Okay, I know I haven't been the best at keeping caught up with my blog, but I love being able to check up with everyone! I think about how great it is- if Mandy hadn't started all this I wouldn't have been able to:
1. See pictures of my sweet grandbabies
2. Hear about the funny, sad, frustrating, sweet, inspiring stories from everyone
3. Keep in touch with friends I love who've moved far, far away
4. See what mischief my children and others children are up too
5. Watch pregnant bellies grow
6. Watch children grow in pictures when I wouldn't have the chance to see them
7. Share pictures and stories from my family
8. Reconnect with lost family members I've always loved
9. Feel lots of love from others and know people care
10. Read about the adventures of Grandma Hand
So, thanks to those of you I love for sharing your lives- you're an inspiration to me!! I'm off to Arizona tonight to help Chelsea pack her house for the move to Utah- didn't we just move her in??!! Love to you all- Susie

CHAPTER FOUR: The Day Before!
Okay, I have been a total and complete slacker about blogging- to my defense in the four weeks since the wedding I've had a bbq for 23, 3 days at girls camp, helped Whit and Ryan get settled, a trip to San Francisco, and the 4th of July! Oh, and I read the 6th Harry Potter book! So back to the wedding. Chelsea and Lindsey felt bad that they didn't have a chance to do a shower for Whit so they arranged a little party for the day before. Chels made dozens of trips to Old Navy and got shirts for everyone then had them printed with a cute saying. We all (17) went to our favorite nail place and had "ManiPedi's" (as Aunt Debbie calls them) then lunch afterwards at the house. It was a really fun day to spend with sisters, aunts, bridesmaids, cousins, and friends. Emma totally loved having her nails done- she is such a girl! Whit's bridesmaids Sydney and Kat had sweatsuits made up for them too- I think it was a great way to spend the day before. So thanks Chelsea and Liz for the great time!! So finally next- THE WEDDING!!
