Calendar: UI shows two months worth of events at a time but calendar widget does not update to reflect that

In sites where the range has been set to more than a month at a time, the calendar widget should show the appropriate range. It does not if the range is over one month.

@amckenz Can you come up with a UI recommendation on next steps to solve this? If we need a developer, just document what you need to happen here and let me know and I'll find someone to take on the work.

@ashleykolodziej the solution that I discussed for https://github.com/bu-ist/responsive-foundation/issues/99 can be reflected here as well. In terms of making different layouts/amounts of information appear we need to get a developer involved that is comfortable with this plugin.

Let me know how I can help. It sounds like a bunch of calendars for each month wouldn't be an ideal way to solve this issue. If there are other ways to represent this data, I'm happy to investigate. We have all the event data, its just a matter of displaying it in the right format that makes most UX sense. We can't use the WP plugin you mentioned due to BU Calendar being the source of data and not WP post-types, but we can certainly borrow its UI ideas 😄

Oh yeah I wasn't suggesting to use that plugin; I was just using it as a UI example! If you could help that would be awesome. Ashley is going to get a project going 😄

Let me know if you guys have questions, I know my writing is kind of messy. For the third layout I was thinking underneath the calendar maybe it'll give a detail about the current day (or currently selected day)
