On Friday, Barack and Michelle Obama arrived in the UK for a two-day visit, and they stopped by Windsor Castle for a spot of tea with Queen Elizabeth II, who celebrated her 90th birthday yesterday, and her husband, Prince Philip. 

For the big 9-0, the Obamas gave her a personalized photo album documenting her many encounters with American presidents throughout her lifetime. She, in turn, coached them precisely on where they could sit in her living room because she is the Queen of Sass. 

Afterwards, they headed to Kensington Palace for a small dinner with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and perpetual third-wheel Prince Harry.

They seemed pretty chummy as they greeted each other in classic English weather.

Prince Harry even managed to squeeze in a cheeky kiss, protocol be damned!

Once inside, Prince Harry clearly decided to show everyone his best Indiana Jones impression. Caption contest anyone? 

But the best moment by far was when they met Prince George, who got to stay up past his bedtime for the special visit. That rocking horse. That luscious robe. I die.
