It's puzzling

 It's been awhile since we put a puzzle together at a Tobler gathering.  I don't know why...maybe we figured there were too my little fingers to  carry off pieces or not an extra place to set one up.
 
 But this last Christmas we decided to try one again.   So fun... for most of us.  One unnamed individual kept murmuring about his dislike for puzzles but he even spent some time searching for fits...it's addicting.
 We did keep several little people puzzles near by for those that weren't up to the 1000 piece challenge.  But even little Violet found and fit a few pieces.
.
It was the  perfect mind challenging activity to fill those down times.  Great activity just to visit over. A little competitive...we had alittle cricket  noise maker we'd click and cheer when we'd fit a piece...until Karl got annoyed by it and hid it.

.
Last piece.
 We did it!!!!!

A tradition that must continue, thanks for thinking about it and bringing it :)!

I'm going to bet the murmurer was Karl! Clark would have joined in on the murmuring as well. I would have opted for a floor puzzle ages 4-8.
