My mother-in-law Karyl and sister-in-law Jess:

My sister-in-law—the newly-minted Dr. Capp—as well as my nieces, Sylvia and Hazel, and Ava.

Hazel’s twin, Eliza:

Aunt Katie joined via teleconference from Boston:

Mom had a chat with her, too:

Here’s my stepdad Dave. (Happy birthday to you, Dave!)
