Every year we get a puzzle or two for Christmas. Dave was very excited to get going on this one. Shortly after starting it we realized it was not going to be very easy. It took us the whole week to do. Early on I knocked a piece off the table and saw it go over the stair railing. I searched for it. Over the next few days everyone took turns looking for it. Up and down the stairs, running our hands over the carpet to see if we could feel it. No luck. Caleb and Noni were back before we finished it. It was all done except that one piece. Caleb decided to look one more time. He found it. He was so happy and so were all of us, it just didn't look right with one piece missing. He was the HERO!
We started this one the day we finished the other one because it was New Year's Eve and we had to get it done. It was finished by the next morning! Same size but interlocking pieces and an easy picture! It was a lot more fun, but I stayed up way to late working on it!

Wow! What cool puzzles! I think you should give me the puzzles the next year to do. :) I'm glad you finally updated your blog!
We really miss putting puzzles together. It is just not an option with Sam around. He would be very interested but has no clue about space and not putting bodies all over things. It would be disaster so we don't even try. I'm hoping that when he is older we can do puzzles again! We used to put a puzzle together each year on our anniversary. It is a puzzle of Kennebunkport and all the fun places there, many of which we visited on our honeymoon.
BTW - I Love the lighthouse puzzle!!
