March Newsletter
To The People We Love Best In All The World!
Babies: Rhett and Mandy Stone's baby girl Alexandria Paige Stone was born on 9 February 2009 in Oregon. Camille visited with them in March and had a great time. She says the baby is very cute. That's a given!
Missionaries: Move over Devin, Garrett Jones received his mission call andwill be going to Washington D C. He is really excited!
Devin is still enjoying his mission - between bike jumps and wrecks and teaching! Devin you got your mouth and attitude from your Uncle Karl Czirr- you sound just like him!!! You'll go far with that.
Visitors: During the exact week of our training, Alicia was able to hitch a ride to Utah. It was heaven for Raph to be with his girls , McKenna and Sophie and it was really nice for all of us to see Alicia too. Raph really appreciated Andrea and Shelley for planning a nice birthday party for Sophie. Raph was disappointed because he wanted everyone to see what an incredible little person she is but she was tired and expressed it loudly. We all understood that she was tired after a long day with daddy going everywhere with no nap! While he knows that we do he still was disappointed because noone here gets to see the kids very often.
Graduations: Diane Judkins will be graduating from BYU with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education 23 and 24th April 2009
Family History: Some of you know that Grandpa Czirr and I were called to a one year mission at the Family History Library on the BYU campus. We just completed a one week training class at the Family History Training Center in Provo. Very intense from 8am until 6pm and very rewarding! The Lord surely does bless us with the best He has and we really appreciate his concern and love.
Draper Temple Open House: Raph was able to go with dad and I to the open house. It was a very educational as well as spiritual experience because of Raph's architectural knowledge and his love of wood. He and dad really enjoyed talking about that. Even the bus ride up to the temple was pleasant! It is such a beautiful edifice. Shelley and Tom and their kids were there at the same time we were. We saw them but had to stay with our group so we didn't get to visit with them.
Draper Temple Dedication: Shelley didn't save seats for us but as it happened we ended up sitting right behind Chandler, Nicole, Shelley, Tom and Casey. That was a wonderful experience. I was in training all week and didn't have a chance to buy a women' handkerchief so I called Shelley and said, "I am one of the foolish virgins and am unprepared." She said she was also - she had tried to buy one and the stores were all out of them so she borrowed from her mother-in-law Roberta. Roberta had enough for me to use one too. I was very appreciative!!
Happy Easter!

February Czirr Family Newsletter
To the people we love best in all the world!
Grandpa decided to save money and stop our Internet pkg with Quest. So I had no power to write anything except by hand and that is expensive to mail. However we called about something else and were told we would receive in the mail a bill in the amount of $200 for terminating our Internet before our contract was up this coming August. We didn't know we had a contract but evidently we did included in the bundle. Grandpa decided to keep the bundle excluding phone message service and long distance and some other things relating to our phone until August and then we'll take another look at it. So I'm terribly late on this blog waiting for the phone company to sort it all out and the days it takes to restore services!
Devin Harr is still enjoying his mission experiences. Missions can teach missionaries a lot!
Maybe you all know by now that Rhett and Mandy had a baby girl - Alexandria Paige Stone!
She weighed 7 lbs if I remember correctly. Congrats Rhett and Mandy!
Dad and I will be set apart as Service Missionaries at the BYU Family History Library on Sunday 22nd @ 4:15. There is a lot to learn and it is a marvel what resources the church offers and what they have found available in the world as well. Starting March 16th we will be in a week-long training class every day from 8-5 in Provo. I think it is primarily a computer class. We can use it that's for sure. We hope we can learn fast and retain what we learn so we can be of assistance to the patrons who come into the Library. We are glad to be missionaries again
Devin Thibideaux's baptism was very nice Saturday on February 14th, Valentine's Day! I love the picture of Devin on the program - his winsome smile reminds me of Jennifer. They appreciated the family's participation and the visiting afterwards. Thanks to all.
Some things are beginning to stir again in dad's world - physics. When his associate, gets his electronics done things can begin to sprint. And he will begin soon mentoring students with their senior thesis in physics (that work is volunteer) at BYU.
A missionary moment - "You are called to represent the Savior. Your voice to testify becomes the same as His voice, your hands to lift the same as His hands. His work is to bless His Father's spirit children with the opportunity to choose eternal life. So, your calling is to bless lives. ..
"Your call has eternal consequences for others and for you. In the world to come, thousands may call your name blessed, even more than the people you serve here. They will be the ancestors and the descendants of those who chose eternal life because of something you said or did, or even what you were...You see, there are no small callings to represent the Lord."
Henry B. Eyring, "Rise to Your Call," Ensign, Nov. 2002 p 76
We hope school and work are going well for everyone - we love and appreciate you!!!!
Happy Un-valentine's Day!

Baptism of Devin Thibodeaux (Susan's grandson)
Devin Thibodeaux (Aunt Susan's grandson from Seattle) wanted his Uncle Bart to baptize and confirm him, so we (Jennifer, Devin, and Susan) are coming to Utah for that special ordinance. The Baptism is scheduled for Saturday, Feb 14, 2009 at 10:00 am at Shanna & Bart's former church building. All the Czirrs (and extended Czirrs) are invited. Bart is baptizing and confirming, Shanna and Susan are talking, Brad is playing the piano, and Tom is conducting. Immediately afterward, there will be a light lunch with "vittles and visiting" at Shanna & Bart's home. Hope to see you there!
Love to all, Aunt Susan

To The People We Love Best In All The World!
We had a wonderful December full of fun times together, breadbears, Czirr Family Christmas Party with a smashing talent show with many, many participants, lots of hugs and kisses and holiday greetings and great gifts. Thanks to all of you -- we love you so much!
We love you Devin. Keep working hard!
Dominique Czirr has a special birthday this month. She is eight years old. Her baptism is on the 31st of January at 10 0'clock. She will let you know other details. If you don't hear from her give her a call - she will be happy to talk to you.
Dad and I have been called to serve one year in the Religion/Family History Library on the BYU campus. We can't wait until we know enough to actually help patrons in the library.
If you find people owing you who are distressed, if you will go to work and try to relieve them as much as you can... God will relieve you when you get into difficulties.
Pres John Taylor
We hope 2009 will be kind to you.
I can't figure out how to change Dec b-days to Jan b-days so I will put them here.
