All well at the House of Chihuahuas.  Crystal the Corker (otherwise known as Chrissie) has declared war on socks, making off with any strays and delighting in distributing them repeatedly, playing a game of catch and tug of war and fetch and toss and and...she is snuggling in my lap right now, having spent a vigorous half hour barking at dad, who was mowing the lawn so they wouldn't get their precious paws wet and cold in the morning.

Chrissie is a total mooch hound, willing to eat anything, especially if it isn't hers.  The only thing she's managed to slurp that she didn't like is my coffee...she got a tongue in there when I wasn't looking and looked very confused.  If we don't watch her diet, she'll be the biggest fat little ballerina you ever saw.

Chrissie in these pix is dressed in a pink and brown raincoat with a fur collar and lining.  Katy has a too small blue sweater seen here all excited and barking at dad and the loud lawn mower!!!
