Some Flat Stanley Snaps

Gentle Readers and Dear Friends, there is really not much at all going on here!!  A typical day for me.....go to work come home - go down to the pool to relax and get some sunshine for an hour or so, fix dinner (and I didn't even do that last night... we ordered Chinese  - and had it delivered... so I didn't even have to change out of my sweat pants/shirt ensemble I was rocking!!) stitch some and go to bed ....  then it starts all over again in the morning.  I do love routine, but the Blog takes a hit with the same old boring stuff!!

I finished up "May" cottage last night, but I am not going to show it here until I make a decision to either keep the little white fence or frog it out.....  I am leaning towards the frog and just having some open lawn.  I'll get a snaperoo up in the morning.

I thought I would show some of the pictures we got over the weekend of Flat Stanley...

Taken at Alamo Square looking East towards downtown San Francisco

I have about 30 or so snaps from both Daytona Beach and San Francisco getting printed that I will put into a little Photo Album - then I'll get everything together and off to Australia in the morning!! This was a great project I had lots of fun getting it together!!  Thanks to Rico and Cissy!!!

That's about it for today sports fans.  Thanks for stopping by do stop again!!

Take care,

  3. I love those Flat Stanley snaps. I remember doing that with my son when he was younger. I sent him off to my sister in California (she lives in Palos Verdes) and she had Stanley riding a surf board. It looks like your Stanley is having a great time!

  7. Hannah was 'friends' with Mr. Stanley years ago, waaay back when she was in 3rd grade...he visited CT, PA, VA, NY & Fla at the time, with all of his stop-overs in between. Since she is now getting ready to fly off to college, we were unpacking some of her old boxes and guess who popped out? yepper. a wrinkled, dusty & faded Mr. Stanley....good times, good times....thank you for the memory.

  10. Flat Stanley looks like he is having a wild time! Plus his teeth look so white and clean, so you must be making sure he brushes daily :)
    Looking forward to see how your May Cottage turns out, fence or no fence!
