The day after we arrived home from Vegas was Christmas Eve and the Iyer side of our family flew into town! Badamma, Aunt Raji, Jessa (5) and Mina (2) came to visit for a week. Bummer Uncle Josh had to work. We had a fun week in Seattle with our Margolin cousins-they are our little sunshines!

Christmas Day
Ben decided he wanted to learn to sew and made Bruno a pillow.

On the 26th we did an Iyer grandchild photo shoot - I will post them when they come in.
Ben did a lot of bike riding over the break.

Not pictured-the terrible bug that was jumping from person to person all week. Ben had been to the ER for dehydration the night before so the boys and I stayed home on 12/28 while the girls went to the aquarium.

I spent 5 hours building the pop-a-shot and we were all happy when I was done!

Happy New Year!
Badamma, Raji and the girls left this morning and I was the last one to catch the bug so we had to cancel our plans to have another family over tonight. Instead Nate went to a dance with a friend, Riley went to a friend's house and Ben chilled at home with his cool parents. :)
The last sunset of 2018 was spectacular. A reminder that while this year had many unexpected hardships, it also brought with it a lot of beautiful things.
Happy New Year from Mesh, Ben and sick Meg.
We wish you health, happiness and blessings in the new year!
