About Flat Angel

I want to let everyone know what this is about again...Flat Angel is similiar to Flat Stanley a kids project they do in school to learn about geography and other cultures. He travels around the world via email and in an envelope (because he was run over and is now flat he can do that LOL) visiting different locations. I want to be able to show kids at my daughters school Flat Angel and explain to them about supporting our troops past present and future. It is so important to teach kids patriotism and pride in our country EVERYDAY just not on holidays! By giving our men and women in uniform a face and show kids that what a soldier does and that the soldiers/sailors like to have fun with a project that the kids actually KNOW about I hope I can do that. Please participate if you can...It's one picture or as many as you want to take! Contact me and I will be happy to email you the picture to use! This is for our military ANYWHERE in the United States as well as Vets Organizations to participate in. Please help me get as many pictures as possible! Thank you!

A Day of Shopping

The adventures of Flat Angel continue!
Here is Flat Angel eating lunch with some of the guys wearing some very cool sunglasses...thanks to the troops for looking out for her and offering her eye protection!
Playing some scrabble...looks like fun and a nice way to end the day!

For those of you who have read the main blog know that I have lost the solitare out of my wedding ring and haven't been able to find it so I am without my ring for the time being...looks like "Flat Angel" went shopping with some of the troops and is checking out the jewelry for me!

Ring Shopping with a local!
Haggling over the price...trying to get a better deal....

Flat Angel at Camp Moreell

Okay I got my first pictures from Flat Angel's USO Tour she is currently visiting the Seabees and looks like she has been checking out everything on base....



Here she is checking out the local wildlife in Kuwait.....
Safety First!
I think the gate guard might want to know where her escort is!
Making sure that even while traveling she stays in shape!
Trash duty?!?! Leave it to the Bee's!!
As you can see it appears they are having some fun with this project. I actually got a lot of pictures from them and will be sharing the funny ones. I am looking forward to having a lot more pictures from people!

Flat Angel

Okay for those that have linked from my main blog you know what Flat Angel is all about...for those that might not here is a copy of the original post about Flat Angel....

Flat Angel
How many people know what a "Flat Stanley" is? Most everyone with kids in school should know! Well hubby has been talking about sending all his stuff home from the sandbox and he said he was going to take me off the wall and pack me up to leave...doesn't that sound funny? Well i got this awesome idea of "Flat Angel"! I am now currently trying to convince him to please take my picture around camp and so I can put it in a scrapbook....we will see if he has the guts to do it or not! I can just see him carrying around a picture of me and taking digital pictures of it! Too bad our daughter didn't have this project this year....he has been to many countries! Flat Piper only got to go to Georgia to visit his dad. Well official word hubby doesn't have much to do tommarrow so "Flat Angel" will be visiting around camp!! WOOHOO!! Can't wait to see the pictures...I told him he had to take a picture that isn't "sexy" so that I can show it to everyone...afraid of which picture he is actually going to use!!


**Update on the Flat Angel project...it is now known as "Flat Angel's USO tour!" LOL I told hubby to make sure that he got a picture of Flat Angel with some of his guys over there and I could call it "Flat Angel Supports the Troops" and he is going to do it! But I have mentioned this to a few hero's I know across the US military and now I am going to get pictures from all over! If you would like to be part of Flat Angel please let me know! I would love to attend your local Protest the Protestors gatherings as well!**

So this is the new area to see all of her adventures....all the people I talk to think it's a little silly but actually have fun doing it. So if you are a military member please let me know if you would like to have Flat Angel come and see your camp/base!
