The festive season at the White House officially commenced as First Lady Melania Trump welcomed the arrival of the official Christmas tree. The majestic 18.5-foot Fraser fir, sourced from West Virginia, was transported in grand style by a traditional green carriage drawn by two Clydesdale horses. The tree made its ceremonial entrance at the Portico of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, marking the beginning of holiday preparations at the presidential residence. Mrs. Trump, known for her elegant approach to White House traditions, personally oversaw the event, emphasizing the importance of family and togetherness during the holiday season. The tree will serve as the centerpiece of the White House decorations, which are expected to reflect a theme of unity and celebration. This annual tradition, steeped in history, continues to symbolize the warmth and joy of the holiday spirit in the nation’s capital.
