Flat Stanley's Visit













Last week, I got a call from an old friend who lives out west, asking if I would "host" Flat Stanley. She explained this 2nd graders project - where this paper doll gets sent around the country. I said yes and received this journal where others have writen where he's visited and included pictures. I had to take my Dad on a road trip to a doctor - so I showed him somewhere I thought would be interesting & it was on the way. (:
Louisville, Kentucky: Home of the UofL Cardinals (where the basketball team is doing very well to my husband's delight being a graduate from there!), Home of Churchill Downs where the KY Derby happens, and home to the Louisville Slugger Baseball Bat! Hope you had fun with us Mr. Stanley! Sorry the sun was in the wrong place at each stop!











While my Dad was at the Doctor - I found a place for my kids to play!!! I had never been there before - but it was right along the river and the weather was nice. The playground was the right color for the day! GREEN! (: We had a little picnic and took a walk. Saw a house that when I pointed it out to my kids, Z said, "It looks like a doll house." I laughed and said that it did indeed! (: I think I saw a sign that they sell ice cream there in the summer! (:
