For the past few years, Jon has been saving 2 of his vacation weeks to take together in October. We miss the crowds pretty much anywhere we go, we get to celebrate 2 birthdays while he's around and since we love October, it just works for us. We started vacation with a free hockey game. The Lake Erie Monsters lost their home opener, but the boys got bottomless popcorn and had a blast.
We kept Sam in school last Monday and Tuesday, but pulled him out for his birthday last Wednesday. Sam wanted to head to the nature center for his birthday. The first thing we saw when we got there was a turtle climbing some rocks then falling over on his back.
We spent a ridiculous amount of time standing there watching the turtle eventually turning himself over. It was kind of cool to watch and everyone cheered for him when he fixed himself.
We explored, the kids put on a puppet show and tolerated a few pictures.
The rest of Sams day was filled with going out to breakfast with dad, playing with friends, donuts for dinner, Royal Rangers and a late night ice cream run. I think he had a good day.
