Despicable Minions and Those Who Love Them

Despicable Minions and Those Who Love Them

Is it just me or do you also find yourself watching these adorable movies over and over again? Whenever I am flipping through channels and see one of the movies airing, I generally will stop and watch even if it’s just for a few minutes. From the moment I first saw Despicable Me in the movie theater I have been hooked. They are just the cutest little, banana eating, mischevious dudes. They always make me smile. So no big surprise…

Play and Make Ice Cream Pops

Play and Make Ice Cream Pops

I loved this puzzle! It was so much fun and a very easy assembly for sure. I haven’t heard of very many of these pops, but most of them look delicious, and I would love to try several. My absolute favorite one was the soccer ball — isn’t it cute? I also really liked the looks of each of these. The fit on this puzzle was pretty loose and there was only one piece shape other than the edges, but…

Family Time

This week I had the pleasure of doing something I am not sure if I have done since I was a very young child, if even then. I worked on a puzzle with my mom and my brother! It was so much fun too. We all had a great time working on it together. I selected this image specifically because of the type of dogs represented. Each of these cuties looks very similar to a dog one or more of…

Indeed, what is a fancy girl to do when presented with so many glittery and gorgeous options?? Wear them all of course! ? This is my first Fancy Nancy puzzle, but will certainly not be my last.

El Senor and the Beach

El Senor and the Beach

This puzzle was too adorable to pass up at Walmart this morning. I loved the first Re-Marks 100-piece dog puzzle I did of a handsome little Boston Terrier. Read about him here. El Senor did not disappoint either. The pieces fit tightly enough together that I could pick it up with just two fingers and hold it. Always a plus in my book. I also grabbed another Re-Marks puzzle with it this morning as well. An adorable dog having fun…

1,000 pc. – Bizarre Bookshop I – Ravensburger

I was starting to get frustrated that I wasn’t getting much time to spend on the Life puzzle because it’s difficult to tuck myself away in the puzzle room while Randy is upstairs in the family room watching TV.  I want to work on the puzzle, but I also want and need to spend time with him too.  So, I decided that since I can no longer work on this section upstairs in the family room easily, I would try…

A Birthday Puzzle

A Birthday Puzzle

My sister Debbie sent me a puzzle for my birthday this year.  It was very sweet of her – I called and thanked her of course, and told her that any time she wants to send me a puzzle, it’s A-okay with me!  LOL I can’t honestly say that it’s one of my favorite scenes, but it should be fun to do anyway.  I will do the puzzle, and then probably sell it as I don’t really have any desire…
