It's that time of year again, a time when everypony and their families gather together to share in the Hearth's Warming spirit. At least that's what Sweetie Belle knows this time is supposed to be. With her parents stuck in Canterlot and her friends with their own families for the festivities, Sweetie Belle is snowed into the boutique with nopony for company but a completely booked Rarity and her grumpy cat. Or at least, so she thinks when she stumbles across an old box filled with Rarity's foalhood treasures.
