Meridian temple open house.
During the month of October and early November, the Meridian Idaho LDS temple, which was recently completed was open to the public. Our family scheduled a tour and brought Lily’s cute friend Katherine to tour it with us. This was our third time to tour a brand-new (or renovated) temple, which I consider quite a blessing, considering that all three temples we have toured are within a 1 1/2 hour drive of our home. How we got to lucky to have three temples so close is beyond me.
The temple was beautiful, and it was fun to talk with the kids about the significance of each of the rooms and the ordinances that are performed there. It’s always a humble reminder of how closely linked heaven and earth are and our connection with our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
We took a picture at the end of the tour to commemorate the experience. It was fun to add another face to our “family” picture.
