Tour De France But Elder Hays Was Moving

It's been a stress fully awesome week. By that I mean, it's been a stressful, difficult, and anxiety inducing week, but I'm having a terrible week in England, which makes it a pretty awesome week as well! (mom's note: we talked about this before he left - that some weeks would be more difficult than others, and I told him to remember when he's having a bad week, that he is having a bad week in ENGLAND, which means, he's still doing something pretty awesome and cool, and it makes bad weeks a little easier, to think about it that way - I'm including these photos of the Tour De France which went through his town last week)  :) 

We had to move flats this week, which has turned into probably the biggest NIGHTMARE you could ever imagine. The move has been pushed back for a few weeks now, but It finally happened this last weekend, and boy did it suck. The Mission office forgot it was happening, so we didn't get any help from them with the move. The tour DE France was that day, but we didn't get to see any of it because we were stuck hauling boxes, we had to tear apart Elder Schwarzkopf's bed because it wouldn't fit down the stairs, etc. etc. Pretty much Elder Schwarzkopf and I are tired, beat up, and bruised. 

However, the silver lining is that God's gonna bless us HUGE this week for doing it. I don't know how, I don't know when, but he always give us a helping hand after a trial, so that's something to look forward to this week! 

Counting my blessing though, I'm well fed, our Flat is bigger then the one we used to live in, I've lost some more weight, and I had a really great Sunday this week with church. So the positives outweigh the negatives! I should get hired to write inspirational greeting cards, I'd be so good at it! 

So, off the topic of me, and onto y'all. Jordan may be getting a chameleon ( I've heard there are some disagreements going on between Mum and George over this, and all I'll say is that God loves both of you...and he made Chameleons cool for a reason...he also said respect your parents...) I have no say on naming it, we all know I'm terrible at that. Maybe something British would be cool though (In my opinion). If it's a girl one you could name it Twiggy. Just a thought. 

I can't WAIT to hear what the sex of the baby is!!!! Someone send me a picture of Holden and Noelle, in every photo her tummy is blocked by someone else and I wanna see the bump!!!! 

Ok, the picture that Dad sent me of the Ha-boob definitely pulled a few heartstrings. I really miss Phoenix sunsets. They're so beautiful it's absolutely unreal. 

What's Dad's new car???????????? 

Not much else. I really don't think I can send photos this week, because I lost my USB cable in the move. Sorry! I'll replace it soon! 

Love you guys so much! Talk to you soon! Stay happy and Healthy! Just ask Mum for that quote from say anything about choosing to be happy if you ever feel down this week! 

(and even though he lost his cable to send photos, a nice woman friend requested me on facebook and sent this photo she took of Brennan at church)
