It's time to deck the halls in D.C.: This year's White House Christmas tree has arrived, marking the first time that President Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden will celebrate the holiday at the People's House in their new roles. Dr. Jill Biden announced the arrival of this year's Christmas tree in an Instagram post on the @flotus account, captioned "It's here!"

In the photo, two Clydesdale horses can be seen pulling the carriage that holds the tree, complete with a banner that reads "White House Christmas Tree 2021." Did we mention the red bow-clad wreaths and matching wheels? Now this is the right way to kick off the season (and a win for team "tree before Thanksgiving"!).

This holiday season will be the first time that First Lady Jill Biden will decorate the People's House for Christmas—and we're sure it will be as grand and merry as always. It's long been a tradition for first ladies to outfit the White House for the holiday season, and this year is sure to be no different.
