New Granddaughter Visits Whitesides

Flicka Maxine Adams, first born child of Ursula and Bob Adams of Chicago, traveled with her parents to the Sioux City, IA area this Christmas. Flicka (and her parents) stayed with her grandparents, Bill and Marsha Adams, in Dakota Dunes, SD across the Missouri River from Sioux City, the home of  great-grandparents Robert and Maxine Whiteside

The name Flicka means "little girl" in Swedish, an acklowledgment of her mother's roots, and the baby's middle name is a gracious nod to her great-grandmother.



From the picture on the Christmas greetings received this year, it is difficult to tell who is the proudest adult in Flicka's family!
