Children take photos with Santa Claus during the celebration of the arrival of the Capitol Christmas tree at Joint Base Andrews, Md., Nov. 24, 2013. The tree traveled more than 5,000 and stopped in 22 different communities. The U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree will be lit by Speaker of the House John A. Boehner during a ceremony on Dec. 3 on the Capitol’s West Front lawn at 5 p.m. This year’s tree is an Engelmann spruce from the Newport Ranger District of the Colville National Forest in Washington State.
