Are You Ready for some Football??
2011 State Farm Bears
So one thing that I absolutely love is going to any of Landon's games (no matter what sport) and stand on the sidelines as his biggest fan! This is Landon's first year playing flag football with the Winterville Parks and Rec. Landon was so fortunate to be on the State Farm Bears team with two awesome coaches. He has the cutest little team and several of his teammates were either on one of his baseball teams in the past or in his kindergarten class last year. So to recap some of Landon's highlights from this years games.
*He inherited the nickname "Midget". Partly because he is the shortest and smallest player on the team and partly because there were 2 other Landon's on his team.
*He is an awesome offensive player! He was the first to those flags on many occasions
*Landon scored two touchdowns in one game (thats the limit in flag football)
*Landon loves the game of football and learned a lot about the rules and how play the game.
Landon was #2 this year for the Bears.
Focused and running his little heart out to get a touchdown!

HIKE!!!
Luke is his Brother's biggest fan as well. He sat on the 20 yard line and just watched his Brother run up and down the field during one of his games. I can't wait until Luke gets in on some of this action!! It want be long and I will be cheering him on from the sidelines too!

Bathtub Fun!
A few months ago Casey & Adam asked me to keep Addison while they went to their Dave Ramsey financial class at Covenant. Of Course I was delighted and Luke on the other hand was EXCITED!! They played their little hearts out and as always Addison just laughed and laughed at Luke. After dinner we went for some splash fun in the bathtub! They laughed and talked to each other as if they knew exactly what they were saying to each other! Here is just a touch of their fun!
Luke smiling after he just made a big splash by standing up and quickly falling back into the water
Addison gets a kick out of everything Lukie Luke does
I think they are coming up with a plan of attack! Looks like Luke is filling Addison in on whatever it may be!
They are just too cute!!
After we got diapers and pajamas on I took Luke and Addison for a beanbag ride. They really enjoyed wearing my back and legs out lol!
Luke and Addison had so much fun together. When it was time to leave little Addison ran for her life because she didn't want to go. I think her Daddy finally caught up with her and she just cried and cried. Although I hate to see little Addison cry, I know she was crying because she didn't want to leave her MIMI! :)

Taking pictures is therapy or my "get away" from all the worries and issues that the world seems to throw at you and lately I've had my share of them!! One day last week I was in need of some therapy so I took a small trip around my yard looking for anything that would catch my attention. To my surprise I found quite a few interesting things that I wasn't looking for! First I stumble upon a small green snake in my drive way. I thought it was sun bathing because it laid there motionless even as I slowly crept up on it. As I focused closer through my lens I noticed that it was wounded and most likely dead. I thought with that wound and him being motionless it was OK to take both eyes of him long enough to get a photo! As I looked through my lens to get the shot suddenly that nasty spider below appeared as well!! Here I am trying to take peaceful pictures of nature and I stumble across two things that I dislike the most, snakes and spiders!!! I was quickly reminded that God created everything and even the things that we think are bad or not right was created in his perfect image. I will praise him in this storm and I will lift my head!! Here are a few scripture that I found
"God saw everything that he had made, and indeed, it was very good." (Genesis 1:31)
"Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made." (John 1:3)
"Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the heights above. Praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his heavenly hosts. Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars. Praise him, you highest heavens and you waters above the skies. Let them praise the name of the Lord, for he commanded and they were created. He set them in place for ever and ever; he gave a decree that will never pass away." (Psalm 148:1-6)![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIEEA6M17X4Ks3ZC91UXOeUBmhyphenhyphenaXfGjzuBT2d1qZgi6iRPdqFnHtFHTluMVmkcOW8_S96tF4g0oakCzlWh6R0E2COB7_xhWg4WBhIVLnFlpwEM3CxXbLUy0RqMzUMtom861DonQrjsDE/s320/DSC_0252.JPG)
I did capture this yellow flower coming out of the ground with a insect inside. Thought it was pretty cool!!
Famous Pumpkin Patch Pictures!
Something about a pumpkin patch, pictures, and precious little kids just go together! I think it is the change of the weather and different scenery that does it. Or in Luke and Addison's case it was just a great time to get the two together to run, laugh, and play with each other! You would have thought we took the kids to the fair as excited as they were running around crazy through pumpkins!! It was just precious! Speaking of precious Casey found a great deal on their matching outfits. Luke was sporting Frankenstein and Addison made a witch look really cute! I wanted to share a few pictures of our pumpkin fun :)
Luke and Addison trying really hard to pose for thier Mommy's in spite all the temptations to run around crazy and touch every pumpkin in the patch!
I didn't have any shoes that would complete this outfit so I decided to let Luke go barefooted for a bit. As soon as he touched the ground he said "Cowwld" meaning Cold on his feet!
Addison posing perfectly for a picture. I think she was trying to do a witch spell on the pumpkins with her waving hands!
"I love you Addisey!!"
Luke calls Addison "Addisey" Everytime he sees a picture of her he just says her name about five times and then goes about his business. Addison on the other hand loves to just laugh at all the funny things Luke does! He can be a clown sometimes! Me and Casey told Luke to give Addison a hug and he went right over and gave her love! They are going to be best buddies!

