The largest star that we know of a is a red hypergiant, named VY Canis Majoris. The size of this star extends to what would be the orbit of Saturn, this is about 1,433,449,370 kilometers. The possiblity of a star being larger then our entire solar system doesn't seem probable, but we have no way of observing every star in the universe to tell. There must be a star somwhere that is large enough to envelope our solar system, but as of now we don't know of any.

Even over very long periods of time, our position relative to other stars in the galaxy remains about the same. But we are moving around, just the same.
