The moment camp was over (in fact, I think we had arranged to skip out on the last day), it was time to head over to Ensign Ranch for our yearly Linda Loo Weekend--which also happened to be 4th of July! I won't take time to talk about the Ranch in detail, because I know I've already gone on and on in previous posts about all the things we love about this church-owned property in Cle Elum, WA. I'll just say, like always, we had a fun, wild, and crazy time together ...
Hanging around camp.
Playing games.
Being friends (J&J)!
Sometimes getting in trouble:(
Finding crazy things like a snake in the middle of eating a little creek fish--huh?!
And playing into the night:-).
Of course we also loved all the water activities at Ensign ...
like the rope swing!
(sadly, Grandma's valiant act of retrieving the rope cost her an iPhone--oops!!)
Leach-infested lake!
And definitely the giant slip-n-slide--oh, yeah!
Grandma hung out in the beautiful sun.
While the rest of us got crazy wet.
And of course it wouldn't be a Linda Loo Weekend without a family talent show.
I'll let the pictures speak for themselves!!
Other than to say that this thing went on into the night--we just don't know when to stop;).
The only disappointment this year, was that the traditional 4th of July fireworks show that the ranch generally puts on was cancelled because of a wildfire concern. We have enjoyed many years of those fireworks shows and were pretty bummed to go without, but hanging out together was pretty amazing all the same!!
