Evangeline Repentance Yuck

October 8th, 2015, Jordan gave birth to her third little girl,  Evangeline!   The birth went well with only a 2 1/2 hour labor.   She did end up having to deliver in the hospital due to the fact that she was having issues with meconium.  But baby was born quickly and natural,  and both momma and baby are
 healthy!  Caleb and Jordan couldn't be more thrilled and Victoria and Berea love their new little sister. 


Evangeline weighed 8lbs. 1 oz. and she was born at 5:27am.


Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

Our Pictures at Hitchcock...

After leaving the reception, Matthew and I went to Hitchcock Woods with the photographer for some couple pictures.


They turned out lovely!



Mr. & Mrs. Dickerson




This shot was a lot of fun....and a good balancing trick!





Tender moments...




Our favorite!



Such sweetness....awe!






He's really strong!

We were supposed to jump, but my train made it a little difficult. Matthew got really high though!





A beautiful day filled with lots of beautiful memories!

The Reception...


Savannah bought us this cute little chalkboard to write each other little notes!

Our card table...
(Mom, Savannah and Jordan put together all of the bouquets that were on the tables using the leftover flowers from my bouquet and flowers that were around the farm.  They did an excellent job!)




Dessert table

Food table
(All of our guests did a wonderfully, delicious job of helping supply the food for the picnic!  There was a ton of food.  Thanks everybody!)



Matthew's dulcimer, set up and ready to play.


Matthew's little brother.  I think he was imagining the kiss.  -big, cheesy grin-

Coming down to greet the guests as Mr. & Mrs.!

Very, very happy couple!


Our first kiss for the photographer.


Dad announcing us...

...here we come...

...husband and wife!

Our audience, ready and waiting to see the first public kiss.


Matthew had wanted to dip me to kiss me for the first time, so we practiced once upstairs and it went really smooth.  But when we got out in front of everybody, it was less than picturesque!  But boy, was it fun!  It had us laughing till we were red in the face!



And we had our guests laughing too!


The second dip kiss looked a little better!



Dad, praying for our meal...
