April 1st 2013

Hey mom and dad,
Happy easter to you too!!! Sunday was actually really fun, I had a great time! In the morning some members invited us over for a brunch, we had lots of food and then they had us do an easter egg hunt..haha. haven't done that in a while. Then after our wonderful church meeting we had dinner, which was also really good. So no complaints for me! It was great. Was it a good fast and testimony meeting for you? for us our fast and testimony got moved until after conference.
My new companions pretty good, he's been out about 11months and seems to be a hard worker...which is refreshing.
Oh great...I get to speak..haha. do you know what my topic's supposed to be? its weird to think thats around the corner..I should probably shut my brain off now. haha. I don't want to be distracted...I'd say i'm doing pretty well at that though. Still getting work done.
So what are you guys gonna do for spring break? just watch movies...or something fun?(as in..outside the house)
whatever you do i'm sure it'll be great.
The youth in our ward just got back from their pioneer trek so that seems to be the typical spring break story now.
Anyway, as for me i'm doing great...couldn't be better!!
Take care...and have a wonderful week! Love Elder Farnsworth

Hey mom and dad,
How's it going? I have yet to receive a hug from the adams, I think they're still out of town...
As for yorba linda, its not in our boundaries... and if it was in the past it definitely won't be now. The areas are all shrinking. Sisters are even starting to be put on bike. We just had transfers this weekend, I just got a third companion...his names elder passey and he's from richland washington..
I remember helping out with the life of christ event!!! It was pretty fun actually, good times...I hope keith enjoyed himself. Are you guys having spring break yet? Most the shcools out here will be off for the next two weeks..
I'm glad to hear josh was able to report how his mission was despite the move, I hope he's doing well :)
I'm gonna need to get katy's address now..chile should be fun!
Tell andrew I look forward to seeing him!! And I'll be waiting for the letter.
As for the byui stuff...personally I just want to be as prepared as possible for school so I don't have to worry, so whatever that entails would be helpful. I want to try my best to avoid getting into debt.
BUt yeah, I'm doing okay...still looking for people to teach, but I know something will come soon. Oh and the baptism was good too...in case you wanted to know..
Have a good week. Love, Elder Farnsworth

hey mom and dad,
Good to hear you met the Adams, they really are great! I'll be looking for that hug..haha.
I hope dad can get that new shift, it would be a bummer to see that he couldn't bowl anymore...have you gotten any new bowling balls lately?? Or does dads ball still smell like black cherry?? I wouldn't mind having one of those...
Wow, its already track season! That pretty much slipped my mind...never thought that would happen. good thing we won!! Wouldn't want river to get prideful or anything. Haha. Cause we're the best!
HEy dad, Glad to hear you're enjoying the car...sounds like a sweet ride. Does that mean you're gonna give me  the rav 4?? haha. I could take it camping...and use it to woo the ladies at school...hah. just a thought. (this time I wouldn't forget about the oil). If you still see the "College Kids" tell em I say hi!
I can't believe the ricks kids are getting old...time just doesn't seem to slow down these days.
As for my password...I have no idea...I think I still need to make one...this would sure be easier if I didn't have time restrictions...oh well, I'll figure something out. I'm sure they'll have simpathy for an RM anyway.
As for the work here, I'm enjoying it...Ofcourse I have my ups and downs here and there..but overall its been pretty good..To answer dads question...my bikes still broken...so i'm using another bike..this bikes a character builder...It doesn't really change gears very well so the hill ride up never gets old. BUt hey, my legs are getting super buff. I had an interview with president last week, it was good, my next interview will be for my outgoing...thats weird to think about . So here's an interesting event...I was invited to go to a baptism in lake elsinore this weekend!! one of the people I found is finally gonna get baptized...so i'm excited about that...her names shelby sadlack...her parents were just baptized when I was in murrieta, and now its her turn. how exciting.
But yeah, thats about it for me...It was good hearing from you guys!! have a great week.
Love, Elder Farnsworth

March 11th 2013

Hey mom and dad,
It seems as though everyones getting injured!!! thats not good... at least they're still okay. I guess thats all we can ever hope for.
Yeah, its crazy its was pretty cool when I found out that The Adams were in this ward, they actually took us to the temple too...Its been fun. ABout the ward...I'm not sure what to say..its good. The people are great, many of them are active and the area we cover is one of the smallest in the stake. So when it comes to finding people to teach, our pool of investigators is kinda slim...we're still working on that. I live on a hillside...Each day we bike up the hill...and at night we come down the hill...haha. My legs are huge!  BUt yeah, thats the story!! Tell everyone I say hi!!
Love Elder Farnsworth
ps. That car sounds nice

March 4th 2013

Hey mom and dad,
So far so good...I'm enjoying my time here in corona. My bike recently got a little beat up...so i'm using another one...but the ward seems to be supportive. Its a very active area, lots of good people. There are many born again christians...the big chruch near by is called CROSS ROADS...missionaries call it the great and spacious building. haha. But good people. My companions a great guy...he's got high functioning asbergers so sometimes its a little frustrating because of his speech impediment, but that doesn't matter cuz he has a good spirit and he's a hard worker. Many people in the ward recognize the name farnsworth, they ask me about all these different people who live in california, washington, and Utah, soo...I just say"cool...we're probably related" haha. I'm not sure what else to say.
Thats exciting!!! Fast sundays are always better when the building is full and everyone goes up...I'm glad it was a good experience :)
Thats great to hear about Victor and Jodi...I always love hearing how they're doing. And I know victor was pretty excited about that, he'll do a good job.
Yes, for me I've met many great people out here...Every area I've served, I've gotten to know some really nice new faces. Its really cool when I can go to different gatherings of missionaries and know most of the people there...its just a big group of friends, last week I saw Elder Robertson...we got together with some other zones to play basketball and he was there. We talked for a while, it brought back memories!
Well, i'm glad that keith is excited about his work and the fact that they're giving dad some options at work is really a blessing too...I hope everything works out right with all of that.
BUt yeah, thats how things are for me, I'm still surviving!! The gospel is great and I really do enjoy sharing it.
Let me know what happens with dads work and whatever else is going on.. I love to know :)
ALright, I've gotta go now...Take Care...And have a good week! Love, Elder Farnsworth
