Temple Open House

On Thursday we went down to Twin Falls to go to the temple open house. We enjoyed going through the temple and see the beautiful rooms. They really personalized the temple for the region that it is in. All the paintings in the temple are done by Idaho artists and the Idaho state flower (the Syringa) is used in the stain glass, carpet, wallpaper, etc.

After we did a tour, we took some pictures on the temple grounds. As you will see in some pictures below, there are several landscaping rock which match the Snake River Gorge. Keagan had a great time climbing up and down and all around the rocks.

Afterwards, we drove down to Shoshone Falls which is a few miles down the road and had a picnic lunch. Here are some pictures of our adventures.

That looks like a great way to spend time together as a family, and teach Keegan about the Temple. It looks like a beautiful building!

The Twin Falls Temple really is so beautiful. I went with the YW in our ward, I really wish our whole family could have been there. I also love your picture of the falls. They are beautiful.
