her name-- kelsey berreth. more than a week after that thanksgiving day, kelsey's mom cheryl was home in idaho with a nagging feeling. she'd last spoken to her daughter on the phone thanksgiving morning. kelsey was preparing to have dinner with her fiance, patrick frazee, and their daughter kaylee. small talk, basically. she'd fix kaylee cinnamon rolls, celebrate thanksgiving. and kaylee didn't like them. she wanted the honey nut cheerios. andrea canning (voiceover): two days after that, cheryl received a text from kelsey's phone saying, i'll call you tomorrow. but kelsey didn't call. at first, that wasn't surprising. kelsey juggled motherhood as well as looking for a home so she and patrick, who lived on a ranch with his mom, could move in together. she also had a demanding job as a flight instructor. she's a busy lady. she works long shifts. she spends a lot of time with kaylee. it takes a lot to be a mom, a working mom. andrea canning (voiceover): still, kelsey rarely went this long without calling. so after
