Benetton Photo Shoot - Part 3

Here's the last installment.

They got tons of junk food!
They had more chips and sweets that day than they have in 3 months.
Grace is snackin' on some delicious kimbap.
 
Runnin' around just bein' kids.
 
As I said - Tristan had a great time.

Gettin' ready for a little tug o' war.
This little boy didn't want to loose to a couple of girls!
It was fun to watch - he was taking it totally seriously instead of just leaning into it to snap a few pics.
 
They ended up putting an adult at the opposite end but the two older kids were still serious about winning this match.
 
Grace was just having a grand ol' time.
 
The girls just collapsed after the shoot.
 
This is another of my favorites.
She just looks so happy and like she's just had a great time.
 
Alas, they weren't quite done...
 
They each got to keep their ponchos.
Would've accepted a few other pieces of clothing (minus the purple boots), but they weren't offered...
Grace loves the poncho, and has worn it a couple of times, despite the fact that it has been really hot!

But the poncho came in really handy when it started doing this while we were waiting for our driver:
The wipers were going at a fast pace, but this is what they were up against...
 
The reason this picture is blurry, is because of the torrential downpour that started just as everyone was loading everything up.
Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of the kids under the blanket as it started to rain, but it was coming down so hard I didn't want to risk getting my camera soaked...


After we went to the PX and bought the kids some dry clothes, we headed over to the Dragon Hill Lodge to have some supper before we headed home.  As we were walking up to the entrance, Grace saw these dragons and said, "Mommy, take my picture!" 
Geez kid, haven't you had your picture taken enough today??
 
This pagoda was situated atop a hill that had a beautiful waterfall running over it.
 
As we were leaving I had to snap a picture of my handsome prince with the dragon as well.


Even though it was hot and miserable, we all had a good day.  Grace said that she had fun and would like to do it again, but she'd have to think about it if she had to do winter clothes in the summer again...  Ms. Sue did say that she thought that she'd like to have Grace and Tristan modeling together next time.  We'll see if we receive any further calls.
