OK...so if I didn't have enough travels in the past month...I needed one more trip! So here comes Grandma Benson...oh yea and I got to see Carlee, Tanner and James too! Carlee and I visited NASA,The Sam Houston Battle Ground and the Battleship TEXAS!

FUN WITH GRANDMA AND PAPA!!

What a fun couple of weeks...we made play dough,road horses,had cook- outs,took a LOT of baths,read soooo many stories,did fire crackers,fished,caught skunks,swan in the pond(only Preslie!)mowed a ton of lawn,fed the cow,made cookies and had a million KISSES!!

Could life be any better? LOVE YOU DALLIN,PRESLIE and PORTER!!

NO DIAPERS IN CHINA!!!

This was one of the MOST interesting things to me! I kept asking anyone who spoke any little bit of English...how do you potty train the kids! They use these split pants and they squat them all over constantly! But as you can see...no diapers!

TASTES OF CHINA AND KOREA!

BBQ...anyone? I little cow head for me!!

The food was sooo incrediable...we enjoyed every meal...almost! But we tried EVERYTHING!!

MORE GREAT PICS!

JD and I loved our trip! Look at this fellow...he was making a homage trip to the Summer Palace north of Beijing. He didn't like me taking his picture, but I couldn't resist.

The next shot is a ric-shaw driver waiting for his next rider. And the last shot is from the China Wall...which was amazing!

CHINA AND KOREA!!

JD and I had an another exciting adventure this past couple of weeks...we traveled EAST...to the FAR EAST! It was so interesting and the food was fabulous, the people were gracious, and the weather was very HOT! We were also able to return to his old mission area and see how much the Church has grown. The Temple is on the site of his old chapel, his last area.(he burned his suit in that parking lot! what memories!) His Korean was amazing...the people were so impressed. By the end of the trip he was dreaming in Korean again!
