A few more March pics...

March was a great month! Along with Heather's engagement, we also enjoyed visits by Jen's mom, Susan Moll, brother Andy, sister-in-law, Nicole, and niece Zoe. Roxy kept us busy too. And last but not least, Jen got a new haircut. Scott approves!

Heather and Robby's engagement!

Scott's sister, Heather, got engaged to Robby Lanouette on March 27th. They plan a July wedding, and we're really excited to have Robby in the family! He's a great addition, and most importantly of course, a great match for Heather. The engagement day saw Robby surprising her with a limousine pickup, followed by the proposal at Titlow Beach, a ride to a city overlook for a prayertime, and then celebrating with the rest of us.

Trip to Oklahoma!

We traveled to Inola, Oklahoma, (a half hour east of Tulsa) over the Easter weekend to see the first of the next generation Seelys, Josiah David, born to Stephen and Valerie. We packed a lot into our short weekend there. The whole family made it, and we enjoyed being nine-strong for the first time. (Soon to be ten! See the post on sister Heather's engagement.) Highlights were seeing our cute nephew, catching up with Stephen and Valerie, spending time with Valerie's wonderful family, (parents, Harvey and Verna, and sister Andrea) meeting the gracious Bobbi who hosted us at her nearby home, and touring the Jantz farm. Jen and I really enjoyed our short taste of country life!

More Roxy Pictures...

We started puppy training classes on Monday night at Petsmart...she's learning to sit when asked. We're having lots fun with her. We've begun taking her on walks and we took her on her first run at Point Defiance on Saturday. She's grown to 16 pounds already!

Announcing Baby Claire...

Our cousins, Matt & Brenda, had their baby girl, Claire Elizabeth Joy, on February 22nd! We're sure Claire's big brother, Joey, is a big help with his new sister. We're so excited about the latest addition to their family!

Our nephew, JOSIAH DAVID SEELY

Scott and Jen welcome their nephew, Josiah David! Josiah was born to Scott's brother and sister-in-law, Stephen and Valerie, on Sunday, February 17th! He was 8 pounds, 6 oz. and approx. 20 inches long! What a charming, good looking young lad! We're so excited abou the recent addition to the Seely family and can't wait to meet him in March. We'll be traveling out to Oklahoma on Easter weekend to meet this adorable nephew!

The latest and greatest...

A few more pictures of some of the things we've been up to lately. First, we have pictures of Jen's mom Susan's birthday party. It was held at Jen's grandparents, Spence and Mary Moll's house in Renton. It was the first time Jen's family got to see Roxy, our rascally boxer. Another highlight of the evening was our niece Zoe's antics, including wowing us with a virtuoso organ concert. Then we have a picture of Roxy back visiting her siblings at the breeders' house in Rochester. Her bigger sister, and BIGGER brother promptly pinned her to the ground and investigated/put her in her place. But our girl's got spunk and by the end, she turned the tables on her bigger sister and had her pinned, even sending her retreating under a table. Ah, sibling love! But Roxy had a blast finally getting to play with other dogs again. Our cats still aren't letting her get too close. Then, we have pictures of a bowling outing with Scott's siblings, David and Heather, and Heather's boyfriend, Robby. And finally, a picture of Jen and Roxy trying out Roxy's brand-new crate. It's just big enough.
