So after completing our last puzzle, we had ran out of puzzles. For a couple of days we thought that the puzzle was missing a piece but we weren't that bummed cause it meant that we could exchange it for a new one. Unfortunately my mom found the piece so we couldn't return it anymore. But it's okay cause it was a pretty puzzle.
Luckily I received a puzzle from my grandparents for Christmas. We sat down to start it tonight, putting itunes on shuffle, making hot chocolate, and eating Life Saver The puzzle is a picture of Neuschwanstein Castle, or as I know it, "the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Castle." And it's the most challenging on yet, with 2000 pieces. Phew! We just did the border and that took a couple of hours. We've got a system down it seems. Separate that border from the non-border, put those together, and then separate into different colors while looking for previously missed borders haha. So we've got a sky pile, a castle pile, and the rest are just kinda together. So I guess we'll see how long it takes this time. See if we ever get a dinner table back.
The completed border and the finished poster picture of what it's supposed to become
The other 1812 pieces or so to put together
Lucky for us some of the pieces came together! We were stoked cause it meant just a little less work
Another exciting thing is that today we shaved Doug clean! His choice, cause I like him both ways. But in case you were wondering what was beneath that gotee, this is it!
