Two More Flat Third Graders Arrive

Back from Virginia, Flat Seth had many adventures to tell the class.  He really enjoyed seeing the navy ships and aircraft.  He also had a fun time at the beach.

Flat Anna sent some neat things back to Michigan, but decided to stay in Florida a little longer with Grandpa and Grandma. (Who could blame her?)  Well any how, we got to see some pictures of the things she was doing.  She collected sea shells on the beach, went out to eat, played shuffleboard, rode bikes and spent some time just enjoying the sunshine!
