Dear Spring,
It's so precious how you tease me with the idea of frolicking
and running through the soft green grass in my bare feet.
That really sounds wonderful, except it won't be happening,
because pollen has infested my brain.
I'm currently suffering from incessant sniffling, red eyes,
and a sore throat that seriously feels like I swallowed some sandpaper.
I really love you Spring,
and I know that flower reproduction
is an essential part of this glorious season,
but,
why, oh why, does this wicked pollen have to be so cruel?
For now, I'll just stay inside with my beloved Allegra and dream of my favorite parts of Spring...
bike rides and warm weather and fun in the sun.
Hope I get to enjoy you soon.
Love,
Ashley

Oh no. I can´t imagine how that feels. Spring is my favourite!
Oh, beautiful photos! And I agree, my allergies have been going crazy recently! Spring is my favorite though, so I try an tough it out :)
how lovely. My husband has to take Allegra-D because of the pollen too. so sad what people suffer with such allergies. :(
Agreed. Pollen is oh so cruel! I love spring, but loathe the allergens!
feel better soon, sweetheart. this too shall pass. and in the meantime, you've taken lovely family shots! xo
Beautiful shots! You always find the prettiest places to visit as a family and take photos!! I am totally with you on the evil pollen, and I am hoping that it goes away very quickly! Hope you can get out and enjoy Spring again very soon!!
Oh girl, I hope you feel better soon!
As I read this my eyes began to burn do to the evil pollen jumping strait off the screen. This pollen is mean but it just can't stop the Beadles.
LOVE YOU and GREAT pictures!!!
I'm sorry to hear that friend.. Sometimes I get a sort of hay fever type thing.. But it stops there... Sorry you're suffering :-/

Love your pictures. But yes, those pollen can be bad...I hear you. :) I'm a zyrtec person, whatever works for us, right?!
Great photos as usual. So sorry about the dang pollen, frustrating. You still look beautiful as ever though. Take care,

love it. beautiful pics!
Hahaa... I heart your "Love" letter to spring! Spring is not my bbf... constant sniffles & watery eyes. OMGoodness... ADORABLE pics of you guys though! Seriously darn cutest little family you got there mama!!
You always take the most beautiful photos. Sorry about all the pollen, my mom has horrible allergies and is sneezing constantly.
I have a solution, send spring to me!! We still had snow on the ground this week! Very sad:( Love love love these photos, gorgeous!
Spring allergies can be the pits. Hope you get over it soon.
My Stepdaughter used to have a lot of problems with allergies until she found an ear nose and throat doctor who does nasal washes. He did it over a year ago and she hasn't had a problem since. He told her fungus gets into our noses and causes a lot of our problems. I think he put some kind of medication in the nasal wash.
Gorgeous pictures!! I'm SO sorry you have to suffer with allergies.... that is the worst! Eric has developed allergies since we've been married and it's awful. But he refuses to accept the fact that he has allergies now, so he won't take claritin or whatever it is you take to help.... stubborn boy.
oh my goodness, he is so tender...i love those pictures!

And those photos...love seeing you & Will with your little Hudson. He is so loved and adored. And the last photo is breathtaking! Feel better friend! xo
Whew, the allergies in this state sure have been kicking my butt, too. Gorgeous pictures! LOVE Hudson's hair. So sweet!
Oh how awful to not be able to enjoy the spring.. i think its what I crave most after our winters..
I hope it slows down soon for ya mama
It is always so much fun to look at your beautiful photos!!
HE is getting so big! I hate all the allergies too!
I'm so sorry that the pollen has gotten to you! I was so awful the week before we went on our trip and thankfully it cleared up at the end of the week and I was good to go for the trip. But I was pretty miserable! Pollen stinks!
Just stumbled across your blog. Love it! I enjoyed reading your posts and your pictures are wonderful!
