Floor puzzle

Uncle Erik and Auntie Lisa gave Monica this puzzle for her birthday and we had a blast putting it together today. Anton and I are going to get a serious crash course on state capitols and state nicknames. Monica wanted me to comment on each state as we put the puzzle together. I did okay until we got to a few like Missouri and Kansas. It was also hard to explain why Hawaii and Alaska are "next to each other" even though Alaska is cold and Hawaii is hot!!!
