the car pulled up in the driveway, the sound of gravel noticeable to Ella's ears. A small screech occurred when the car stopped. The dogs clawing at the car window waiting to get out.

I sigh, I don't want to look disappointed, but I am. 'Why did we have to move so far, I don't want to start over...' I thought. 

"Okay, We're here!" my mom said excitably twirling the car keys on her finger. I open the car door and step out, the sound of the gravel coming in contact with my feet. I look up at the massive house, all white, a balcony shown in the middle of the house, this house should be considered a mansion, it was that big. I looked over at my mom with sad eyes. My mom's smile turned to a frown, "Oh honey, don't give me that look." she opened the back door of the car and Sadie and Maggie jumped out and started running all over the yard. Mittens jumped out behind them her paws gracefully landed on the ground. She sat down and started licking her paws clean. I smiled at my pets, knowing they don't have a care in the world. I looked back at the house then my mom who has opened the trunk and started unloading the boxes. "Mom why did we have to move, I don't want to start over, What about my friends, our family?" my mom sighed. "honey, you know why, this is a big job opportunity for me Ella." "But" "your Dad and brothers will be here tomorrow." she walks up to the front door and unlocks it, she pushes it open and steps into the house. I sigh and whistle for Maggie and Sadie, I pick up one of the boxes and start walking in the house, mittens following behind. As soon as I walk in, I stare in amazement as I saw the chandelier hanging from the ceiling. It was gorgeous. I put the box down and wader around the new area, the one I will have to cal home. My mom smiles at me from across what I assumed was the kitchen and started walking out the door to get more boxes. 

I look up at massive stares that lead the hall upstairs. I walk all the way up and saw six rooms. I looked in each one. There was one that could fit two people in it, assuming that was gonna be my parents room, the next one was another room that could fit two people, my twin brothers, the other one was a one person bedroom, my other brothers room I assume. I looked at the one at the very end of the hallway. I opened the door, the door made a loud creak. I stepped in and looked around, there were large glass doors, that led to what looked like the balcony. There was another door in the bedroom that had a bathroom. I looked up to see a small chandelier. It was like the one downstairs but smaller. I walk out of the door and saw the other door in the hallway was another bathroom. 'This house is huge.' I thought to myself. I walk back down the stairs and start helping my mom with the boxes.

We unloaded some blow up mattresses from the trunk and we decided to choose our own rooms, my mom chose on of the two person rooms, an I chose the one with the small chandelier. I laid down on the mattress and looked at the ceiling. My thoughts raced, but my eyes were drowsy, My cat mittens hopped on the mattress and laid down next to me, while my dogs, Sadie and Maggie , laid next to the mattress on the floor. I closed my eyes and the next thing I knew I was fast asleep.
