TF Falls Temple Open House


our family has had the chance to go to the temple open house in twin falls twice! once with my family while we there for the family reunion with my immediate family, aunt carolee, and shane and kaylee and once with ben's last weekend while we were in town for seth's baptism with everyone in the immediate famly minus jenny, plus sam's parents! the temple is beautiful and, of course, the church is so organized to have everything work the way it does with the throng of visitors. i especially love the mural of the falls and south hills...and all the natural light! (much different than boise) both times we have gone, i have felt a bit rushed with kids, getting office work done, and getting ben in the house so that we can go! but, finally, this past time, in the last spot of the tour, the sealing room, i looked around and i felt the spirit and knew that this was the house of the lord and that the covenants we make there are eternal! our families can be together forever...
