July 2015





Whitney got baptized in July, and we had  chocolate fountain at the party after. You were so excited for that!
We also took a trip to the Noyes farm, and fed calves, saw pigs, and a calf be born! Quite the educational trip.
July 19, 2015 was the day Grandma Wilkinson passed away. She had gotten sick on the 6th with pneumonia. Her body responded to the medication well but she had some other things come along that made her unable to get well. She came home from the Hospital on a Saturday (the day of our family reunion at her house) and passed away the next day. 
She was an absolutely amazing Grandma to me and Great Grandma to you! We were at her house so much your entire life and I am so grateful for that! She went on many many shopping trips with us! I know she loved you and her eyes would light up when you came over. She gave great hugs, always had cookies, or popscicles, and always made sure you were loved! You are a very loving girl and always gave her hugs and sat on her lap while watching tv. 
   We will miss her so much but I am glad she is with Grandpa. The funeral was very nice. All the great-grand kids sang "I know that my Savior loves me". Grandma loved music!

June 2015


 BIRTHDAY GIRL! We celebrated with the Birt family a few days before your actual birthday since we were going to be arriving in California on your actual Birthday!
Grandma always uses this M&M bag for birthday presents, you took out the gift and the extra piece of paper in the bottom!


SAN RAFAEL CALIFORNIA
You and Alexa are about a year apart. She is younger but size wise you'd never know! You 2 were best buddys!
Salt Flats.



Since we arrived at Kim and Jerry's on your birthday Aunt Kim made you a cake, got balloons and a pinata and a present for you! She spoiled you and you loved it!




Talking to Grandma Birt so she could tell you Happy Birthday!










 We sure took advantage of your Birthday month and got a lot of parties in! We first celebrated at Grandpa and Grandma Birt's house before we left for San Rafael. We spent a fun week on vacation! We went into the city and saw the wharf, Ghiredeli Square, China town, rode a trolley car and played on a beach on the wharf. You kids like to go to a small bird refuge in San R. We played at the park. Went to the Oakland zoo one day- probably the hottest day while we were there. They had a petting zoo with goats and sheep. Hahaha! But City kids don't get many changes to pet them like we do. We spent a day at the Muir beach and even though it was a little cold that didn't stop you from getting wet and having fun!
I have a hard time believing that you are Six years old! You are probably one of the smallest girls in your grade and that is one reason I cant believe you'll be in 1st grade this year! You are super silly and keep us entertained. We love you so much!
