It's A Snow Day!

Day two of our captivity . . . oh wait, it's really not that bad! Jon and I got out to make the Tom Thumb donations pick up for the food pantry.  While we were there we checked out the shelves, it seems eggs, bread and milk were a little picked over! 

The kids worked on Frankie's favorite 500 piece Little Mermaid puzzle.  Later we took out a 1,000 piece round horse puzzle.  It has been in the box since last Christmas because Frankie was convinced it was too hard!  It took them a few days to work through it, but of course she was able to do it!  Jon was a big help with the hard parts! 

Jon and his mom, a.k.a. Granny both enjoy puzzles and usually when we are nearing the end of a puzzle and getting stuck then we call Granny to see if she would like to make a visit to Texas to help us finish up! 

Here are links to a few of our favorite puzzle projects: 1,000 piece Baseball Puzzle (2009); 1,000 piece Ziggurat 
 Puzzle (2008);   1,000 stateof Texas (2008); and 1,000 piece Presidents puzzle (2007).


And yes, you will notice I am in none of the pictures doing any puzzle.  I don't find them enjoyable or relaxing, I  absolutely am no help in putting a puzzle together.  But I love that the kids enjoy them and enjoy doing them with Jon and their Granny!
