A Visit From Flat Stanley

We received this letter in the mail a few days ago (along with Flat Stanley--a children's book character that you can read about in the letter). The letter was from our friend's son, Ben, in Huntsville, AL. His 2nd grade class was sending them to different cities to learn about weather, tourist attractions, and occupations.
The girls were so excited so we documented our adventures with Flat Stanley.

Here he is with Claire and her friend Natalie.Claire & Natalie

He made himself comfortable on the pew.
This morning Ally took him to preschool before we had to mail him back.
Brent tyed up this nice letter telling Ben's class all about Memphis and I included the pictures of our adventures!!

We'll miss you Flat Stanley!!

How neat! We had a visit from Flat Stanley when my brother was around 3rd grade. The boys thought it was so great.

What a hoot! I've never heard of Flat Stanley, but it seems like a really neat idea. I'm sure Flat had a great time! I love the pics with the girls reading to him and the one with Ally sleeping with him. Too funny!
