Philadelphia Temple

I can't believe the Philadelphia Temple is finally open. After eight long years it's finally complete and now we have a temple just 40 minutes away from us. What a BLESSING it is and I am so very grateful for this beautiful building and all of the sacred work that takes place inside.

The building itself is gorgeous with it's colonial chandeliers, furniture, colors, etc. The tour took us through the baptistry, instruction room, bride's room, celestial room, and sealing room. The new meetinghouse, our future stake center, is just across the street and is awesome, too.

Rhonda and I touring the temple for the first time. We're laughing because Rhonda said I'm the worst "selfie" taker she's ever met. I'm not sure if that was a complement or insult?...
