26 Kids All Together!
LN: Evangelista
DH: Michele Domenico (26)
hair: dark blonde, wavy
eyes: brown DW: Giuseppa Ermelinda (24)
hair: black, curly
eyes: gray Giuseppa and Michele are Italian, living in Italy. Michele is an editor, while Giuseppa stays at home, working part-time shifts at a bakery. They are a strong Catholic couple wanting to have a big family. ***Michele and Giuseppa have adopted a half-Italian girl from the U.S. Her name is Gianna Magdalene. She has her father's gorgeous dark brown curls and her mother's entrancing deep blue eyes. Gianna is welcomed into the Evangelista family as one of their own. Michele & Giuseppa (27 & 25)
Gianna (2) [U.S.]***Michele fulfills his lifelong dream of visiting the oratory in Turin set up by St. John Bosco. He and Giuseppa--along with three-year-old Gianna--take a tour of it. Michele is awed. He can't believe that his patron saint--St. Dominic Savio--actually walked in that very place! Let alone his great-great-however-many-greats uncle! He has always found himself having a great devotion to St. John Bosco, St. John Bosco being his great-great-however-many-greats uncle. Giuseppa finds it interesting to walk where a great saint once walked. Michele & Giuseppa (28 & 26)
Gianna (3) [U.S.]***Michele and Giuseppa visit Ireland with Gianna. They find the countryside very refreshing. Gianna seems to be in heaven, just roaming the hills at her leisure! Michele & Giuseppa (29 & 27)
Gianna (4) [U.S.]***Michele buys Gianna a pet goat, whom she names Bosco. He feels that she deserves to be given some responsibility, even at the age of five. Gianna has always been a sweet little child, willing to do whatever she is asked. Gianna is very fond of Bosco. Michele & Giuseppa (30 & 28)
Gianna (5) [U.S.]***
Giuseppa, after five years, has finally conceived. And not just one! Not just two! But three! Giuseppa has given birth to two girls and a boy. One of the girls has black hair and green eyes. The other girl has dark blonde hair and blue eyes. The little boy looks almost exactly like his daddy: dark blonde curls and hazel eyes. Margherita Raimonda (black hair, green eyes), Francesca Dafne (dark blonde hair, blue eyes), and Bruno Giovanni are the newest Evangelistas. Margherita already seems to be a sweet little girl. Francesca is sprightly. And Bruno seems to be quite the little rascal--though he can certainly be a saint on his days. Michele & Giuseppa (31 & 29)
Gianna (6) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (nb) ***While visiting Ireland a few years back, Michele and Giuseppa met a pair of Italian girls who had been orphaned while their parents were acting as missionaries in Ireland. The twin girls are now ten years old. Agostina Ginevra and Giuditta Imelda are almost identical with their curly dark blonde hair. The only difference is that Agostina's eyes are slightly gray amidst blue while Giuditta's are fully blue. Gianna is happy to have older sisters, as she has always been alone. She feels she needs someone to turn to, to tell her secrets... besides Bosco the goat, of course. Michele & Giuseppa (32 & 30)
Agostina, Giuditta (10) [Ireland]
Gianna (7) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (1)***Michele has fulfilled another lifelong dream of his. He has written and published a biography of St. John Bosco. All of his friends say it's fantastic. Everyone who finds out he wrote that St. John Bosco biography compliments his fabulous writing. It's a hit! Catholics everywhere are reading this full-length, novel-like biography of St. John Bosco. Michele & Giuseppa (33 & 31)
Agostina, Giuditta (11) [Ireland]
Gianna (8) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (2)***Michele has decided that it's time to take his family on vacation. He and Giuseppa decide to take them to visit their grandparents for two weeks. Agostina, Giuditta, Gianna, Margherita, Francesca, and Burno all have a blast. The Evangelista grandparents absolutely adore their grandchildren, biological or not. Michele & Giuseppa (34 & 32)
Agostina, Giuditta (12) [Ireland]
Gianna (9) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (3)***Margherita, Francesca, and Bruno are no longer the youngest. Twins Immacolata Ludovica (black curls, brown eyes) and Enrico Gabriele (blonde curls, gray eyes) are the dearest little children. They are both rather mischievous even now. Margherita has decided that she is going to mother little Enrico. Francesca has become best friends with Bruno and Enrico. Bruno loves little Immacolata, whose health is not as magnificent as the Evangelistas would like. She is still quite the little mischievous monkey. Michele & Giuseppa (35 & 33)
Agostina, Giuditta (13) [Ireland]
Gianna (10) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (4)
Immacolata, Enrico (nb) ***Michele and Giuseppa have decided that they want to move. They've moved from Genoa, Italy, to Turin, Italy. Michele just couldn't help himself when they decided to move. Turin just seemed to draw him nearer every year, as he was beginning to visit there more than once every month. Giuseppa feels they made the right decision, as she watches the triplets and the twins romp and play and grow. Michele & Giuseppa (36 & 34)
Agostina, Giuditta (14) [Ireland]
Gianna (11) [U.S.]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (5)
Immacolata, Enrico (1)***Agostina and Giuditta have just announced that they have an eight-year-old sister still living in Ireland. Michele and Giuseppa immediately adopted her. Carmina Domitilla is glad to be reunited with her family. Michele & Giuseppa (37 & 35)
Agostina, Giuditta (15) [Ireland]
Gianna (12) [U.S.]
Carmina (8) [Ireland]
Margherita, Francesca, Bruno (6)
Immacolata, Enrico (2)***Bruno gets an older brother, because his parents have adopted a thirteen-year-old half-Italian Canadian. Michele and Giuseppa like adopting kids who have Italian blood, because it makes them feel closer to them. Antonio Maxwell and his three-year-old triplet sisters--Gabriella Vivian, Eliana Cassidy, and Alina Jasmine--fit into the Evangelistas as if they were made to be part of their family. They all look like their mother, who was Italian. They have dark curls and dark eyes. Michele & Giuseppa (38 & 36)

Their parents were missionaries in Africa, and they were along for the ride when their parents suddenly contracted a strange disease and died. Alessandro and Vincenzo were heart-broken, until Michele and Giuseppa adopted them. They are glad to have a family again.Lorenzo and Giuditta, although they are strong Catholics, accidentally went too far. Giuditta got pregnant, and now is the mother of twins Lucia Giuliana and Giancarlo Mattea. They are both dark babies. Michele & Giuseppa (39 & 37)
