October 2019

At the beginning of October we were all able to drive up to Bethesda for a long weekend.  We had a ton of fun going to the Calleva Enchanted Forest with my mom, Colton, Adrienne, Otto, Rory, and Abby.  The kids were so adorable in their costumes.  Owen had been begging us to go to the aquarium since our weekend in Charleston, so we went up to Baltimore on Sunday.  Milton's favorite part is running around the ramps in the section with the sharks.  We got to see the dolphin display too which was fun.  On Monday we went to the Zoo with my mom and it was a beautiful day to walk around.  For lunch we went to a fun Greek place by the Cleveland Park metro station.  Owen got to participate with our ward's primary program and he did fantastic! He stayed up on the podium the entire time and got up and said his line (with assistance) when they asked him to.  We went to Wendy's afterward in celebration.  My memories of primary programs are hiding under the bench and not wanting to go up at all. Milton and I went to the children's museum in Jacksonville that he really enjoyed.  On the cold winter days we will probably go over after dropping off Owen. There was a fall festival at Owen's school which was a ton of fun.  Milton's preferred game was rolling the pumpkins.  Both of the boys' favorite thing to do at the festival was go on the bounce houses.
