Flat Friend: Amsterdam

I just posted about one of our Flat Friends going with my brother to Iraq. My husband also took one of Alexandra's Flat Friends with him to Amsterdam.

On the rental car!

With a Rembrandt - how cool is that?

We're digitally hosting a Flat Stanley from Iowa for about the next 2 weeks. The mom emailed a scanned image of the Flat Stanley and we'll print it out, take it around with us photographing it, and email reports periodically.

Very cool, Dana!
GB and I made one because yours was so cute! He had to make the army one. I'm hoping he'll let me take some photos on our vacation to Mexico. I may get an, "Awwww, Mom!" But I'm gonna try. It's so cute!
