Idaho Temple Tour

Technically, the first temple we visited was over the border in Wyoming, but we'll overlook that little detail.  

You can see how the design was based off the historical tabernacle in town.

We made a wide U along the South of Idaho to catch the different temples.  It started with the Pocatello temple.  It is almost ready to be dedicated.

Next came Twin Falls.  It's a bit off the beaten path and you could tell it was very sunny that day.

The Meridian and Boise temples are close together.  I was blown away with how huge the Meridian temple is.  I wasn't expecting it to be quite so large. 

You can tell the Boise Temple was built in the 70s.  It has the same vibe as the Dallas, Chicago, and Vegas temples.

The last 2 temples we saw in Idaho were Rexburg (next to BYU Idaho) and Idaho Falls.

An interesting fact about the Idaho Falls Temple - it's the first temple in Idaho, because the town donated the land to the Church.  The town really wanted a temple there.  This temple also has a visitor's center, so of course, the kiddos wanted to go inside and enjoy it. 

The Rigby Idaho temple was just announced, so we'll have to go back when it's actually built.  We also went up to Montana to get the Billings Temple.  This is temple #75 for us.  That sounds like a lot until you realize there are 258!  We have our work cut out for us.
