Well I tell you, the little turds hid it good.  My wife said she could find it inside of 10 minutes if she really looked for it.  I may have to take her up on it, because I put a good 30 minute search in for it today with no results.   :huh:

The twins hiding it is pretty funny Aaron!  :rofl:  Reminds me of that commercial where the little kids are trying to flush all of the stuff down the toilet.   :hysterical:

You won't get money rich in this hobby.  The richness is in the culture, the craft, the friends you meet along the way, and being able to call in a wary game animal with a call that you made with your own hands.

Definitely checked there.  They had access to the 2nd bathroom, so I'm hoping it isn't sitting in the trap in the toilet base.  Safe to say it is so heavy it'll never make it any further if it is in there!!!

I always tell people that having 22 month old twin boys is like sharing your home with federal penetentiary inmates.  They get in fights, steal things, deliberately make messes, try to exploit weaknesses in the general containment system and generally spend their days dreaming up ways to hurt themselves and each other.
