"Looking forward to the memories we'll make in our new home!" she said.
After Trump's inauguration in January, the first lady and their 11-year-old son remained in their residence in Manhattan's Trump Tower while Barron finished the school year at Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School. In doing so, Melania Trump became the only first lady in recent memory to delay her move to the nation's capital.
Sunday's move occurred earlier than initially expected — a Politico report from last week said the first lady was set to move on Wednesday, June 14, coinciding with the president's 71st birthday.
Melania Trump's parents, Viktor and Amalija Knav, joined the Trumps on their flight to Washington. Politico reported last week that the Knavs had been helping take care of Barron in New York and would be making appearances at the White House.
