Castle Rock, Colorado

 Flat Stanley sent by Jesus Miguel arrived in Castle Rock, Colorado last weekend, but we were so busy he didn't get opened until Monday.  Flat Stanley got to go the Ranch View Middle School with Mrs. Myers (Melissa's mom).  It was boring the first 4 days of school because the students were doing TCAP testing and it was very quiet.  On Friday Flat Stanley finally got to do a few things.  First we decided to laminate him so he could be in any kind of weather and right after that he got a powdered sugar donut.  All of a sudden he was really busy and he had to help Mrs. Myers TA(teacher assistant).  First they helped a student tear the butcher paper.  Flat Stanley also got to go the the gym and lift weights.  Then he went to the band room, played the drums, cello, xylophone, and piano.  He was pretty tired and then had to have a Starbucks to get some energy.  There are lots of things to do in Colorado, like ski, sled, fish, hike and enjoy good food.  We sure did have fun with Flat Stanley. He is going to fly back to the Dominican Republic when she goes to visit her daughter.
