Hanging with the Obamas

My very kind and generous friend and coworker, Peg, volunteers for the White House Visitors Center and was able to get my husband and I two tickets to the White House National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony last night.  It was awesome (and freezing!).

The stage set up at the beginning.

The White House - the Obamas are leaving.

The National Christmas Tree - before it was lit.

The sound stage.

Pre-show with free hot chocolate.

The Washington Monument.

Husband and tree - still pre-lit.

Barack.

Now it is lit up!

Me and husband after the tree was lit.  Brrrrr.

BB King.

Maroon 5.
