This makes us very emotional.
Family Christmas cards are a very big tradition in the States and the White House holiday card is sent out every year.
The card from the POTUS and family is sent out to political supporters, and members of the media.
This year they could have sent out a blank card and we still would have cried about it, considering it’s the Obama’s last one.
While the card they sent out wasn’t completely blank it was very simple and very bittersweet.

The baby blue card features a golden snowflake border around a polaroid style image of the first family.
What we absolutely love about this picture is how genuinely happy and unposed the family look.
We really will miss this family.
Many of those who were lucky enough to receive the card shared their appreciation on social media.
Received the final White House Christmas card today. Glad to have played a small part in electing @POTUS in 2008 and 2012. #BestPOTUSEver pic.twitter.com/U0efzWSfOd
