The case of the missing keys

One of the "funny" stories of being out here..
Saturday we were going to go to a BBQ, Ray had just been driving Darlene's van and we couldn't find the keys! We searched EVERYWHERE! Poor Ray, they were only lost for about 20 minutes when they were lost, we tore the house up and couldn't find them, we had several people looking...
Luckily we could walk to the bbq, so we did and then came back and SEARCHED again and again.. said a few prayers and searched some more. We finally went to bed there was nothing else we could do, said another few prayers and hoped they would turn up in the morning, we had church and 7 people to get there- it would be really hard to get rides to church for all of us, doable, but a pain.
So the next morning we got a back up plan in case we couldn't find the keys and started searching again... a 1/2 hour before we needed to leave for church Darlene found the "extra" set of keys for the van that had been missing for 4 years! Still hadn't found the set we were looking for, but found the old set and could drive everyone to church! What a blessing!
Monday morning... Ray's sister called and guess what she found in a random bag... the original set of keys that were lost! They had slipped into a bag of clothes that Colin was taking home and when she dumped it out to do laundry... clink!
So now because the first set was lost, Darlene found the other set.. see there is a reason for everything! :)
