    We received our first one yesterday, and are just getting started. I'm sure the flats will start arriving this week. :)

    The boys are so excited our first flat arrived today! We are going to show Cuddles around for a bit and next week we'll take a trip to the zoo and hopefully the science center as well!

    Ok, so the chick who decided when they needed to be in the mail failed. I mean... epic fail. I gave ours to DH to mail Friday (which was still two days late). He misunderstood and thought I just wanted him to put them in the car. So... um... ours went out TODAY! Ug. I'm so ashamed. I'm a lousy leader, ladies. Never, ever, ever let me lead any sort of swap again!

    We'd like to host a flat, at the end of October, that's when we'll be moving, as long as this sale goes thru, and thought it would be fun to take a flat from Delaware to Florida, and all the states in between! Just let us know when the next round starts, because we want to join in!

    We'll probably be ready to send out one or two by the middle of the month! And host one or two in return...

    I'm getting ours ready to send back Tuesday. Assuming I find the cord to my camera to get the pictures off of it.

    And we'd love to host two or three more. We're going to Pennsylvania at the end of the month and have all sorts of funtastic things planned.

    We'll probably start another thread for the next round (we're in the middle of the first go-round right now). To get started, browse back through some of the links in this thread for ideas on your Flat and get it ready to go.

    Actually, I think we're nearly a month into this. lol. I think some people may have returned theirs already. IDK. I haven't yet, because I still can't find that stupid cord.

    We have just put one back in the mail - simplysonita your's is on the way. Flat Pirate Cat has one more adventure this week and then he'll be in the mail too!

    It's been fun, but hosting is a little more work than I had anticipated. I'm feeling bad for keeping them so long, but we did our best!
