Edith,
California law says that if your tenant has been there for less than 1 year, you must give at least 30 days notice. If she's been there for more than 1 year, you must give 60 days notice. Notice must be in writing, and you do not need to give her a reason to terminate. You are perfectly within your rights to terminate a month-to-month tenancy, even when your tenant has been an angel.
On the http://www.dca.ca.gov website there is some good information about landlord/tenant law. Go there and search "landlord book".
Can she fight you in court? Sure, as anyone can sue anyone for anything these days. Will she win? No, not if you follow the landlord rules.
Know that if you give her a 60-day notice, she could decide she wants to go sooner, and give you a 30-day.
Do you need to take possession back by a certain date? Is that date soon or months from now? Are you relying on the rental income?

I talked to her on the phone to give her a heads up since I know it's super hard to find a place told her over the phone that march 1 would be great but if she finds something before it will work also. I told her I would like to give her a formal letter and she said no need to we been long term family friends. I am just scared that if we don't do it by the book it will later but me in the butt

Just send it and if she questions you about it. Tell her that your tax advisor needed documentation for tax purposes. Follow the right procedure. Or it might take you longer to get possession of the property
