First Lady Jill Biden unveiled the White House's 2022 holiday decor with the theme "We the People."
What she's saying: "When our country comes together, we are stronger. What we share is so much greater than the things that pull us apart. The Soul of our Nation is — and always has been — 'We the People,'" she said Monday at an event at the White House.
By the numbers: It took a week for more than 150 volunteers from across the country to install the decorations, which include:
- Seventy-seven Christmas trees.
- Over 83,615 holiday lights.
- Illustrations of both Biden pets, Willow the cat and Commander the German Shepherd.
- A menorah in the Cross Hall — made of wood from a Truman-era renovation — and sterling silver candle cups, per the AP.
- A White House made of gingerbread with 20 sheets of sugar cookie dough, 30 sheets of gingerbread dough, 100 pounds of pastillage, 30 pounds of chocolate, and 40 pounds of royal icing.
