Yes.... yes they are.... Let me explain:
Today started out as a quite normal day - with the addition that Dan had a real estate photo shoot down in Eagan at 8:15am and then I had a kid photoshoot at 11am. Since Dan's would take awhile and was further away so Dan took the Saab {our nicer car} and I was going to take the Saturn.
I was getting ready to leave and spoke with Suzanne {the mom of the kiddos I was going to photograph} and we chose to reschedule - it was a cold day to take summery pictures of 2 kids under 3!!! So I was about to dry my hair when I got a phone call; it was Dan, "Um, yah..... we have a problem..... so I was walking through the golf course" {SIDE NOTE: he was taking pictures in and old golf course that is being turned into suburbia land, the lot pictures so people could choose theirs lots} continue...."and I seem to have dropped the keys somewhere in the golf course" MIND YOU this golf course is 100 acres....
Okay, no problem - right?? Kinda frustrating because very UNlikely that we would find them - and it stinks because the Saab keys cost $300 to replace! But I would just go down with the spare key and pick him up.....
One slight problem - NO SPARE KEY TO BE FOUND.......... Nowhere.....
So I head down to Eagan to pick Dan up. While on my way Dan called Saab to find out what it would cost to get new keys if we didn't find either of them.... They said - a whopping $1,500!!!!! So we walked for 2 hours through the golf course to no avail and head back home to spend some time with Dan's parents and Layton. {At Randy's new job he works Monday-Tuesday, then Thursday-Saturday - so Wednesdays off} So they came to the cities to do some shopping for their new house then to our house for some lunch then Costco. Afterwards - we left for an engagement shoot.
{Mind you - we are still one car short because our Saab is stuck in Eagan with no key to open it....}
So on our way home after our engagement shoot we got a phone call from Judy "We're stranded...."
THE CARS ARE AGAINST US!!!!
Luckily they had only made it to Woodbury and Dan dropped my off at home, drove out to Woodbury and about now they are probably at the airport getting them a rental car so they can go home and Randy can make it to work tomorrow.
Why didn't I go with Dan?? The Saturn is a small, rickety old car that only fits 4 - Dan+Randy+Judy+Layton{and car seat}=4 Plus they have a huge cooler full of Costco food plus the other Costco food and more....
Again.... the cars are against us..... PLEASE pray that we find at LEAST one of our keys. God has been SO good about finding {specifically Dan's} keys in the past and we trust that God is SO capable of returning them again. Please pray - we need at least one key so that we don't have to pay $1,500 JUST to be able to use our car again.
Thank you for the prayers - and always please feel free to pass your prayer requests on to us too - I'd/we'd love to pray for you {kberdal@gmail.com}
