Too much puzzle!

This last week Daniel and I completed a 3000 piece puzzle on our kitchen table. After turning over all the pieces and finding all the edges, we began to realize that the puzzle was bigger than the table, like 4 inches bigger! We had to rig up special cardboard ledges on both sides of the table to accommodate the whole thing! And if trying not to bump the precarious cardboard ledges wasn't difficult enough, we had to convince our 3 cats that the ledges could not be jumped upon and that the puzzle pieces were not toys. We never accomplished either.

However, after 4 days we did finally complete the puzzle. Here is an aerial photo of it. The hand holding the camera is pressed against the ceiling in this shot. If you look closely, you can see the cardboard ledges peeking out the sides of the puzzle.
