Obama Daughters Arrive On Martha's Vineyard

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama were joined by their children Sasha and Malia Thursday for the remainder of the family's Martha's Vineyard vacation.

The White House has confirmed that Sasha and Malia Obama arrived on Martha's Vineyard Thursday afternoon to spend the rest of the week and weekend with their parents.

This is the first time the girls have arrived separately from their parents. Malia and Sasha have been at camp, according to news reports.

The Obama family is scheduled to depart the Island Sunday.
