Some Photos

Linden: "So long, Maman! Have a good day! We'll wait here until you get back!"

Autumn: "Oh dear. She's got the flashy thing pointed at us. She's going to flash the flashy thing. Oh dear."



Now here are some photos of the results of the campus florification army, all put in with insane expedience.
