Week of Austin's Birthday!

Dear Mom,

I have one baptism but it is planned for Andrew's birthday and not mine. But Stake Conference is on my birthday but sadly I have to sing...  Miah is still doing really well, and Rodney is doing great because his sister is back in Brownfield which is 4 hours away. Your prayers would be wonderful! Our baptism is for David Ferrar, a 60 year old man who is a member's roommate and says that he feels comfortable everytime that we teach him and that everything makes a lot of sense. He even decided to talk to his boss and get Sundays off of work now.

My new companion is Elder Gadd, my old Zone leader when I was in Spearman so I know him very well. He is from Sundance, Utah and he is a really obedient kid with a great sense of humor. His favorite movie is Zoolander haha. He has been out for 18 months now. I have been doing yoga since sophomore year of high school, It is a really relaxing but stretching workout. Bryson would like it a ton! A blue mat is not considered feminine...(I told him I was having a hard time finding a yoga mat with out a pretty design)And yes you do procrastinate, and it has been going on much too long ;)

I didn't really care about the Superbowl, I mean I would have liked the Seahawks to win but it didn't really affect me as it would have. I really like that quote, (one I sent from Pres. Monson on attitude) another scripture I like that relates to me is Ether 12:6 because of the trials of faith I have had these past few months and the miracles that come from them like the 2 baptisms I already have. If they weren't miracles then I am not sure what miracles are. Elder Shaw definitely would love to talk to you guys! He and I were allowed to contact each other nightly last transfer and it definitely was a blessing! I got Sadie's address and am e-mailing her. My Spanish is actually coming along really well, more so than if I was with a Spanish companion. Congratulations with quitting the job! Love you and I am excited to get my birthday present!

Love,

Elder Farley

Dear Dad,

I hope Bryson and Caden can work out their differences too!(Superbowl differences!) I am really happy that the location in Ogden is picking up! Hopefully, that has been my dream to see Bluebonnets on my mission so hopefully! Our district meetings are here in Pampa and our Zone Conferences are in Amarillo and our Zone Trainings are in Borger. We are allowed to go once a transfer but we can't get anyone to give us a ride! It is extremely frustrating. (Greg asked if they were able to attend the Temple in Lubbock)Tell Marley, Parker, and James to write me when they get back and tell me their testimonies, that would be great!

Love you,

Elder Farley
