Monday we didn't have school or work so we decided it was a great day to head down to Idaho Falls, hit up the sale's that were going on and get our grocery shopping done for the next couple weeks.
We started at Ross and found a couple shirts and a new bag for Ethan and I found a cute springy scarf. We then hit up the mall. In January our Gap in Idaho Falls closed so I don't have a whole lot of temptation left there. I did however find some adorable skirts from Old Navy but low and behold, I should not be wearing a stretch shirt that hugs on the backside! I mean come on, can't they have a size between medium and large? It would have been perfect. I didn't get them and we left the store. We decided to go to Zumiez, which is kind of a snowboarding/skating store, hoping to possibly find a new coat for Ethan. SCORE!! All of their men's snow gear was buy one get one free. We found two great coats and it was all for the price of one!
We decided we probably hit our shopping budget and headed to Sam's Club for a few grocery items. We got our things checked and and put the items in our trunk. Ethan had bought some time of fuel injection product a few days before and put what was left in the bottle in the trunk. He realized that it was leaking and got it out. I put the last box in the trunk and closed it. I went to my door and it was locked. I asked him to unlock it. He looked at me and said he didn't have the keys. We then looked at each other with pits in our stomachs. We had locked the keys in the trunk! He had set the keys in the trunk when he grabbed the bottle and I didn't think twice about looking inside to make sure the keys weren't in there. It was getting slightly chilly so we went back inside to figure it out. We went to customer service and the girl said there was actually a guy in the tire department that had had to break into her car a couple times for her. Saved, or so we thought. Russ, the guy who can break into cars, was not working today. Perfect. We searched online for a bit how to break into our car but weren't finding any plausible ideas. One of the tire guys then suggested we break our window and claim insurance. Genius. Moron, I'm not going to break my window, thanks. I decided to call our insurance to see if we had coverage for stuff like that. *Cue heavenly angels singing* We did indeed have coverage and within about 30 minutes the towing guy had come, broke into our car, and we had our keys. I kid you not, they guy spent more time doing paperwork than the actually breaking in. It was pretty impressive how fast he was. We signed the papers and were back on our way.
By that time we were starving so we stopped and ate at Panda Express and finished our shopping at Walmart. It was a bit eventful but I do have to say that I'm pretty proud of ourselves that other than a 15 second stint, we didn't let it get to us or let it ruin our great day that we had had. We have decided it may be a good idea to get a second key that we can hide just in case this were to ever happen again.
