Tailgating at the OU/Missouri Game

I can't believe they actually let me put this on Facebook. They looked so cute in this picture. Kristen has started wearing lipstick (she usually wears lipgloss). I think she has matured so much in the last year out working in the world. Every now and then she says stuff and my jaw drops - I didn't think she was listening. She flew out today in the Chesapeake corporate jet to go on a pipe inventory up in Ohio/Pennsylvania. Pat (I guess you could call him her unofficial boyfriend) is driving down from where he lives in New York to take her to dinner tomorrow night. Next week, he is flying in to go to the OU/Texas game with her and she has strongly suggested (multiple times) that we get together to meet him after the game. They see each other about once a month around the country but talk every day by phone and text. This has been going on since May. He is a 5th year senior at one of the SUNY schools, majoring in accounting or finance.
