The love of a family, is life's greatest blessing!

On Saturday we had "family day" to say my last goodbyes to the family.  It was a beautiful day and bittersweet.

We ordered some of my favorite Chicago food and had a huge feast!  Lou Malnati's pizza, Chicago hot dogs, Italian Beef and Oberweiss Ice Cream!

Then took a break from playing in the backyard to pose for some pictures with some of my favorites!

The little ones...

One of the brothers...

And last, but not least... the sisters.



My years in Chicago have been amazing.  I got to see my siblings and their families every weekend and got to watch the kids grow up... I wouldn't change it for the world, and I can't wait to share with them my Alaska.

Love you all!
