Heath received his mission call!



Family who came.

Friends from the ward.


Some friends from school(Basha High School)





Here are some pictures of family and friends
who supported Grant and Heath on their
special day.







We had anxiously been waiting for Heath's missionary packet.
We were going to the mail like "clock work"same time, same place,
everyday! On Wednesday, January 30 Heath's Grandpa Greer,
knocked on the door with a big smile on his face and said
"I have a big white envelope" for Elder Heath Philip
Farnsworth! Heath Comes in takes the packet from Grandpa
and begins feeling and trying to peek in it. I grabbed it from
Heath saying again "No not yet" Lets call family and friends for
the big OPENING! Soo ,once again our wonderful family and
friends headed back out to the Farnsworth's so Heath could
open his missionary packet. Everyone took a piece of paper
and wrote down where they thought Heath would be serving
his mission. Brother Curt Holbrook had said "Heath you will
be serving in Argentina. As Heath opened his packet another
"HUSH came over the room. You could hear a pin drop.
Heath then read "You have been called to the Argentina, Neuguen
mission! Spanish Speaking. Wow, Brother Holbrook was right!! Heath
will report to the MTC April 16, 2008
Our two sons will be serving the Lord
at opposite ends of the world! How proud we are of them.
They will be wonderful missionaries!

Grant received his mission call!







On Wed. January 23, 2008 I headed for the mailbox
as I usually do. I brought out a big white envelope
that said Elder Grant Edward Farnsworth. Wow,
I was so excited but feeling emotional that Grant
was going to be on a mission serving the Lord. As
a little boy he has always wanted to be a missionary.
I headed home as fast as I could opened the door
saying "Grant guess what I have?" he came in
grabbed it from me and said "I am opening it now"
with a big smile! I said "no not yet". We need to
call our family and friends to take part on the
OPENING of your call. We had wonderful support
from family and friends. Grant opened his packet
at 7:00 p.m. There was a HUSH in the crowd as
Grant said You are assigned to the Baltic Mission!
I said "Where is the Baltic?" He continued
telling us that it is in Eastern Europe. He will
be serving in Latvia but the mission also includes
Estonia and Lithuania. He will be learning the
Latvian language. We have spent a lot of time on
the internet. Grant is excited to serve and reports
to the MTC on Wed. March 12, 2008.

Our First Grandchild! Kelsie Ann Farnsworth


On February 10th 2008 Lori was at the hospital in labor!!
David and I were asked to speak in sacrament! My heart &
mind were definately at the hospital with Trevor and Lori
But....we were trying to be obedient to the Bishop. As soon
as our talks were done we ran as quickly as we could to the
car and headed to the hospital! We were so excited to meet
our sweet grand daughter! She weighed 5lbs. 11oz. and was
19 inches long.
We just love her and enjoy being grandparents!
