Rummel Family: January 2015
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 8, 2015. December was a busy time of getting ready for Christmas. While I addressed envelopes for Christmas cards, Alex was working at school on his Christmas program. And Adam and Erin helped me bake lots of cookies! We drove to Jackson's for a day or two to play (we waited til New Years to do Christmas so Phil and Chelsey could be there) and then headed home. It was our first year home for Christmas. It felt so good to be home after being gone for 5 days! Tuesday, January 6, 2015.

Rummel Family: August 2013
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 21, 2013. First day of School! Alex started kindergarten last week and he loves it! It helped that the bus driver came by the house a day or two before school and they practiced how and when to cross the road. He even got to pick out his seat (they have assigned seats). And when we went to Meet Your Teacher night, we found that two of his friends from preschool were in his class! But Adam doesn't seem to mind Alex being gone all day, however we'll see how the year goes. We've had some r...

Rummel Family: July 2013
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 22, 2013. We put up a little pool for the kids over July 4th. They love it! It's been great since it's been so hot. But the other day we decided a trip to the lake was in order. :) I just took the kids for an overnight stay at Mom and Dad's, but it was a nice quick trip. The lake felt great and we even got to go down the water slide a few times. But mostly the kids just liked playing in the sand and rocks. :). This is a "Top Gun" plane. California, part 2 - Train ride. After the train ride u...

Rummel Family: June 2013
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 8, 2013. Alex started playing tball games a week before Memorial Day. He was so excited to get a hat and shirt that match! If you've never been to a tball game, they're a little slow but very entertaining! After the tball game we headed up to Warsaw to the Jackson's. Stuart and Barbara came from Germany for a visit, so that brought Phil and Chelsey too! It was so nice to meet Barbara in person and she will be a wonderful addition to the family. Alex graduated preschool in May too! Alex lov...

Rummel Family: October 2014
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Finally Adam's favorite time of year is here! Once Andy made it north, we drove to Mimi and Pop's house. The boys and Andy became farmers for the weekend. And boy, were they busy! So Monday morning they plowed some more. Erin even got to go for a ride and drive! Pop still has to harvest his beans and corn, but that can wait for a different day. The boys got to spend hours in a tractor and they loved every minute of it! Erin enjoyed playing inside with whatever she wanted! It's ...

Rummel Family: May 2014
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. So Alex wanted to make a rabbit trap. :) Who needs toys to play with when all you need is a box, some string, and a wooden block! It was a beautiful weekend and a nice trip. We cant wait to see them again! Hail on our back deck- it was about pea sized. Erin talks alot about skid steers- probably because Pop drives one. Alex and his rabbit trap. We spent Memorial Day at the beach! Can't wait to do that again! Tuesday, May 13, 2014. My spring flowers and a Magnolia tree/bush. We dr...

Rummel Family: February 2014
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Jan and Feb 2014. What can I say about Jan and Feb this year. Well, two words. Cold and Snow. We are thankful for our new house that has lots of room to run and play. However, even then the days get long and we are all looking for other things to do. As you see below, Adam takes to brushing a doll's hair! And after Alex got home from school we all bundled up and played in the snow. We also went for a walk, went swinging, down the slide, and even jumped on the trampoline! Had t...

Rummel Family: Long Trip - Battleship
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2015/05/long-trip-battleship.html
Sunday, May 3, 2015. Long Trip - Battleship. We took a spring break trip down to Alabama in April. Frankly, I was not looking forward to 12 hours in the car, but the kids did great! Alex is into anything and everything army right now. He loves guns, ships, planes, helicopters and tanks. So he was loving every minute of this stop. There was also a hanger with planes and helicopters in it at the park. And a US Submarine too. There were volunteers all over the ship dressed in their uniforms.

Rummel Family: Long Trip - Gulf Shores, AL
http://aerummel.blogspot.com/2015/05/long-trip-gulf-shores-al.html
Monday, May 4, 2015. Long Trip - Gulf Shores, AL. Even with the poor weather, we really did enjoy this beach (and cant wait to go again). It had good waves to play/ride in and the sand was great to play in. Adam keeps asking when we are going back to the Long Trip Beach. :). As long as the thunder doesn't get too close. The condo we stayed in. The waves made a little ledge in the sand that was fun to play on. Our view from one of the bedrooms in the condo. Our sand castles that got rained on overnight.
