Walk Around the Falls!

So when we were up in Idaho, we had to stay in Idaho Falls because all of the hotels were taken in Rexburg. Mom got us a room in a hotel right across the street from the falls and Idaho Falls Temple. It had beautiful scenery and a walk way all around the falls. We decided on Saturday before we left to walk the whole thing and meanwhile take a detour to the Idaho Falls Temple Visitors Center. The walk was wonderful, it was so nice out, of course it was around 10:30 in the morning.
We walked half way around and went into the Visitors center. It was so fun. The sister missionaries walked right up to us and took us to the Christus statue to do a little audio show that usually goes with the statue. Afterwards there different little things to go look at and watch in different rooms so we did that and then we watched a 15 minute movie and I can't remember what it was called, but it was awesome!
We took some pictures at the temple and decided to walk the rest of the way back to the car. It was a great day. We met up with Keitra, Isaac, and Kathy (Keitra's mom, I hope I spelled her name right!) and went to lunch with them.
We then said our goodbyes and me and mom made the journey back home since she had to teach Young Womens the next day! It was quite the trip! It would have been better if Dad were able to make it. It has been hard for Dad and us not to be able to make a lot of the events this summer! We love you DAD and appreciate your hardwork! Thanks for the great example!

That sounds like something I would love! One day maybe you guys can take me there and we can walk around the falls again. I'm glad you had fun.
Love,
Heidi
