Day 89 - Goodbyes & Heavenly Desserts!

Where did this last week go?!  We had such a lovely time this week with my sister and brother in law.  We did lots of touristy things, but we also made time to hang out and enjoy each others company.  We also ate at some really delicious restaurants!

Tomorrow they will get on a plane and head back home, and we will miss them lots and lots until we see them again back home.
