Lachance Family Website

Welcome to Lachances.com

We are the Lachance family of Marietta, GA.  Our family was formed in May, 1997 with the marriage of Frank Lachance to Donna Packard.  We have lived in Sydney, Australia and Boulder, CO, but mostly in the Atlanta suburb of Marietta.  Our family includes Frank’s sons Drew (20) and John (17), dogs Blizzard (7) and Gopher (8), and a pond full of goldfish.

This website is primarily the creative outlet of Donna.   It is a combination of pictures I have taken, family connections, and other interests.  You will see websites I maintain for my extended family, for Georgia youth soccer, and for some other communities of interest.  I posted some links pages in the early days of the internet; they still get a lot of traffic through search engines so I try to keep them updated and add new material when I find something good.

Here’s a guide to what you will find on here:

Home page:  The latest news and pictures are here.  Everything else that used to be on the homepage is now accessible through one of the links on the left side or the top.

Photo Archive:  The chronological index of the site.   Choose a year, semester or quarter, and you will find an index page of all pages or links from that time.  If it was on here, it should be in there.  The past couple years are quick-linked on the sidebar.

Family and Friends:  Pages and links for members of our family, friends, and even our pets. 

IQ/Personality Tests:  Links to Myers-Briggs type tests and info and other tests to help you know yourself.

Fun and Humor:  Jokes, brainteasers, topical humor, and more.  A mixed bag, very popular.

Atlanta Info:  Links of interest to people relocating to – or in – Atlanta.  These were my bookmarks, but I have expanded and updated them because people keep using them.

Adams Family:  Website for Donna’s extended family on her mother’s side.

SoccerGA.com:  Donna’s youth soccer site.  Home of the hugely popular soccer forum, links to youth soccer and pictures.

SunnyShots:  Homepage for Donna’s photography.  Links to client photos and some of my credits.

What I’m Shooting:  This links to my Smugmug site, which is where I post all my current photos.  You can download original images (usually for free), order prints, and even get a picture put on a mug or t-shirt. 

Bookmarks (Top):  These are primarily for me to use when on a different computer, but feel free to peek.

Contacts (Top):  Send us your feedback.

 

I launched this site in the Fall of 1997, and you will see many different experiments in photo-presentation over the years.  I think I’ve landed on one, but time will tell.  I have some cleanup and updating to do, but with over 500 different sub-sites, it will take some time.  E-mail me if there’s a dead link for something you wanted to see and I will fix it if I can.
