It’s Easter again at The White House! Which means Egg Rolls down the South Lawn, childrens book readings by the prez and…yoga! It’s an Easter tradition! The theme of this year’s annual event is “Get Up and Go,” playing into First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” initiative to prevent childhood obesity. As part of the Easter fun, the Obamas hosted yoga yet again, and we have pics! About 30,000 people attended the event, and the 10 -15 minute yoga sessions went on throughout the day with 10 to 50 kidlets at a time.
Yes, that is the Easter Bunny doing Virabhadrasana III, with his pal the blue gummy bear?

Just thought I’d point out since I know you “love” the store so much– Those last four pictures of the teachers… every stitch of clothing they’re wearing is from lululemon.
