Week one

Umm ok I don't know how to explain what has happened. like im afraid of whats to come because im so happy right now. ahhh!! but this last week. Sis C is gone! Brewton Alabama! :\ so im in the groove of getting used to the new comp. Sis Ch. aka Christopherson. she is from casper Wyoming she has been out for 6 months, she just turned 20, she has a younger bro and sis. she is a convert, she was baptized when she was 15, her fam was part member, she came from Chipley where she has been her whole mission, she flys planes and loves to talk to everyone. we teach pretty well together so far. I talk too much though... eek! ive gotten in the habbit of just not assuming. and just doin! sis Ch is pretty sick though. w'ere super similar in a lot of ways haha kinda funny. ummm.. she has dirty blonde hair, my height a beautiful smile... ummm idk hahaha So the last few days with sis C were interesting, her runnin around packin. I sittin downstairs settin up apts for the weekend and such, sis C panicking cuz she's leavin, me sittin watchin her pack... hahaha she didn't tell anyone she was leaving so there were not any fams she really wanted to say peace to lol she can do what she wants :)

Well now that sis Ch is here all the things in which has happened in Niceville she doesn't know. lots of inside jokes with members that im tryin to fill her in on. I feel like im just shoving info at her! this week I am realizing how bad of a missionary I really am hahahahha like no structure in studies, never say things right, always say the strangest oddest things, give too much info when none was needed. idk im havin a companionship identity crisis? lol not sure what to say! its one of those things where you see a HUGE mess in a room and your like not sure where to start. and if you just attack it, nothing happens to it? lol its weird and frustrating.

BUT! we are having so much fun! like its.... fun!! yes we work hard and I know a lot more about the area then she does and im tryin to fill her in on everything. But its fun! like... im havin fun again! the world is brighter? hahaha all the members are like 'where is cooper?' I say ' brewton Alabama!' they say awe! she was the funniest! strangest sister ever!!' a few of the members have brought up things that she has done, and I just laugh hysterically because I know she does things like that. then some ask me if im happy she's gone. I never answer, i just say that i wont answer that. then one member was like, ok sis milne unplugged, what was it like? i said maybe when im not a missionary anymore! ya'll saw her, you were with her! haha she is absolutely brilliant! still blows my mind hahaha. im nervous on that part where people ask questions and make jokes etc. i don't agree and i just don't say anything lol thisll be fun!

I have just been praying that ill be able to be a good comp for sis Ch. that's for sure. on Friday we both woke up with stuffy noses, my cough got worse and so we're like NOOO! we cant get sick! so than it got worse :( so we bought a few cough drops and boxes of tissue today haha

We had some pretty sick lessons this week! Sis Suddeth. amazing woman. part member, her hubby is LA and they have 2 adorable kids. a 2 yr old and 3 month old. SO CUTE!! she wanted to take the lessons again right? so we finished the Restoration and the Plan of Salvation. this morning actually lol we taught the creation cuz we didn't and we went into the gift of the Holy Ghost. and she just eats it up. i love her the spirit is in their home! its amazing!!! we asked her if she''d  say the closing prayer. she started the prayer and just broke down crying! we didn't move. ok well i looked up to see if she was ok. but she just cried! and than the spirit got super thick!! she didn't know why she was cryin, she wants the gospel in her families lives so badly!  she said that they would read the BoM every night as a family. The Russell family knows her hubby, his pilot call sign is Chuggs. lol  so we're tryin to hook the two families up! this weekll be a good week for the suddeths! on sunday they are gaonna bless the baby, liberty. CUTE!  Than sis Diviney is back!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOHOOO!!! we taught her the first 1/2 of PoS! super powerful it was really cool to see how everything we were sayin didn't seem new to her. kinda like she already knew it.. huh funny how that happens #AWESOMELESSONS

Me and Sis Ch are still figurin out how to balance each other but its been pretty dagum good so far! Put your trustin the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. that is a true fact!! haha

LOVE
sis Milne
