Here in the Nations house, there is never a dull moment. We are kooky, crazy, and lots of fun, and we wanted to show the world! With four kids, you can bet we have a lot of "interesting" times. There's Bill and me (Michelle), Marissa - 16 y/o, Aubrey - 11, Mandy (who recently prefers to be called Amanda) - 9, and our newest addition Trey - the baby!
The kids are updating their personal pages regularly, and I will be adding pictures to the "Recent Photos" section of the Home page frequently. So stay posted to see what everyone is up to.

Hi Michelle. Yes we are from Texas. Right on the Red River. It is warm here as well. Had a cold front come through and it only got to 94 today!!! However it rained and was very humid! The park it was done early...Very early. The power was out all over town so I did not get to take them to the zoo like I wanted to they played and rode the train.. Home by noon and naps by one! WOO HOO! After that it is really only safe to go outside around 8pm or later :) Too hot! I am glad that I met another family from Texas that is sooo neat!
Have a great Day!
7/18/2009 12:55:40 AM - 001076975951
Michelle, Many thanks for stopping by my gallery site. I love that your children have their own page...what an excellent idea. I am glad that although you have a large family you were still able to have a Date Night. Love that. I hope you and Bill have many more date Nights in the future just to be together and relax. Have a great weekend.
7/16/2009 7:43:17 PM - 002055694880
Hi Michelle. Found you off LIsa's site...she's good at that. I've been seeing you around just have not had much time to get back over here and check out your site. I think that it is great that the girls do their own pages.....Love all the family times and family shots. Cute kids!! I'm going to go look around.

Glad to hear your birthday was a good day. I would have been whipped after a day at the beach, plus it's so hot. The thing about the beach is the wonder breeze that comes off the water :) I can hear the waves now. Gosh just love that sound.
7/15/2009 11:30:18 PM - 001076975951

7/14/2009 9:12:13 PM - 000074469281
Hi Michelle, with mine too, I just have everyone's names. I think I have Jean, Peter and Pauls too.
Your pictures are quite impressive for taking on a Iphone. Lisa has a cellphone page on her site where people upload their cell images. So many talented people. It is exciting. Love having you a part of the community. Happy almost birthday!! Woo-hoo!
7/14/2009 6:30:57 PM - 001024320926
If you go to my shutterpal Share Sites page on the left is a list of links for other share sites. Jean's is in there under Jean's Adventures and Pauls is under Pauls Inspirational Scenery. Hope that helps :)
7/14/2009 6:29:17 PM - 001024320926
Hi, thanks for stopping by and leaving your comments :) It's always good to see new people out and about in the share sites :) I love the pictures you have on here. Your kiddos are adorable :) Shutterfly is so great!
Where abouts are ya'll in Texas? There's a number of us Texans with Share sites. I'm about an hour east of Dallas.
7/14/2009 2:51:25 AM - 002032428374
Thanks for stopping by everyone. I am making my rounds to visit everyone's sites, and I have to say I am so impressed with the photography skills of all of you! Most of our family pictures (especially "Recent Photos") are just taken with a camera phone. I like the fact that you can upload them directly to the site with an iPhone application! It makes it really convenient. However, it also means poorer quality images.
Jean - Got it now!
Peter - Thanks for the web address. Will visit now!
Joey and ALL - Thanks for welcoming me into the Shutterfly community!
Hope everyone has a great week!
7/13/2009 9:25:43 PM - 002029331419
Hi Michelle, I'd say I got your site from Joey..and I did..but I accidently deleted it..so I got it again from Lisa, who got it from Joey! ha! :0)
Welcome! What a great site this is! And I think it is just terrific that you have a page for each of the Kiddos! I have one for my new grand-baby girl too! She's only 5 months old...but watching her growing up so fast from just scrolling through her page is just great! I'm going to look around!.. I'm Rhonda's sister, she's in Colorado and I'm in New Mexico! There were 5 girls in our family, so I love seeing that your first 3 are girls! I have one of each - they are so wonderful!
Come visit if you get a chance!
jeansadventures1958.shutterfly.com - -or just click on Joey, Lisa, Joanne, Rhonda ...etc... LOL!! :0) Have a great evening!
7/13/2009 6:45:16 PM - 002064713216
Joey informed me about your site, and I would like to welcome you to the Shutterfly community.
7/13/2009 1:26:02 PM - 001076975951
Hi Michelle, Joey T informed me about your site and welcome to the S/F Member's Community. So far I like what I see and love all the photos on your header. You have a beautiful family.

7/11/2009 8:39:18 PM - 000074469281
Oh, I just noticed a comment on my Shutterfly Share Page from your girls. Most of those are taken from other people that they add to my site. I like taking pictures of flowers, but I'm not nearly as good as some of the others. I see Lisa already visted, she is a doll and she has a great site too. Filled w/ oodles and oodles of pictures!!
7/11/2009 8:35:13 PM - 001024320926

NO WAY! You met the SYTYCD dancers. They are so talented. I just saw you put a photo on my Shutterfly Share page. Thank YOU. Your baby is adorable! I had to come and take a peek at your site. Is it ok if I add your site to my site under the Gallery & Guru's tab so others can visit u as well. I'll have to view your books and how COOL the kids are updating their own pages!!
