Too Much Yellow!

It is allergy season here in Georgia. We knew this when Jeff started suffering with allergies a couple weeks ago. I thought maybe it was just from him being out in the field all week playing in the weeds. Surely his allergies will die down when he's been home for a couple days, but they didn't. Now I know why. Yesterday afternoon when I got in the van I saw yellow covering our van, and then noticed it was all over the roads, sidewalks and even in our house. Yep, it is pollen all over everything! No wonder Jeff is having such a hard time. Last night he washed our van and mountaineer. This morning we had a new covering of the yellow dust. I've never seen anything like it. Jeff had said he is allergic to Georgia. He was joking before, but now he's serious! The weather man said there will be no relief for the allergy sufferers until we get some rain, and there is no rain in site for a while. I do love the blue skies but for Jeff's sake I would love some rain right now!
Other than that, today is a good day. Jeff got the oil changed in our van, hadn't done that since we bought it in November. He is at the church right now doing a car wash with the teens. They are raising money for church camp. (Today was a good day for the car wash with the pollen all over everyone's cars!) Tonight we have a teen activity. Jeff is teaching them a new game, I forget the name. Tomorrow of course is Easter. Looking forward to a good Sunday in God's house. I get to teach the teen girls so I'm excited and nervous about that. I've only taught them twice before. We will have Easter dinner alone. We invited some people over but they all have plans to eat dinner with their parents, grandparents, cousins...what's up with that? Eating with family? Who does that? Oh yeah, people that live near family do that! ha ha. We've lived far away from our family for so long that we've forgotten that people actually do things with family on holidays. Overseas you celebrate the holidays with your friends from church...they are your family. But boy would I love to celebrate with our parents and siblings.
Anyways...
This coming week is Josiah's spring break!!!!! WoooooHOOOOOOOO! Can you see I'm excited? I love sleeping in and I love spending time with all 3 of my children. Jeff also took off work for the whole week...YaY!!!! So Monday we are driving up to Atlanta for a couple days. Our plans are to go to Six Flags, the aquarium and the children's museum. I'm so excited about this coming week. I sure hope we have a good safe time.
I will post some pictures next week of our fun time in Atlanta.
Hope you all have a blessed Easter weekend. Take some time out to remember why we have Easter. Why did Jesus die? Why did he rise from the dead?
