Ain't No Love . . . like ours

The event is my sister Kysa's birthday, held in my 100-year-old home despite major kitchen and dining room renovations (which we completed the following month). That's the great thing about a large, loving family; they'll gather to celebrate a birthday or special occasion and somehow overlook the make-shift kitchen counters and yet-to-be refinished hardwood floors poking out beneath a host of mismatched area rugs.
 
They know what's important.
  
Despite my first ever attempt at video recording (on a Digimax camera I received last Christmas from my son Bill and his wife Jen), I managed to put together a short video encompassing the event.
 
I dedicate this video to my sister Kysa (after all, it was her birthday), and also to my late beloved stepfather, Earl, who lives on within all our hearts.
