We decided to bring the fam to MV after our annual Chappool party and before we sent Chase off to college in an effort to squeeze every ounce of family time in before school started. And goodness am I so glad we did! This was S U C H a wonderful family trip…one that I would most definitely recommend! If you’ve got MV on your b ..read more

If you ask Chase, she expects her stuff to be exactly as she left it when she returns, but Campbell has a different plan in mind.

While her old bed was oh so adorable, yet we knew we wanted something a bit more substantial, sturdy, and something that would be comfortable for future guests.
