President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden welcomed families to the White House on Monday for the famed Easter Egg Roll after a two-year hiatus due to COVID.
It's a "hoppy" day at the White House -- as the Easter Egg Roll returned Monday.
Following a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden continued the tradition of welcoming families to the South Lawn for the famed Easter Egg Roll although COVID cases are, once again, on the rise with the BA.2 variant.
"It means so much to see and hear the children and all the families here today," Biden said, joking that his job was to keep it from raining on the overcast Monday in Washington.
"The joy and the laughter is something that has been a wonderful tradition here for a long time," he added.
