White House Holidays

My own apartment is pathetically decorated, so I am living vicariously through the White House’s decorations this year. It’s the People’s House, after all!

At Holidays 2012 | The White House you can get all of the following:

  • A recipe for Ginger Crinkle cookies from The White House Pastry Kitchen [I’ll be baking them next week!]
  • A download of the official 2012 Holiday Bookmark [It features Bo!]
  • Instructions on how to make your own holiday snow globe, one of the featured decorations in the White House this year [Yay for arts & crafts time!]

You can also look at pictures of the holiday decorations through the years (I love that the Kennedy family took a sleigh ride on the South Lawn), and watch a video of the First Family turning on the Christmas lights.

And, finally, there’s this video with BO! (Thanks to Sarah for first sharing it)

    Very inspiring! I’m not much for decorating either. We get a tree and hang up the stockings, and that’s about it. I really should do more.

    Happy Tuesday!

    I love having holiday decor, but I do less of it if no one is coming over to see it. Still, gotta have the Christmas tree.

    Bo is cute 🙂

    Bo! He’s so adorable. I was actually watching a behind-the-scenes about the decorations the other day and I saw them putting together the life-sized Bo replica. I’m also ridiculously thrilled that the National Christmas Tree came from the county where I live.
