A new addition to the Boscos

Waverly feeding her new little sis.
Dustine and Aulbrey



Aulbrey Ann Bosco
Two of the big brothers and one big cousin. :)

Aulbrey Ann Bosco was born on July 8th, 2009. All I remember is that she weighed 10 1/2 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Anyways, she is very cute and her brothers and sisters LOVE her VERY much. This makes SIX for Steve and Tammy. Here are some pictures of the little bundle of joy.

We love our Cousins!

Tyler and Ethan waiting for their chance to light fireworks with the big guys. Soon enough boys, soon enough.

"The Big One. Keep out of reach of children." (I love the line from Toy Story)
Anyways, after the train ride and cookout we enjoyed fireworks on our Independence Day.

On the 4th of July Grammy and Grandpa Brown took all of the cousins (that were in town) on a train ride in French Lick, IN. It was an enjoyable ride on a rainy July 4th. Two highlights of the trip were having our train "held up" by robbers on horseback. Emily and Isabelle were pretty scared, it was alot of fun. The other highlight was seeing were Larry Bird grew up. In a old shotgun style house, nothing fancy. Of course he as moved on to something much bigger.

Tyler, Isabelle, and a train robber posing for a picture, how nice of him. :)

Adrien and Tyler chillin' on the train.

Vanessa and Emily on the train.

Here are the cousins on the Bosco side. We are only missing baby Aulbrey who wasn't born yet and Jessica & Will's little bun in the oven, add those two and I think it is a total of 18! This picture was taken on Memorial Day. Since, Jess and Will were in town we thought it would be fun to get together and enjoy a baseball game and picnic. FUN! FUN!

Boys will be boys

Wondering why Isabelle is on the boy post? Her head wound. Ethan was playing with my excerising band and Isabelle was being an older sister and she tried to get if from him. They both were pulling it and Ethan thought it was a fun game. When he let go the handle snapped back and hit Isabelle in the head. Two stitches underneath the skin and 5 stitches on the top. Isabelle was so brave! She didn't make a peep at the hospital. She didn't even shead one tear. She just laid there like a perfect patient. Her reward was a mermaid Barbie.

Ethan ate chocolate pudding without a spoon.

My dirty boys!

Ethan's face in this picture just screams, TROUBLE!

The aftermath of muddin on the Yerf Dog go cart.

This is actually really clean for just going muddin'.


Gatti Land

Having fun on the Snoopy ride. He rode that ride about 10 times.
Ethan needs to make sure Snoopy doesn't move. He didn't want Snoopy to get him.

A ride for Ethan.

Ethan

Ethan didn't care if wasn't "playing" the games. He loved sitting in them and pretending he was doing something.

Uncle Phil being goofy!

Here we have Emily and Rebekah on the far chair. Dustine and Isabelle on the front chair. They were riding some virtual roller coaster ride.


We went to Gatti Land with all of our Bosco cousins. I have a few pictures, mainly of Ethan because the other kids ran off with their cousins to play games.

Pictures from the Louisville Zoo

Tyler and Emily feeding the Lorikeets at the Louisville Zoo. After the picture was taken the two birds on Emily started to fight. It really scared her, but she was brave and just stood there like a statue.

Happy Father's Day!

I just wanted to tell Sean how grateful I am to him. I love him. He is a wonderful and sexy husband! :) I love that he makes me laugh EVERYDAY! I couldn't imagine not having humor in our relationship. I love when he gets home from work and to see all the kids run to greet dad! I love to see Sean playing with the kids it brings me great joy knowing that our kids have both parents in their home. Thanks babe for all the hours at work you put in. Thanks for all the support you give me. Thanks for loving the kids the way you do! You are #1! :)

I also wanted to mention a few of the wonderful examples of Father's that have touched my life.

-My dad, I love him very much. Sometimes I wished that I had all the time away from him when I was a kid back, but I am grateful for the time I have now. I love that I can call my dad and totally scream, vent or let out my feelings and he will just listen. I love my dad's sense of humor. I love being around my dad! I love seeing my dad with his grandchildren. I love seeing his eyes light up when he is around his family! Love ya, Dad!

- My Father in Law, I a grateful that I have one that I get along with so well. I love that we can tease each other. I love seeing him play with his grandchildren. They love to wrestle grandpa and they have no mercy on him and he just takes it. Thanks Dad!

-My brothers, I have the best brothers! They were and are such a great examples of father figures to me and I love them. They are so strong physically and spiritually! They are extremely hard workers. They never give up on anything they do. I know I can come to them with questions and concerns and I will get great advice. Thanks guys, I love you all!

-My friends' fathers, coming from a broken home you kind of look around for great men to look up to. I had great friends growing up and you can't get great kids without having great parents. I don't know if they will ever know the wonderful examples they were to me. They loved their families and you could feel it from the moment you walked in their homes. I love their sense of humor. I loved their devotion to the gospel of Jesus Christ. I am such a people watcher so with all of my friends' dads I could tell you what I loved about them. Little did they know how much they influenced me.

So, here is is all the fathers' on Father's Day, hope it is wonderful!

Emily



video

I just wanted to write about Emily. She is such a wonderful daughter! I can always count on Emily to help me with Ethan and to help me around the house. She is such a great sister to Tyler because he always begs her to play a Star Wars game even if she doesn't want to play she will. She is such a great big sister to Isabelle, even when Isabelle tries to boss Emily around Emily will just ignore it and go on with what she was doing. Emily is so kind to Ethan, too! If Ethan wants something that Emily has she will give it to him because she says, "I don't want to here him cry." Emily is such a great example of a being a peacemaker!


At school Emily's teacher always tells me how wonderful Emily is in class. She always tells me she would keep her if I ever wanted to get rid of her. ;) Like that would happen! ;) She tells me how helpful Emily is with the other children. She says that Emily is not like some other kids that boss other kids around when helping, but very humble when she is helping. She is always eager to learn and is a very fast learner! I am always so pleased to hear reports on Emily everywhere I go. I always here, "You have done such an excellent job!" Well, I wish Sean and I could take credit, but we can't we are just blessed with a wonderful little girl who always wants to do good!


Well, we all have our trials and Emily has had an early one to deal with in her life, it is her allergy induced Asthma. She is a trooper. She never complains when she has to take her breathing treatments or drink disgusting medicine. My heart hearts for her when she sometimes can't go out with the other kids or tells me it is hard to breathe at times. She is always looking towards a positive future and knows the Lord hasn't forgotten her. She prays that she will overcome this and has tremendous faith!


Thanks for being such a great daughter, sister, friend, and an excellent example of how Jesus wants us to be! I love you, baby girl!
