Ella rattled a bag of candy at Tatum. "This is my breakfast, can't start the day without candy" she said brightly. Looking over at her sister and Sera all snuggled, it was kind of cute. It would probably be worse to wake them to go walk in the freezing cold than ditch them here.

Ella pulled on her rain boots and busied herself with Maurey, dressing him in one of his many outfits. They may have only been staying a night but the temptation to dress Maurey up for the cold had been too great and her whole bag was full of doggy clothes. Fixing his scarf she clipped his leash on and grinned. "A walk sounds good. I love the snow!" Granted, Ella loved most kinds of weather, but it wasn't often you got to see snow.
