An Accidental Issue

OK, So Claire and I went shopping for her girls camp all last night. It was fun and exciting. But then when pulled up to our parking spot, Aunt Beth called Claire. So, she talked in the car and I kept myself entertained by playing with the keys and the toys we got from All-A-Dollar. Little did I know that I had put the keys in the middle console. Then Claire finished her conversation with her Aunt. So, not even thinking about where I left the keys we got out of the car and locked the doors. "I just locked the keys in the car!" I thought to myself. "Claire is going to kill me." So, I smile to myself awkwardly. Claire caught on quick, "Aaron, what did you do?" She asked me.  "Nothing" I replied, but she is smarter then that. So I quickly said, "Well, I may have locked the keys in the car."
So, now we are locked outside our car and our apartment. (good times) We went to our friends in the ward, who live in the same complex, and they let us use a directory for the apartments. I made small talk with our friends while Claire called. The person who answered was a Spanish speaking guy who is on the maintenance crew of the apartments. It's a good thing Claire was the one talking to him cause I don't know a lick of Spanish.
So, the guy came and let us in after waiting 20-30 minutes. We are so grateful for this roof over our heads and the car's we drive.
Now you now why I put a hid-a-key under my car with a spare key in it. I lock keys in the car more times then I'm willing to admit. However, this is the first time I've locked them in the car being married.
