We had a great treat! We got to see Tom and Karen Doty, friends we haven't seen in about 10 or 12 years.We met the Doty family at First Baptist Church in Trophy Club, TX. They moved to the Ozarks after only 3 years in Trophy Club, but we became good friends there. They now live in Springdale, Arkansas. And their family has grown. They have 3 kids, Keri, Brady and Dallas. All have married and now there are lots of grandchildren. Pictured are Tom and Karen with Keri's family and Brady's family. Keri and Garth (husband) met in Texas, where Garth played the part of Jesus in our church musical.
When we realized they were only about 2 hours from Branson, we decided a visit was necessary. We drove down to see them for a day, went to church with them, had lunch and spent the rest of the day at their lake house.
Their lake house is beautiful and is enjoyed by their whole family. They are fortunate that they all live close and can get together often.
We have gotten to see many friends and family as we have traveled around the country, many that we haven't seen in a long time. Hope we don't wait another 10 years before we get to see the Dotys again.
