The latest...

Here is Jayden's latest email. He still sounds so amazingly good! "So this week was interesting. Kind of crappy in terms of missionary work. So I had my first zone conference on Monday, luckily I wasn't called to give a talk randomly, but I was called to say a prayer haha. We had that in Yuba city where Elder Call is serving, so I got to talk to him which was awesome. A Buffalo Wild Wings just opened up in Chico last week so elder Ross and I went with another district in our zone there. We didn't go with ours because our district is kind of lame so we hang out with theirs. We have been kind of hanging out with them because Elder Gentry from their district leaves today! So we had a pool tournament and stuff. Oh and I forgot, on the way to Buffalo Wild Wings, our car started freaking out. We were on the highway, and our car started beeping like crazy, we thought we were gonna blow up! Our engine had overheated really bad, so we drove slowly to pep boys, because if we drove to fast it would overheat. It overheated a couple of times so we would have to stop the car and sit and wait for it to cool off. And it sucked because it was so hot and we couldn't have the AC on or it would overheat. So we got it to pep boys and I guess our radiator wasn't on all the way. During zone conference, they check our cars and they didn't screw on our radiator all the way so I was kind of pissed. All our coolant spilled out. So they fixed it, but it took them a few days. And you should be so proud of me! When they check our cars at zone conference, they make people stay and clean their cars and the inspector has to talk to them and tell them what they need to fix or clean, and we were they only ones who were free to go right away because it was so clean and everything was working! Haha. So anyways, since it took Pep boys a couple of days to fix, Elder Burdette and Briggs (our zone leaders) drove us around. They are really awesome, me and elder Ross actually hang out with them a lot. We slept at their house while our car was being fixed. It was fun because we just played uno and stuff. Oh, and Elder Burdette lives in the same neighborhood as grandma and grandpa Garmire! So that's crazy! So we got our car and a bunch of investigators cancelled on us. So nothing really too good in terms of missionary work happened this week. We got a lady to go to church which was cool, but she cancelled last minute "because she didn't have any cash" so whatever haha. We still got 3 other investigators to come to church! So that was good. Our ward mission leader was pissed at us because our numbers sucked this week, but it was because our car broke and we had zone conference and everyone cancelled! He just got called to be mission leader and he's really crazy about it. He was AP on his mission and he basically says his mission was way harder and better than ours and he assigns us all these dumb things! Anyways, last night, the lady who we share the house with said she is going out of town, so she asked if we could take care of her dog. So we let her chill with us haha. So pretty fun week this week haha. Hope you guys are doing good! Miss you all like crazy! Love you!!! elder Jaydawg" Man, I love that boy so much! I miss him more than I can say but so glad he is having fun and enjoying this time of his life!
