(Note: I told my mother to blog about this, but we all know she is a terrible blogger. I think this story is hilarious so I took matters into my own hands. ENJOY!!!)
My whole life my parents have always joked about "Doreen". The girl my dad met at EFY when he was 17, the girl my dad wrote, the girl my dad was in love with until my mom came around. It has always been kind of a little joke with our family and sort of "sensitive subject" with Julie. Well, Wednesday night I get a call from my mom around 9 o'clock. She was very "excited" on the phone, so I asked what's going on. Here is the story: Every year as well all know the Kiser's go to the Oregon Coast for the 4th of July. We usually switch off bringing a friend. This year it is Brady's turn. So he kept asking if Freddy could come, my parents needed to figure out sleeping arrangement and things like that so it took awhile for them to give a final answer. In the mean time Freddy kept asking so many questions and was getting so excited that he might be able to come. Finally, last week my parents decided that it would be fine if Freddy came. So, Wednesday night they are at Brady and Freddy's baseball game and Freddy's mom comes over to talk to my parents about the Oregon trip. (My parents have met Freddy's mom multiple times in the past, Larry has even gone to lunch with Freddy's dad before) She wanted to get the details and things. So as they moms are chatting up a storm, Freddy's mom stops and says "I knew some Kiser's that live in Oregon". My dad says "Oh really? What part?" Freddy's mom replies "Beaverton" Larry: "Really, that is where we are from" Freddy's mom " Yeah his name was actually Larry Kiser" --Awkward pause. My dad "My name is Larry Kiser" Freddy's mom "Yeah, I know.. we went to EFY together" My mom blurts out "You're DOREEN?" Everyone was a little taken back a perplexed. WHAT A SMALL WORLD!! They chatted about it for a little reminiscing but trying to make it the least awkward as they could. Other friends start gathering, wondering what all the commotion was about. In the mean time, the baseball game ends and Cole walks over to Brady and gives him a big bear hug and whispers in his ear "Dad has made out with Freddy's mom". Brady about has a conniption. Runs over to my mom to get the details, everyone is laughing, and still in shock that Freddy's mom is Doreen!! What are the chances and how ironic that they end up living in the same town and their sons become best friends! After Brady's friend Kyal hears the story he says " Wait, so Brady and Freddy could have been brothers'!! Ha ha! Such a classic story! Later that night I get a text from my dad that just says "Your old man has it going on". Yes dad you HAD it going on! But I sure am glad you married mom, or else I probably wouldn't be alive and I wouldn't have my red hair! 
Hope everyone has a stellar weekend. We have a wedding shower for Jake and Torah tomorrow. I will be sure and post pics on Monday.

Cass, you kill me! I thought you told me to blog about this story. But, I guess since you are a better blogger than me, you beat me to it. I still can't believe this story. I'm in awe. You needed to say that Doreen and Dad had never really talked until that night. They may have waved or said hi in passing but never talked otherwise this whole encounter may have happened a couple of years ago.
that story is boss! kind of like when my dad went to jennys friends dinner party and there his first (annullment after 3 months) wife was! JOAN! jennys best friend's husbands sister? what? ahhh!
And he STILL has it goin on!!!!!