I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me!
Well it has been a few months since I have been in the blogging world. I am back for now and I have a lot of catching up to do!! So hopefully stay tuned for the "Denton family catch up!" I debated how to do this?? Should I start from several months ago or just dive into whats going on in our world today? I decided to work from today and slowly go backwards in hopes of not missing too much!
So it is hunting season and there are a lot a deer going down in our neck of the woods!! Landon has gotten in on the action and killed his first deer with his daddy on 10/18/2011. The story behind this first deer is so cute that I have gotta share it! Bobby and Landon camouflaged up and headed to Frank Dail's farm in hopes to kill a six pointer that Bobby and his Grandaddy has had their eyes on for Landon. Of course things didn't go quite as planned and instead of bucks they saw a lot of does!! Most of you reading this probably do not know what "buck fever" is so I will explain. Usually when you see a buck (especially a big one) you get really anxious and you start shaking with excitement. Well Landon got "doe fever" and kept saying that he couldn't shoot the doe because he couldn't be still. Bobby being the awesome dad that he is made Landon repeat after him, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!" Landon repeated the Scripture but not in time to get a shot of the first set of does. So the second group of does came out and sounds like it was just a repeat of the first step. Landon got upset because he couldn't be still and Bobby made him repeat the scripture again! This time Bobby said that the does heard Landon talking and the second group scattered and went back in the woods. Normally this would be the end of a hunt but in the last minute a single doe came out about 30 yards from their ground blind and Landon smoked em'. You really have to hear Bobby tell this story if you want a good laugh! Either way They were two proud boys!! Here are some pictures of Landon's doe and Bobby's 8 pointer!

This is a good picture of Bobby holding his deer. He is so in his element!!!
Luke was rubbing this deer's head like it was his pet! He wasn't scared of him at all!

PeeWee Ball 2011
This is the first year that Landon started playing peewee ball. Him and Peyton were fortunate enough to be on the same team called the Winterville BB&T Buck's. In Peewee the ball is pitched to them instead of hitting off of a tee. When I first saw how fast the machine pitched I thought that Landon would never hit the ball. Boy was I wrong!! It is so amazing how these kids just pick up where they left off and get better each year. Landon did a great job in all of his games hitting and fielding the ball. He even got a few outs and loved every minute of it!! Here are some pictures of him playing this past season.
I'm ready for anything that comes my way!
Being the littlest on the team doesn't mean you can't hit. Landon knocked several to the outfield!!
Luke wanted to play ball too!!
Landon and Peyton's biggest fans.........their brothers
Waiting for the ball to come his way
Landon fielded the ball at shortstop and he is looking to get an out at first!
Will someone please get a hit and run me in?????I'm ready for anything that comes my way!

Another Milestone for Landon!
I have been working for a few weeks on helping Landon ride his bicycle without his training wheels. I will have to admit I was a lot more scared than Landon ever thought about being when I was running along side of him. I was so afraid he was going to fall and hurt himself! This is when Daddy's tough love comes into play. I thought it would work out a whole lot better if Bobby ran along side of him a couple of times. Well what do you know Bobby gave him ONE push and he was off. I was so proud that Landon completed another milestone! I think he was really proud of himself as well! So of course the first run was stopped by falling off and several more after that were as well. One even ended by Landon running into Luke sitting in his stroller. (Luke looked at him like he was crazy!) Now we have to work on getting started on his own, stopping with his brakes, and learning tricks! Bobby use to be a trickster on his bicycle and I know he can't wait to teach Landon all of those things that he use to do. He has already started!
Here we go! Bobby is helping Landon get started with a push off
Look at me! I can ride my bike. When he fell of the first time he said, "this is too easy!" Getting mighty brave!
Bobby showing off some of his bicycle skills. Landon was loving it!
He hasn't lost his skills. He was doing all kinds of tricks with flip flops and a bicycle that was too little for him!
Luke was proud of Bra-Bra even if he did run into his stroller!

Guess Who is One??
It is so hard to believe that one whole year has gone by since Luke Allen was born. Time has really flown by and we have loved every minute of watching Luke grow into a little boy! I really had a good time going through all my pictures and picking the one that showed his growth over the year. I hope you all enjoy!
My first taste of cake and I loved it!! It didn't take me but a second to figure out that the yellow stuff went in my mouth!!
Other things about Luke @ 1
