my life.

I am leaving on Wednesday! That is so crazy! I can't believe that it is really here. But I think this will be my last post but hopefully someone in my family (maybe my mom or my sister in law) will keep this updated so you can all hear about my time as a missionary.... but I wont know about your lives so you should write me!

Called to Serve

On Wednesday June 23rd I received a large white envelope from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

As my family and friends were gathered I read:

Dear Sister Katie Jean Koford: You are herby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Tennessee Nashville Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months. You Should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday September 15, 2010...

I am so greatful for this opportunity that I have to serve. I pray that I will be able to find those that are looking for the gospel and answers in their life. I hope that I will be able to teach them about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I love the Lord and I am so happy to be sharing His gospel!

(and if anyone has any questions about my religion and what I am devoting 18 months of my life to sharing you can ask me!)

Classes are over!

This semester I had to do a lot of projects. One of my favorite projects I had to do was for my advanced sewing class (I love sewing!) I had to make a suit coat then design a skirt to go with it. The back is my favorite :D

I feel so professional

My Boyfriend!

I have a boyfriend Pretty exiting! We started dating about a week ago. His name is Harold. His favorite color is orange. He is so strong. I love going to the gym to watch him work out. We love swiming. This might be a promising relationship I think he might be perfect!

























ok ok.... so maybe i'm not dating anyone.... but my sister in law, Shell, found the perfect boy and since i'm lacking a boyfriend she set us up!













Even though he isn't real i still like him. He grew! and got really big muscles!

He is little

He grew

and he grew

OH look how cute!

i'm an aunt!

My sister in law Emily had a baby boy named Connor last tuesday. I got to see him for the first time on friday. He is so cute and little. He is so cuddly. I already miss not holding that cute little guy! One more month till I get to see him. Oh I love being an aunt! And I get to be an aunt again in August! I can't wait!

Suit Coat

I am currently in an advanced sewing class at Utah State. One of the projects was to make a tailored project. I made a suit coat, it will have a matching skirt (once I design it).

This project took so much time! I felt like I lived at the sewing lab. But I got it done!

Spring Break

Yeah its a little late to be writting about sping break... but is was so much fun! so i'm still going to write about it!

So Holly and I went to Disney land! The roads were kinda bad on the way down but the weather was amazing when we go to California. It was so nice being able to wear shorts. Most of our pictures together you can't see where we are... cuz we don't have a personal photographer to follow us around to take pictures (yet). Well I had a ton of fun and loved it!
