Date to the temple and the river!!!

Since we just moved into a new place (which costs a lot of $) and we got a new car (which also costs tons of $)  we really have no money for the extras in life.  So we decided since we had a tank full of gas and a night off together we would drive to Idaho Falls and go to the visitors center at the temple and then walk around the river.  It was such a nice day and a wonderful drive together. 

Jacob was really interested in the family search center in the visitors center.  He was looking up some family on his Mom's side. I made him leave because I didn't want to be driving home in the dark but we will have to go back before to long.

The Christus.  They have some benches right in front of it and they play a recording just like they do in the Salt Lake Visitors Center.

This area was all about "I am a Mormon".  I would love for my house to look like this.   I was very impressed by how all of the areas looked so different but were so cool.

Jacob and I in front of the temple.  We walked around it and then headed to the river, which is across the street.

So Beautiful

I didn't want to walk far because I had already done my 7 mile walk for the day and so my legs were a little tired.  We walked to a new area of the river we had never been to so it was fun to look around.

Just a bridge across the river but I thought that it looked really pretty.

Just me!!!  I love the shirt I am wearing and it is the first time it fit me.  Nicole gave it to me when I was in Eugene in July.  Now that I have lost almost 30 pounds it fits so good.

They are building a Japanese garden.  I can't wait it looks like it is going to be so cool.  When they are finished we will go and take some pictures.

I sure do LOVE this man!!!!! <3

We decided to walk complete around the path which was three miles.  I saw this on the path and knew it was meant for me (lol) because after my 7 miles earlier in the day and then 3 miles with Jacob my legs were so sore and I was exhausted.

On our way back and almost to the car.  I love that we can so something simple like go on a walk and have so much fun doing it together.
