I'm currently doing PT for a broken wrist - so Brevin has my understanding. FYI, the initials PT stands for Pain & Torture - and OT is Other Terrorism 🤣. Gotta have a good "story" behind an injury. Mine is that I was attacked by Ninjas!! And the fact I'm still alive means I got skills!! Sounds much better than slipping on my driveway, falling down and breaking my wrist (which required surgery + metal implants). Hope everyone is doing well - love watching your vlog!!
Great vlog guys enjoy watching this , Brevin I hope that arm gets better soon! Bless you guys praying for your family always love from England! The scones you guys have are so so differently ours but look yum!!! Keep up the great work I have those post notifications on😊
If I remember correctly, scones in the UK are like biscuits, a bit more dense and cake like. The scones we ate are made from bread dough that is fried in oil. Your scones are baked, right?
What Are We Doing? Yeah that’s correct we make like a dough and pop them in the oven. We often put raisins in it too and put cream and jam (jelly) on with a nice cup of English breakfast tea! I don’t think it can get more brutish 😂😂
Way to go Ella 👍🏻. So glad you’re out there getting some exercise. Stay active. You’re gonna grow up to be so tall 😻. Can’t wait to see this young girl grow up
Thank you so much! He has been back to the physical therapist and had some good news. He was able to remove the cast and had a new splint made that he will only have to wear at night and occasionally during the day. The physical therapist was very encouraged by the recent progress, and Brevin and I talked about how we felt it was an answer to prayers being offered in his behalf!
2 years ago I fell off my bike and damaged my growth plate in my right knee and I was ina cast and foot boot for 7 months!!!! Then I was in PT 3 times a week! For 5 months!!! And the dr said I’m gonna have pain in my knee till I stop growing but maybe for the rest of my life. Brevin hope your out of that cast soon!!! And glad camp was super fun!!! Love you guys💕
Sorry to see you are back in a cast Breven! Ellie had a couple good hits at her ball game. I think Garrett and his buddies had a great camping experience! I hope everyone has a Super Fantastic weekend!
Glad your going to follow up for Brevin I hope he doesn't have any arthritis problems He's so young Gluten can cause inflammation through your whole body if he's sensitive to it or can't tolerate it Does he have an digestive or gut problem? With me I was unable to absorb nutrients so I was low on everything When you have an autoimmune problem your body attacks healthy tissue I ended up having my thyroid completely destroyed have Celiac disease and MS All autoimmune diseases I'm sure it will give you peace to have it done I will keep Brevin in my prayers for healing Keep us posted on how he's doing
Sending hugs and prayers too Brevin.. Brevin is such a good young man.. Ella you sure know how too play ball.. kinda was wondering was something wrong with Garett or was he just tired he wasn’t himself because he’s always smiling and talking... Much love to you guys...
Thank you! We’ve recently had some good news for Brevin, and we feel it is a direct result of prayers and support that have come from so many like you!
I remember back awhile ago Brevin had gotten x-rays of his arm Did they ever find the underlying cause? I feel for him At his age going through this I hope the PT gives him relief Its funny how summer camp is over there and school still hasn't even finished yet Still has two weeks left I think girls softball is a great thing My daughter played when she was Ella's age Her career was short though because she tore her ACL. Had to have surgery and a long time on crutches. Hope you are all having a great summer so far
All x-rays and MRI images came back normal. His muscles and tendons seem to respond to trauma with a heightened tightness and co-contraction. There may be an autoimmune condition that may contribute, but we don’t know for sure.
How long did it take you guys to know that Brevin definitely broke his arm? Cuz my freshman year of high school I got his in the should by a pitching machine and now I am able to basically palm mg shoulder blade on my left side and every once in awhile am in pain it’s been 3-4 years since then as after this summer I’m heading off to college
We learned of the break at the time of injury about three years ago. It was a hairline fracture, so nothing major. His body’s response to the trauma and subsequent tightness had developed over the two years following. He has been seeing doctors and physical therapists for the past year to try and resolve the problem.
He had an injury to his elbow several years ago. All x-rays and MRI images came back normal. His muscles and tendons seem to respond to trauma with a heightened tightness and co-contraction. His arm stiffened and locked into place and he’s been unable to bend and extend it fully. There may be an autoimmune condition that may contribute, but we don’t know for sure.
Hw was ur camp Garrett?..Hope Brevin feels better. Ella playing some ball is really awesome .. Ur family is really cool ... Im a huge fan of u guys from Qatar🇶🇦.U guys should visit here sometime.Love u guys🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
He had an injury from playing tackle football almost three years ago. The elbow joint was fractured and in the healing process, his arm lost range of motion and his muscles and tendons responded by going into a co-contraction state. He’s being working with a physical therapist and surgeon to regain mobility in his arm.
Yes! Someone else who refers to them as elephant ears! That’s what I called them as a child (sometimes dragon ears). They are basically bread dough fried in hot oil. I think funnel cakes are a bit sweeter. These scones need the honey butter and cinnamon sugar to taste like a dessert treat.
What Are We Doing? Omg omg omg omg no way! I’m about to cry! To late!!! Omg who’s the one who said that btw can I have a shoutout please omg I’m sobbing my heart out
Braelyn Elswick It’s Amber. I’m usually the one who replies on comment threads, but Jason, Brevin, and Spencer see/read comments as well. Garrett and Ella don’t usually, but if there are specific comments left for them, we point them out to them. Again, we really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment on our vlogs. We love the support from our awesome RUclips community! 💗💕💗
Has he been tested for antibodies? It's a good thing to know if he has any autoimmune problems Get it tested early It took me seven years of being sick before I found out I had 3 autoimmune diseases It's just a blood test I was put on countless meds which didn't help I did My own research and found out diet is the most important thing you Can do for autoimmunity Gluten is a culprit I'm autoimmunity I am totally gluten free which I have to be because I have celiac disease Now I felt so much better I take zinc, magnesium and vitamin D I just don't want anyone to go through what I did Doctors don't want to talk about diets because they want to push pills Be comfortable with your dr If not move on to another I'm sorry this is so long but I'm speaking from the heart and experience
We’ve recently been recommended to a rheumatologist to check up on that very thing. Thank you for mentioning that. That reminds me that I need to follow up on it.

