We love to camp over Memorial weekend every year. This year we tried a new camping spot. It was new to my kids and Zeke, but for me it was the camp where I went to Girls Camp many times as a young women. Ensign Ranch has grown a lot since I was a young girl, and taking my family there was a whole new experience. We loved it and they were all great at letting me reminisce a little about my time spent there as a teenager.
Here was our home in the woods.
The first thing we did was take Lydia and Jacob on horse rides. They both loved it. 
Jacob was a bit timid at first to get on a big horse. (He has yet to ride a pony)
After watching Lydia ride we was excited and had a great time.
The kids and some grown ups enjoyed riding in the back of the truck around the campground. It was convenient to be able to haul some many bodies around.
Zeke is always up for the high adventure stuff. 
The main reason we love to camp is so we can spend time together as a family away from the TV, phone, computer etc.
The kids had fun carving sticks all weekend. We came home with several walking sticks.
The ranch has several horses. Lydia and her friend McKenzie feel in love with them.
On Saturday we enjoyed a fun time on this great slip and slide.
Lydia was a little nervous about going down the slide, but she enjoyed covering her friends in all the tubes. 
Landon, Mason and myself rode horses one evening. This was the boys first time on horse and the first day of the season their horses had done trail rides. It was pretty exciting at the beginning of the ride when Landon's horse decided to turn around and go back to the barn. Landon did great and remembered all the pointers he was given in our instruction video. Both boys told us that was their favorite activity that weekend. Landon
