Giving Thanks
Thursday, November 22, 2012 at 10:11 PM 
As has become Thanksgiving tradition, the Obama family volunteered at the Capitol Area Food Bank in Washington, D.C. yesterday. For the occasion, Mrs. O wore a burgundy and blue argyle sweater under a leather baseball style jacket with constrast sleeves.
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! x Mrs. T
P.S. There's a great quote from Anna Wintour on Mrs. O's style influnce, here.

Happy Thanksgiving back to you, Mrs. T. Thank you, for giving us this forum.
And thanks for another 4 years!
This looks like the same day Pres. Obama, Sasha and Malia pardoned the turkey. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2012/11/6-reasons-to-be-thankful-about-the-economy-today/265546/ Maybe it's the camera angle, but Sasha looks taller than her dad! She is a beautiful young woman, as is her sister : )
I like the combination of blue and burgundy - very seasonal.
Mrs. O's attire for the WH tree delivery: http://obamadiary.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/michelle-christmas-tree1.png?w=655. Would you mind doing a recap of her styles when receiving the WH tree?
Thank you!
All of those children will have great memories for life of personally meeting the Obama's. I hope they cherish the moment. I would.
I agree Jestina! My thoughts as well! Wish I could!!! Teaching service by example is so important for our young people! (Can't wait to hear about FLOTUS' skirt she wore yesterday accepting the Christmas tree Mrs. T!) Beautiful!
Always good that the entire family volunteers on Thanksgiving.
It"s really heart warming to see The First Family and Robinsons helping others. I saw some pics on Gettyimages and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves as well. These are memories that everyone involved will have and, as Jestina said, cherish.
Job well done!
Love their unpretentious character. The fact that…and I really love this – when they meet and greet people everywhere, folks are moving to the front and trying to talk with them, shake hands for such and unforgettable moment to meet the President and Mrs. O. It’s the same way they make “each person” they meet “feel very important and special to them” This photo is a good example of that.
The Girls are greeting people more now and with such grace and warmth, so mature for their age, a great reflection of their Parents. Happy Thanksgiving.
I loved the pictures of Mrs. Obama and the girls receiving the Christmas tree. I hope there will some information about the girls outfits. They looked so great.
look like Malia is swapping clothes with her mom. Here is Malia wearing the same jacket http://www.youtube.com/watch? feature=player_embedded&v=futGSgO7aoY#!

Looks like those kids are rocking the neon fashion forward look.
