White House celebrates Easter with celebrities, athletes and yoga By Jonathan Easley - 04/06/12 04:32 PM ET
Actress Julianne Moore, singer Janelle Monáe, and tennis player Andy Roddick will be among the guests at the 134th annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House on Monday.
The event is centered around the first lady’s Let’s Move initiative, which promotes healthy, active lifestyles for children, and will include a yoga garden, obstacle course, instruction from players and coaches on professional sports teams, and healthy eating tips from celebrity chefs.
According to an administration press release, more than 30,000 people from around the country will attend, making it the largest public event of the year at the White House. The White House said that more than 200,000 people entered an online lottery for tickets.
Other celebrities scheduled to attend include actor Forest Whitaker, ABC news anchor Robin Roberts, U.S. Olympians Dominique Dawes and Michelle Kwan, and the National Football League’s Brian Orakpo.
a yoga garden
What the hell is a yoga garden? Are they trying to grow some yoga or what?
Funny. I always thought Easter had something to do with the Resurrection of Christ.
I don’t know if Muslims celebrate Easter.
” Funny. I always thought Easter had something to do with the Resurrection of Christ”
NO....they have 2 his and him homosexuals coming with their adopted son........
What happened to celebrating Easter for what it is. We don’t need slimy celebrities messing stuff up.

No kidding, huh? The liberals who write this pap have no idea how insulting this is.
Gawd don’t you know anything? A yoga garden is where they grow yoga plants that are then fed to cats who then regurgitate them to make yogurt.
Hey....If it's good enough for the children......
The good news....They won’t be there much longer.
Apparently Tim Thomas was not invited.
This how we’ve celebrated the death and Resurrection of Christ for years....by getting into the lotus position and reciving an autograph from Bono apparently.
and pickled pigs feet I bet.

Everything but Jesus.
This link would support that yoga should not be the focus this Holy season. http://www.letusreason.org/NAM1.htm
