Prince William and Catherine Score Seeds, Honey, And Laptops From Obama Family
To honor the recent wedding between Prince William and Princess Catherine (now known formally as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge), President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama decided to present a mix of nature and technology. As a donation to the Charitable Gift Fund setup by the Royal couple, Prince William and Princess Catherine the Obamas gifted laptops to PeacePlayers International – which aims to unite, educate and inspire young people in divided communities through basketball (which, as most know, is the President’s favorite sport).
During a personal meeting with the Royal family this week, the President and First Lady presented Prince Charles and Prince William and Princess Catherine with seeds and plants from the gardens at Monticello, the plantation home of Thomas Jefferson, Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington, and (according to Hello!) from the South Lawn White House garden. They were contained within a handcrafted box made from the wood of a magnolia tree that came down on the White House grounds during a February 2009 snowstorm.
