Huggy Bear

It's been a pretty quiet week for Christine and her gang (aka her Mom and Dad, aka her loyal servants). With the weather being as dreary and wet as it has been we've been staying close to home most days. We did get visiting to Grandpa's house yesterday where Christine got to hang out while Ben and I went to the movies (Casino Royal - two thumbs up). Christine was apparently a "doll" for Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Mike and we all got a chance to visit afterwards.

Today we've had a very domestic day of church, grocery shopping, laundry, housework and the annual viewing of the Santa Claus Parade on TV. Christine has been running around getting into trouble wherever she can find it. She's also become very cuddly as of late with lots of hugs to go around to whoever asks for them. Of course the one being that never has to asks for hugs but gets more than anyone else is Molly the dog. Several times a day Christine will go up to Molly and give her a hug (if Molly will stand still enough to receive one). So below is a picture of my two girls hanging out and enjoying each other's company.
