Malia and Sasha Obama also attended the dinner -- their first.

President Obama got emotional when he noted his daughters' attendance. "When I first elected to this office, Malia was just 10 and Sasha was 7. And they grow up too fast. Now Malia is going off to college...and I'm starting to choke up," he told guests.
