The Obama daughters came home to a surprise late last week. They were
apparently quite delighted to see a brand-new swing set in the back of
the White House, according to the Associated Press. The set was
installed on the south ground of the White House within eye shot of the
Oval Office, where the President works. The girls played outside in the
cold Washington, D.C., weather for almost an hour, enjoying four swings, a
slide, a climbing wall and climbing ropes. There is also a picnic table
that has all 44 presidents names etched into it. A spokesperson for the
First Lady remarked that the girls were “really, really excited.”—WLW
