Christopher looked well put together with his gray plaid blazer over a black shirt and well fitted light denim jeans.
He added shoes that were brown with black tips.
His wife also had on a gray blazer. She wore it over a light beige satin tank top and wore white slacks with blue tasseled loafers as she held onto a multi-colored purse.
Her hair was worn short as she had a golden tan.

In August he said he was a strict parent when it comes to education.
The actor said although he is a very loving father he will not accept any lack of effort or slip in standards when it comes to their academic work.
Speaking to America’s Closer magazine, he said: ‘I think my kids would call me a little crazy. I’m very physical, very affectionate. I’m also very disciplined and focused on education. That’s one thing that was instilled in me, one place in life where there’s no compromise.’

Family man Meloni’s wife Doris is an artist and he admits that is her ‘biggest fan’.
He added: ‘She does mostly realistic, figurative pieces.’
Meloni played Elliot Stabler on ‘Law & Order: Special Victims Unit’ for 12 seasons before leaving the role in 2011, only to reprise his most famous part in his new spin-off series ‘Law & Order: Organized Crime’ and in an ‘SVU’ return opposite Mariska Hargitay as Captain Olivia Benson in the story ‘Return of the Prodigal Son’.

Although he played Stabler from 1999 to 2011, Meloni was nervous about reprising his most famous TV role.
He said: ‘Gearing up to re-introduce my character through the ‘SVU’ vehicle was really rather nerve-racking. Very difficult. But within a couple of days, I settled down or found whatever it is I needed to find, and everything has been really smooth sailing.’
Stable job: He played Stabler from 1999 to 2011; seen here with Hargitay, Dann Florek as Captain Donald Cragen, Michelle Hurd as Detective Monique Jefferies in 1999
