The article I have chosen to write about is “Ninety-eight Christmas Trees and a Gingerbread White House: Jill Biden Unveils This Year’s White House Holiday Decorations, Designed to Evoke Wonder and Joy”.
The holiday season is a time of joy and celebration, and the White House is no exception. This year, Jill Biden has unveiled this year’s White House holiday decorations, which include ninety-eight Christmas trees and a gingerbread White House. The decorations were designed to evoke the spirit of the season, and to bring joy and wonder to the visitors who will be coming to the White House during the holiday season.
The decorations this year are particularly special, as they represent a snapshot of America in the midst of the pandemic. The ninety-eight trees feature ornaments that honor essential workers and those who have been affected by the pandemic. The gingerbread house was constructed by the White House pastry team and features a mini Oval Office, a miniature version of the South Lawn, and a replica of the White House Christmas tree.
This year’s decorations also include a special tribute to the military. The Gold Star Tree honors those who have lost loved ones in the military or in the line of duty, while the Gold Star Wreath honors those who are currently serving in the armed forces.
The White House decorations this year are a beautiful reminder of the joy and hope that the holiday season brings, even during difficult times. By honoring essential workers, those affected by the pandemic, and members of the military, the decorations are a reminder of how much we can appreciate and give thanks for in our lives. It’s a reminder of the power of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and a reminder that we can all find joy and wonder in the holiday season.
