This weekend started off with a bang! We were invited to the Annual Kim-tober Fest. This year the theme was "1985". After we searched the internet and wandered through Goodwill for ideas, it hit us...
It was 1985 when Wrestlemania started and the very first "Main Event" was Mr. T and Hulk Hogan vs who knows. The important part was we found our costumes!
We had a fantastic time at the party and met new people that were as crazy as we were.

Saturday we got everything ready for another fun (and cold) football game. This week Amy, Peter and Calvin were going to the game with me. It was Amy's first game since Michael Vick played here!
The tailgate was fantastic. (I think we are just starting to get the hang of this...) We had a pretty big crowded and lots of fun.
The game on the other hand we definitely an emotional roller coaster. It was the Orange Effect game and when I saw the team come out in ALL orange, I got worried. The last time we wore all orange (19 years ago) we got hammered by UVA and urban legend was Coach Beamer would never wear all orange again. I tried to but that thought out of my head but I couldn't help but wonder... In the end, we just couldn't get the job done.
To pour salt on the wound, ESPN just happened to catch a few of us on camera as time expired.

On Sunday, we headed out for a short day trip to Joe's Trees. It was the last day of there pumpkin patch and even though we had already had an evening with friends carving pumpkins...

We thought we would go enjoy being outside and enjoying the beautiful changing leaves.
Joe's trees is a fun place. We were able to chuck little pumpkins, go on a hay ride, check out a pretty empty pumpkin patch and run through the corn maze.
It was a nice distraction and a fun way to end the weekend.
