Where did Daddy's ring go?

So we went to Somerset this past weekend for a quick trip to visit with Mom and Jim/Granny and Poppy. On Saturday night, Alex found Tim's wedding ring thought it was fun to put it on his finger. We quickly took it away from him and put it back on the nightstand, as we rushed out the door to dinner. Putting it back on the nightstand, right where Alex remembered it being, was our first mistake. Apparently at some point later in the night, he went back into the bedroom and took Tim's ring and hid it, without any of us realizing this! Fast forward to Sunday morning, we were packing up to leave and Tim couldn't find his ring. We looked EVERYWHERE. There was even a heating vent below the nightstand and we took it apart and looked in there. Jim went to the basement and tapped on the duct work to see if he could hear it bouncing in there - but nothing. After an exhaustive search, we decided it had to be there somewhere and it would turn eventually, so we left. Without the ring. I was annoyed... We got about a mile down the road and mom called. They had found the ring!!! Alex had stuck it in the cardboard part of the toilet paper roll and Jim heard it hit the floor as soon as he went to get toilet paper to blow his nose! Alex is so sneaky, but we couldn't be mad at him... He remembered where he put it after we told him where we found it, of course...
