Snow Day

We've quite a bit of snow this year compared to other years and of course Peyton has loved every minute of it! He and his neighbor friend Jordan have had a blast playing in the snow mainly snowboarding. Brian and I spent this particular weekend working a puzzle only to find that we were missing the last piece. I wish I had taken a picture of us working on it. Our intentions were to frame the puzzle once in place and put it upstairs in the kids hallway....a great snow weekend project but without that missing piece.... We left it up for 4 more days hoping that it would show up and finally Peyton and I took it down so that we actually use our dining room table for dinner. After dinner Makenna comes walking over with something in her hand that she wanted to show me. Yep! You guessed it! It was the missing piece! Go figure right? AFTER we take the whole darn thing down that's when the sneaky 2 year old reveals the missing piece. And it was in the dinning room the whole time. Before she came over, I saw her messing with a rather large candlestick I have in the corner with a pillar candle on top. I guess she had the piece hidden under the pillar candle. One of these days we may work that ole puzzle again...but then again...maybe not. :)
