Today, First Lady Michelle Obama greeted the official White House Christmas Tree, which arrived via horse-drawn carriage. Daughters Sasha and Malia and First Dog Bo also helped welcome the tree.
This year’s official tree is a 19-foot Fraser Fir
that was selected in early October and harvested this month at Peak Farms in
Jefferson, North Carolina.. It will be displayed throughout the holiday season
in the Blue Room. Members of the National Christmas Tree Association have
presented the official White House Christmas Tree for display in the Blue Room
each year since 1966.
