As the car pulled into Aunt Mary's long driveway, the view of the house and grounds opened before them.

  "Wow! Look at that!" Emma cried, "What a cool place to live! Are all of your relatives rich, Kacey?"

  Kacey chuckled, "No, not all of them. But this house has been in the family for over a century."

  The girls loved the colorful hanging baskets of flowers on the front porch, and the park-like front lawn. The huge, three-story house was a Victorian masterpiece, complete with decorative white trim and pointed turrets. Pulling into the driveway revealed a beautiful garden in the back with an arched trellis laden with purple flowers.

  "Your aunt must have a green thumb!" Ava remarked.

  "She does love her flowers," Kacey agreed.

  They all carried their luggage to the front door and knocked.
