Awesome Puzzle Wall

Awesome Puzzle Wall

About a year or so ago when we were still trying to decide on a housing development and floor plan in the metro Atlanta area, we came across a house and floor plan that we fell in love with.  Unfortunately, the development the house was located in wasn’t exactly what we were looking for so we ended up moving on.  I had forgotten all about an awesome room just off the master that the model had turned into a kid’s…

Life After “Life”

Life After “Life”

I know it will be years before I complete the Life puzzle, but I am already lining up future puzzling projects that I’d like to give a shot after this one is finished.  Not nearly as big as Life, but still beautiful pictures nonetheless.  Here’s some of the ones I’m most interested in getting: GOOD OLD DAYS – 6,000 pieces by Nicky Boehme ASTROLOGY – 9,000 pieces by Ravensburger MAGNA CARTA – 6,000 pieces WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS – 6,000…

Thankful for NBA Playoffs

Thankful for NBA Playoffs

Since Randy wanted to watch the NBA playoffs last night I had an opportunity to spend more time working on the puzzle.  I love when I get to spend additional time with the puzzle that I wasn’t expecting.  I worked on the moon and got all but one or two of the pieces near the moon’s edge.  I put him into place in the sky.  The skyline is starting to come together pretty well between the balloons and now the moon…

Balloons and Tigers and Rocks – OH MY!

Balloons and Tigers and Rocks – OH MY!

Sorry I haven’t updated the blog in a little while, but for several days every time I went down to my puzzle room in the basement, I forgot to bring my camera with me so I couldn’t take the pictures while I was there working on it, and then of course Derek would be ready to wake up or something so I just never got around to taking any pictures until this morning.  I have made some good progress and…
