Working on a 3D puzzle from Grandpa with friends.
Over dinner, the kids asked for their friends to sleep over; so we added three mattresses to the boys’ bedroom and the friends ran home to pack overnight gear (this included a pillow, change of clothes, and books).
10:15PM was lights out. When we left the room at 9:45PM, all 5 were reading their books and all became completely silent.
When we peeked at 10:20PM, the lights were out and the silence continued. Until 8AM the next morning (that’s when the kids were told they could get out of bed).
Breakfast menu – Lara took the orders, Neil was the cook.
After which, the puzzling continued,
…along with table soccer,
…a Dutch oven disaster,
…and some soldering to fix a broken motor.
Neil helped to fix a bike tire, and Nolan helped with a simple fried rice lunch.
The puzzling continues,
and is finished (540 pieces in total)! Friends head home.
We have a snack and then decide on a quick 10km bike ride and short play at a nearby park.
The end!
