Best. Christmas.Present.Ever.
Unless it would be a digital camera that takes way better pictures than his iPhone.
(Dear Santa, please make sure Kevin gets a Nikon 10.2-Megapixel DSLR Camera with 18-55mm and 55-200mm NIKKOR Zoom Lenses before the next White House holiday party. Thank you.)
Clearly, Aaron Sorkin's set for The West Wing was astoundingly accurate.
Kevin is a keen student of history and loves architectural details. (We have that in common.)
(Isn't this where Michael Douglas tells Annette Bening, "Nice shoes" in The American President?)
Kevin writes: "Had about 7 Christmas cookies. Would have had more but they were watching."
I don't believe the hosts dusted off the Franklin Pierce china (1853-1857) for the buffet.
Dolley Madison was in attendance, however.
A view for the ages.
Haven't been to Washington, let alone a party at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, in I don't know when. I think it may be time to plan a visit.
Have you been to the Capitol? What did you see? What do you recommend? Where did you stay? Did you see a POTUS/FLOTUS while you were there? Kindly check in in the Comments section. Naperville Now loves to travel, even vicariously, which is much easier on her feet.
With thanks to Kevin for sharing his photographs.

What a wonderful opportunity and experience for him!
Way KOOOOLLL
I think Kevin was secretly being interviewed to see if he would be the next Secretary of State..........
That looked like fun, even if the number of cookies consumed was so low!
I was at the White House many years ago - on a tour, not at a party, alas.
WOW! Very cool...and awesome pictures.
