The camping season kicked off early June with a trip to gorgeous Turquoise Lake with some of our very best friends. We missed our annual friends camping trip last year, and the kids were disappointed, so we made sure to get one on the calendar early. I've always wanted to check out Turquoise Lake and lucky for us there were some openings. Of course when you're camping in early June at an elevation of 10,000 ft. it's not for the faint of heart.
When we arrived on Friday afternoon we were stunned by the beauty of the scenery - the crystal clear water, the snow-capped peaks in the background, and a beach! Yes a mountain-y beach! We envisioned setting up for the day, let the kids swim and fish, and we'd be back in a Mexico paradise. So that's what we did! The weather was gorgeous all day, and the kids enjoyed fishing, selling sand treats, and even swimming.

The kids sneaking off into the woods - at least we have nothing to worry about...yet.
Even though the nights were chilly, the trip was a blast. It always amazes me when we get all the kids together and how well they play and just enjoy being together, like time stands still.
