Last Day of School

After a short three weeks, it was already time to say goodbye to preschool and Coop! Kylie has had her eye on the grocery store cakes for our entire time here, so we let her pick one out for a little going away party. She chose the design and the message:

 Adiós Kylie

with love from Elsa of course!

Adiós "sisters" Tiane and Tiara!
