Puzzles

We got a great puzzle from my Aunt and Uncle for Christmas this year!
As anyone with little boys know, trains are always popular!
This is why I was not blogging very much as this puzzle was 800 pieces...
not too bad you say?
HAHAHA!
This was one of the hardest puzzle ever!
It took us over a week to do and there are NO STRAIGHT edges! Plus.....

the box LIED!!!

There were only 799 pieces! So frustrating!

Is this true? Did you look under the sofa for that missing piece?

If I weren't afraid that you would bop me on the head, I would laugh!
