President Barack Obama and his family are facing a bunch of “lasts” as the end of his term nears—final state dinner, final Easter Egg Roll, and now, final Halloween at the White House.
While the now-classic baby Popemobile costume was nowhere in sight, this was a pretty good ensemble get-up:

But you might be here to watch the first couple dance to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” and I don’t want to disappoint you.
Hopefully they’ll practice the routine in their free time come January, and have it down for Halloween in Kalorama next year.
Here are some of the local kids who got a chance to attend the celebration.
