WASHINGTON-- First Lady Michelle Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha are in Aspen on a Presidents Day weekend vacation, according to the Aspen Daily News. The paper is reporting that they are staying at the home of Chicago's Jim and Susan Crown.

Last year, Mrs. Obama and her daughters spent the Presidents Day long weekend in Vail and Beaver Creek, Colorado.

Jim Crown is the president of Henry Crown and Company and a major fund-raiser for Obama, in 2008 and again for his 2012 re-election.

Mrs. Obama was in Aspen last July for a high-dollar fund-raiser at Crown's home.
