The Hannah Family

This blog is all about us

Who are we?  A family of 6 people and 5 pets:  Mark is 47, I'm 44, Matt is 18, Katie is 16, Claire is 8, and Dave is 5.

Our geriatric dog is Mandy, hamster is Vinny, and the 3 sweet cats are Max, Whiskers, and Oreo.

 

Tooth fairy was here again last night

All Claire needs for Valentine's Day is her top TWO FRONT TEETH!

Claire had her annual eye exam yesterday (love Saturday office hours)

She wears her glasses every day, but Claire still needs stronger corrective lenses this year.  The eye doc said her vision is worse than mine which is a bummer (he compared our prescriptions out of curiosity), although she doesn't need glasses to read and my astigmatism is more significant.  Luckily Claire doesn't mind wearing glasses and is excited about the new frames she chose.  We'll pick them up at the end of the week and I'll get a picture.  In the meantime, here's a link.  Just change the color to pink (the temples are green) and there you have it.

Who knew I liked to talk about my kids so much?

Everybody??

That sounds about right.

Classic Matt

"Happy Birthday, Mom!  {Noticing the bags in my hands} Did you get me anything?"

Happy 44th Birthday to Me

Mark bought me a giant 3D flat-screen Smart TV for the bedroom as a combination Christmas/birthday gift (for the next few years, I imagine).  The kids just can't wait to eat birthday cake... okay me too!

Nice when they know what we know

The wrestlers had a special night to honor the six senior students on the team.  Matt was bumped up to the next weight class and still wiped the floor with his opponent from Fuquay Varina High.  He said, "Dad couldn't have been more supportive of my wrestling these last four years" which was good to hear (and very true!).
