Christmas Eve in DC: Part #2 National Christmas Tree

After the ICE! event, we jumped back into the car and headed for the White House... sadly we forgot to swing by the Capitol building to see the other tree... but it was still fun.

We found street parking for free after driving around the block a couple times, then we hit up a street vendor for some much needed hot chocolate, and we were on our way to the White House! The National Christmas Tree and the Pathway to Peace sit in front of the White House on the Ellipse.

It was quite a site! We even found our home-state trees... check out the photos:


I would never voluntarily live where we do... but I am grateful that I've been able to see so many great things while being here.
