SPOTTED: THE OBAMAS AT THE ANNUAL 'NATIONAL CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTING CEREMONY'...(PICS)

Like the first families before them, the Obamas celebrated the lighting of the national Christmas tree last Thursday, December 9th.
Celebrity performances included rapper Common, Maroon 5, B.B. King and young Jackie Evancho, whose debut album beat out Rihanna for the #2 spot on the Billboard chart last week.
“This is a very proud holiday tradition. Snow or shine, in good times or in periods of hardship, folks like you have gathered with presidents to light our national tree,” he said.
“We thank their [military] families, who will mark this Christmas with an empty seat at the dinner table,” Obama said.
Picture perfect! Now, get back to work, Mr. President. We got mad problems, B!
