As they have been for much of their time in office, the Obamas couldn't help but be completely adorable before leaving the White House for the last time.

Meanwhile, the peaceful transfer of power did hit at least one awkward moment, when Melania kindly gave Michelle a gift from Tiffany's that... no one seemed to know what to do with.
