Dave, Kylie and I went up to Burley to celebrate my grandma's 85th birthday in April. Kylie and her Great Grandmother met for the first time. It was so much fun to see the interaction between them. We spent the weekend watching the Jazz game, manicuring, eating too much, and trying to fix a few odds and ends around her house. On her birthday we took her to Upper Crust Bakery for lunch which is in connection with Gossner Cheese. We slipped a hint to our waitress and she came out with Pecan Pie and a cheese hat for Grandma to wear as we sang Happy Birthday. Grandma attempted to feed Kylie her first taste of ice cream. After a few resisted attempts I ended up swatting her spoon full of ice cream that barely missed the person at the next table. Afterwords we visited grandpa's grave and then headed back home having made some great memories with grandma.
