The Case of the Missing Towels

In early June as I was getting ready for Sarah's arrival, I went looking for a Mickey Mouse bath towel for her. Couldn't find it. We own 4 sets of towels -- 2 gray and 2 purple. I changed the towels around the same time and was missing a gray, a purple and 2 small gray towels. As towels are kept on the top shelf of closets in our home, I asked the person taller than I if he/she had seen them. Nope. Couldn't find them either. We scratched our heads, cleaned out the closets, and found nothing.

Fast forward to today. I have been hanging laundry outside to dry since sometime mid-May so we don't use the dryer. For some reason another adult in the house decided to check the dryer today. Lo and behold. Towels. Lots and lots of towels.
