We went camping to Big Bear with some of our friends last week. It was quite hot the week we were there and so we spent the whole week in the lake or near the lake. I loved that campground. The kids rode their bikes a lot, we had bathrooms and it was pretty close to the lake. I am grateful for great friends who let us borrow their trailer to camp in. In addition we had other friends we let us borrow their kayak.
We took turns going out on the kayak and watching the kids on the shore. The kids stayed in the water almost the whole time because it was so warm!
The boogie boards are also a good idea when going to a lake. They enjoyed kicking around on them and Jarom, Ali and Ashling went all the way to the buoys on them. I also swam to the buoys and found out when I got out there that we are not allowed to do that. I got yelled at but I am glad it was after my nice long swim.
