The official White House photographer, Pete Souza, recently published an album of photos of the First Family. Included in the bunch is the one above, taken on December 19, 2009 with the caption, "The First Lady, Malia and Sasha were outside in the midst of the snowstorm playing with the family dog, Bo."
Looks like fun was had by all. Wonder if they've built a "snowdog" in Bo's likeness on the White House lawn yet?

What a great surprise for visitors touring the White House!
I just love the little boy who asks if Bo has a tongue!
