Spring is almost here!

Spring is almost here!Boy,am I happy that it alomst is!I went out for a walk today & took some more pictures on my Fuji camera to load onto my computer.I can't wait to see the flowers in bloom when the weather's a little warmer.Maybe a barbeque will be happening.Who knows?I just have to be a little bit patient for it to happen.All good things come to those who wait.I can do that.Can you?If you can,just take a walk outside & smell the flowers that have bloomed all around you.I saw in my neighborhood that there's trees trying to bud,no to flowers just as of yet,but they'll be blooming soon.I can't wait to see them in bloom!But I have to wait because spring is just 8 days away.The sooner it comes,the better we'll all be.

How I got to live in Eagle Mountain with my sister & brother-in-law

Hi!This is my very first blog that I'm writing,so just bear with me.My name is Merry Elliott & I live with my sister & brother-in-law in Eagle Mountain.I used to live in Tooele,Utah until October 3rd,2010 when my Mom had passed on me.I'm the 2nd of 6 children.I'm 48 years old.Christmas is my favorite time of year because we celebrate the season of giving & my birthday.We've got 5 cats living with us named Nikita,Nala,Maxwell,Brandy & Mirasol(Mira for short).I've had my share of ups & downs in my life,but I just turn them around for the good in my life.I have a sister named Megan,who's my 1st youngest sister.I've also got an older sister named Marjorie(Margie for short).I've got a younger brother named Michael(Mike for short),a youngest sister named Martha(Marty for short)who's attending nursing school in Ohio & a youngest brother named Matthew(Matt for short).I've lived out of state in Las Vegas for 5 1/2 years.I moved back from Las Vegas in 2007(That was the scariest ride in my life,besides getting hit by a car slightly).My favorite color's red.Maxwell,when I don't feel well come into my room & becomes my good medicine kitty & buddy when I'm sick.Last November 12th,my neighbor & her 2 youngest boys were killed in a single car rollover while her oldest boy was in the hospital with 3rd degree burns to his right foot,having to have a skin graft done to his foot or leg.His name's Anthony Powell.His Father's name is Thomas Powell.The accident made the papers as well as the local news & the internet.His Mom was named Inndia Powell & his 2 brothers are or were named Alexander Lynn(Alex for short)& Ashton Ray Powell.Those 3 boys were fun to be around to a point.But after all,Thomas Powell & his son,Anthony are one of the best neighbors to live next door to.I've lived in Eagle Mountain for about a year & a half to 2 years.The people really like me here & I'm liking it here as well.I'll keep you updated as often as I can or as I get more news for you to read.
