Halloween with Grandmom and Pop-Pop

Last Saturday we had our first Terps game to go to since the first weekend in October. Their away and bye schedule worked out really well with my surgery and recovery schedule, so I didn't have to miss any games. Since my dad and Jeremy (and Jill this week!) go to the games with Kyle and I, my mom always watches Peyton and Hunter.

Side note story: Kyle had to go to the store to buy some ice to put in the cooler to keep the drinks cold. He took Peyton with him. When they got into the car, Peyton randomly asked Kyle if he would take him to buy me some flowers. Kyle said that it was completely Peyton's idea and totally out of the blue. So Kyle did take Peyton to the store and he picked these special flowers out for me. So pretty and I felt so loved!

Anyway, we decided to put the boys into their Halloween costumes so that my parents, Jeremy, and Jill could see them in person. I knew I wouldn't feel like driving the kids around to see everyone on Halloween day. I wanted to save my energy for trick-or-treating with them in the evening. Here is me and my little football. Isn't Hunter so cute?!

Of course Grandmom and Pop-Pop came armed with gifts. They gave Peyton this little mummy, who had candy in his bag, and a light up pumpkin toy. Peyton also scored a little cow figurine, matching his costume.

Hunter got a dancing ghost, which he loves to watch dance across the table. He also got a light up ghost toy and a fish teether.

One more picture of my little cutie in a special 1st Halloween bib that my parents brought over.

After the mini-Halloween festivities, we all left for the game. The Terps ended up winning their homecoming game against Wake Forest 62-14. We left at the end of the third quarter though because the wind was gusting, it was pretty chilly, and the game was already a blowout.
While we were at the game, my mom took the boys to Clarkland Farm. They have a bunch of the old nursery rhyme scenes from the Enchanted Forest. There is also a petting zoo, which Peyton seemed to love. He got to pet a goat and a sheep, and he even rode a horse. My mom bought Hunter and Peyton little pumpkins and Peyton also got a tractor toy. I think both boys had fun at the farm. They both slept late Sunday morning since they were so worn out!
