Nanson nodded reassuringly. "You look perfect, absolutely stunning!"

Violet looped her arm through Nanson's. "Let's go in, then."

Little White, their family dog, trotted over to the door.

"I'll get it! I'll get it! Little White, go get Annie out here!" Carole instructed quickly.

"Sure," Little White seemed to understand and padded off to the other room.

Carole hurried over to answer the door.
