| Yes, but haven't done too many lately. We used to do at least 3 puzzles each Christmas. Now that the kids are older, no one is that much interested.
I did start one this Christmas, but only I worked on it. I did a bit, left it for a couple of days then put it back in the box.
I love doing them, though :-) _________________ CARLA My BLOG - The Pursuit of Scrappyness Cooking With Carla  |

| Yes, I LOVE puzzles, and Christmas is my usually time to get to do some, but wish Noah around that has been impossible.  |

| I used to. Like you, Carla, we had one going every Christmas. Dh doesn't like them though and it's no fun by myself so have sort of dropped that ball over the past few years. I love doing puzzles with the grandkids although the wooden pieces aren't much of a challenge! LOL |

| Nope. I like to do the border and put the last piece in but that is it. My DM loves to do them though and spends the winter doing them. |

| I remember my grandparents (mom's parents) always had a puzzle on the go -- the more pieces the better! And.... they loved the sky. Uggh, that's my least favourite. _________________ CARLA My BLOG - The Pursuit of Scrappyness Cooking With Carla  |

| Sometimes. My mother LOVES them! She's got one that's 3,000 pieces of the Grand Canyon at sunset. It covers the entire dining room table! She can't do them as much nowadays with her shoulder issues, so we buy her the smaller ones. I gave her one this Christmas (about 300 pieces) of a bright red Cardinal on a pine branch with a snowy background. She LOVED it! |

| I used to do puzzles when I was younger, and I remember my mom doing puzzles lots when I was little. I have too many other things I would rather do, so I rarely do them.
Unless you count Strawberry Shortcake, Thomas the Train and Toopy and Binoo brain teaser 24/48 piece ones that I do with Sienna. hahahaha! |

| I do like doing puzzles but haven't done any since I started scrapping.  It was always over Christmas that I did them because it seemed it was okay to use time that way during the holidays. |

| I enjoy puzzles but stopped doing them when MIL moved in. She always complained about them being on the table and then she would `help`put them together when I was at work. I don`t like to share my toys....lol. |

| Sometimes it is just nice to sit down to something simple like that and not worry about a 'crash' or no internet!! |

| I enjoy doing puzzles and now that we got one of those gizmos that you can roll up the unfinished puzzle without dismantling it completely I like it even better! This way it can stay unfinished for a while and then get picked up whenever! |
