Well hello there my dearest family! You are probably wondering why I
didn't send an email the other day. . . I was actually in Switzerland
the whole day at my conference! So we moved our p-day to today. I can't
believe that Bubba is growing up so fast.
That is honestly so crazy. Hahaha I loved that picture of dad, so so so
awesome. Caden needs a better haircut! Good old Brock, always such a
jokester.

That sounds great for Christmas, I loved the peanut butter, it was
very very good because they don't have that type of peanut butter here. .
. But I am good with whatever you want to send, any Christmas present
will make me happy.
Okay so you are probably wondering how my week was, it was such a
good one. This week our President gave us a schedule that we had to
follow that gave us things to study during the day and certain themes
throughout the day, for example one day we studied
about eternal families and we spent the whole day looking for families.
It was a lot of fun and we worked really really hard. At first we didn't
see much success though and it was kind of frustrating, but as we
continued to work hard and move forward in faith
we were able to find some amazing people and some of which we are going
to be teaching this week. At the end of the week we had not taught as
many people as we would have liked, but because we continued to work the
Lord showered us with old investigators and
this week we have a lot of RDV's set up.
We still have one investigator right now who has a baptismal date
set for the 30 of November so maybe with enough faith and prayer we are
going to see a baptism at the end of this transfer.

Okay so I have a really funny story for you this week. So, we were
over at a members house doing service for them. It was so awesome
because we were able to cut his grass, trim his bushes and do a lot of
awesome work that you don't normally get to do as
a missionary. So we were getting close to being done for the day and the
member that we were with had this really nice extension cord. . . One
thing that you need to know it that here in France you cannot find nice
working equipment. . . that cord was one of
a kind. So I am just trimming up all of the bushes when the member turns
to me and says you are doing a good job, just make sure that you do not
cut my new cord. I kinda started laughing because I had gone the whole
day without a problem, but I said don't worry
I wont cut the cord. . . I think you can probably guess what happened
next. Yeah, I cut the cord.
Ahhhh it was so terrible. I felt absolutely horrible. The machine
immediately stopped and I said, oh no, Brother Jardin, you are going to
kill me. He was like, oh no, did you cut the cord? I responded, Yes, I
am so sorry. Where can I find a new one to
pay you back. He of course said that there is no way I would be paying
him back for that, but I kept probing him and asking please, where can I
find a new cord to replace the one that I broke. . . Finally he told me
that the cord I cut was really expensive
and that it can only be ordered haha, he still wont let me replace his
industrial cord that I cut, but don't worry he said it was no big deal
at all and that he still loves the missionaries. It was horrible, I told
him it was his fault though because he jinxed
me. . .
Another funny thing that happened was Elder Crawley gave himself an
interesting haircut this week. . . I will send you some pictures so
that you know what I am talking about hahahahahaha.

Anyways, life is great right now. I feel so blessed to be out
serving the Lord and I know that the things that Derek said are so true.
If we allow our missions to do so they can change our lives and turn us
into the people that the Lord wants us to become.
Even though it is hard and disappointed sometimes when results are not
seen, I know that every time we push through a trial we come out
stronger and the Lord blesses us with more blessings than we can even
imagine. I love you all very much! Have a wonderful
week!
