Flat Hannah

We have had an interesting visitor here at the Casa.

She is ...
  • flat
  • multi-colored
  • quiet
  • cute
  • full of adventure
Her name is Flat Hannah. She was sent here to Casa de Coop by a little girl in California.

Why did she send her?

Well, her school is doing a project based on the book named "Flat Stanley". They made their own "Stanley" and sent them off to different parts of the country.

Our little friend Hannah knows Nicole, and she suggested that Flat Hannah be sent to our house. Cole knows that we will do our best to show Flat Hannah a good time.

Show her a good time is what we did!

MarciaMickMom ended up taking her on a ten day tour of Utah's most wonderful National Parks. Here she is...on the bus.....






....Reading up on Checker board mesa in Zion...










...Becoming a Junior Ranger in Bryce...











....Riding a boat on Lake Powell with a guide named Danny...









...Gasping at Rainbow Bridge....










...About to take a hike to see Delicate Arch in Arches National Park...











...checking out the deer at Capital Reef....











...enjoying the incredible view at Landscape Arch....










...Chilling with a Navajo Hoop dancer...












...Catching some sun beside a hogan...











...and lastly trying to figure out the petrogylphs.







We will miss you Flat Hannah. Hope that you had a wonderful time!

When I saw the title of the post.. I thought it was going to be about a girl who was having self-esteem issues in the bust region.

THE ACTUAL POST WAS BETTER THAN I SPECULATED!

My daughter, Rianne, recently did Flat Stanley for school as well. If we would have known we would have sent him to you. I am sure our Stanley didn't have near the adventure Hannah had. Great job showing her around!

Hey Lex - just talked to Hannah's mom Lisa and she said that Hannah's teacher showed your blog to the whole class! They are SO excited to see the book!

Thanks again to you and Mom for doing this! You've made a little girl VERY happy!
