Can't get Search form or page to work

I can’t seem to get my search form at the top of my page to work correctly and show results. I’ve already looked at the wordpress codex guides but I am still lost.

Here is the url to my site, where I am using a custom theme I created:

http://colleenroxas.com/client/wlc/

This is the code for my searchform.php:

<form method="get" id="searchform" class="searchform" action="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>">
		<input id="s" class="search-box" name="s" size="40" type="text" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" placeholder="  SEARCH...  "/>
		<input id="searchsubmit" class="search-btn" value="&nbsp;" type="submit"/>
</form>

This is the code for my search.php:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Search Page
*/
?>

<?php
global $query_string;

$query_args = explode("&", $query_string);
$search_query = array();

foreach($query_args as $key => $string) {
	$query_split = explode("=", $string);
	$search_query[$query_split[0]] = urldecode($query_split[1]);
} // foreach

$search = new WP_Query($search_query);
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

		<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
		the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail', array('class' => 'featured-image') );
		} else { ?>
		<?php } ?>

			<div id="content">

			<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

			<div id="page-content">

			<H1>Search Results</H1>

			<?php get_search_form(); ?>

			<?php
			global $wp_query;
			$total_results = $wp_query->found_posts;
			?>

			</div><!-- end content -->

<?php get_footer(); ?>

This is the code in my header.php to display the search box:
<?php get_search_form( $echo ); ?>

Finally this is the css I have for the search box:

.search-box{
		position: relative;
		font-family: 'Museo Sans';
		color: #898989;
		font-size: 11px;
		font-weight: 500;
		background: #ebf1e2;
		padding: 5px 0 5px 5px;
		border: 0 none;
		width: 160px;
	 }

	 .searchform {
		 display: inline;
	 }

	 .search-btn {
	 	margin-left: -5px;
	 	background: url('images/icon-search.png') center no-repeat #ebf1e2;
		font-family: 'Museo Sans';
		color: #fff;
		font-size: 11px;
		font-weight: 500;
		padding: 5px 15px;
		border: 0 none;
	}
