O, Christmas Tree: Michelle Obama, daughters, Bo, receive White House Christmas tree

WASHINGTON — It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the White House.
Michelle Obama continued a decades-old tradition the day after Thanksgiving as she, daughters Malia and Sasha, and Bo, the family dog, witnessed the arrival of an 18-and-a-half-foot balsam fir tree from Wisconsin, hauled up the driveway by horse-drawn wagon and delivered to their doorstep Friday.
The Obamas walked around the carriage and inspected the tree before giving it a thumbs-up. But that was merely a formality; White House staffers traveled to Wisconsin last month and picked out that tree.
The fir is headed for the oval-shaped Blue Room, where it will become the centerpiece of the White House Christmas decorations. It will be decorated to honor Blue Star families, those with a loved one who has served or currently is serving in the armed forces.
The tree came from Schroeder’s Forevergreens near Neshkoro, Wis., owned by Tom and Sue Schroeder. It’s the first time one of their trees has made it to the White House. The couple earned the honor after winning a national contest — on their fourth try — sponsored by the National Christmas Tree Association.

Hello Ametia how are you
U.S. President Barack Obama’s daughter Malia walks with family dog Bo to receive the 2011 White House Christmas Tree at the White House in Washington, November 25, 2011.
Isn’t she just a model of grace and beauty? And that curly-haired fellow next to her ain’t so bad either.
Hey NCW,
Malia is the epitome of beauty & grace. Even Bo has grace, good manners and is well disciplined. The President & First Lady are role models indeed.
