Princess loves to sniff everywhere and that's the very first thing she did
when we got home.

First thing Holly did, when we got home was run in my sons room and dump! 
No, she had been out but when we got back, it rained for 3 days and I'm not
sure if she was nervous or if she just didn't feel like going out in the
rain!  But, that stopped really quick!
