Kellan went on a campout Friday night and left his HDMI adaptor in the cabin so we contacted the owner, a bishop in our stake and asked if we could come up this evening to find it. We showed up at the cabin and two of his daughters and a friend were already there and he pulled in right behind us. After searching for the adapter for a little while we concluded one of the other leaders must have packed it down with them and it wasn't at the cabin. We would have just left then but they insisted we stay and Bishop kept telling us to just "take a seat and read a book."
Kellan & I ended up helping them decorate the cabin for Christmas and set up some lights on the deck. Then they invited up their brother & his girlfriend with instructions to bring up some snacks because we were all hungry and we played Catchphrase to the Alvin & the Chipmunks christmas record.
On our way home we decided to drop off another leader's backpack and see if they had our adapter in the equipment box they brought home. Turned out they were having a little get together/dinner and we totally crashed it right as one of the families was leaving. We ended up staying to play Settlers of Catan & having a bit of their delicious dinner. Oh, and no adapter.
When we finally got home Kellan pulled out his backpack and dumped it out and lo and behold, hidden inside a binder was the very same adapter we'd been searching for all night. This simple little thing led to all the adventure of the evening.