Brevin was trying to come up with a good story, but couldn’t think of one. He might have to use your ninja bit. That’s awesome!
Another vlog full of life long memories. Stories to share as they get older. Such a blessing.
Vlogging has been such a fantastic way for us to capture these moments. ☺️
Great vlog guys enjoy watching this , Brevin I hope that arm gets better soon! Bless you guys praying for your family always love from England! The scones you guys have are so so differently ours but look yum!!! Keep up the great work I have those post notifications on😊
Looks like a flannel cake from Canada’s wonderland!

Thank you for your thoughtful comments!
Way to go Ella 👍🏻. So glad you’re out there getting some exercise. Stay active. You’re gonna grow up to be so tall 😻. Can’t wait to see this young girl grow up
It will be fun to see just how tall she will get.
I bet. She’s beautiful. All your kids are beautiful inside and out. It shows. Good job mom and dad. Happy Father’s Day to pappa 👍🏻
Going to continue my prayers for Brevin and glad that Garrett had a good time. God Bless👍❤

That was a significant injury you had! I bet you were relieved to get out of that cast and boot after 7 months!
What Are We Doing? YES I WAS 😂
Sorry to see you are back in a cast Breven! Ellie had a couple good hits at her ball game. I think Garrett and his buddies had a great camping experience! I hope everyone has a Super Fantastic weekend!
We appreciate your thoughtful comments 😊
The last part was funny to me as no one gave you piece(because there hands were full🤔) 😂😂

Thank you ☺️
I was at Disney over the weekend. Hopefully Brevin feels better!
Oh I bet you had so much fun! We love it there 😊
We just came back from vacation and trying to catch up on your videos.
Poor Brevin. Well at least he has good doctors and support staff to help.
I hope you had a wonderful vacation! You are sweet to want to catch up 😊
We love you guys so much
Thank you so much!
Hope Brevin feels better and he's looking sharp in those glasses!!
Thank you! I think he should wear them more often 😊🤓
Sending hugs and prayers too Brevin.. Brevin is such a good young man.. Ella you sure know how too play ball.. kinda was wondering was something wrong with Garett or was he just tired he wasn’t himself because he’s always smiling and talking... Much love to you guys...
He was soooo tired. I could tell he didn’t sleep too much at his summer camp 😂
Hopefully Brevin feels better soon. Being injured is not the most fun thing to go through.
He’s only seeing very slow progress, so it’s been frustrating for him. Thank you for expressing concern.
LOL BREVIN, I AM SURE THAT ALL YOUR FLEXION WILL RETURN, AND EVERYTHING WILL BE JUST FINE.
Thank you! It is helpful to have encouragement from our viewers!
YOU' RE WELCOME BREVIN, LOL.👍✋🏼👌👏🤘🏻👊🏼🙏❤️😍👏🏻
BREVIN, HOW IS YOUR ARM DOING TODAY?
Praying 🙏
Thank you! We’ve recently had some good news for Brevin, and we feel it is a direct result of prayers and support that have come from so many like you!
I can only imagine how frustrated Brevin must feel. Hopefully soon he will be all fixed up.
He was not happy, but the good news is the cast has recently been traded for a removable splint. For now, at least.... 🤞🏼
Scones are different in the UK but those ones also look delicious 😍
In the UK they are more dense, right? Like a biscuit or cake?
I hope your arm gets better xxx
Thanks for the encouraging support!
Thanks for liking x
Your welcome x

So sorry Brevin is still having issues with his arm. I am praying he will get better soon.
Thank you! He has had some recent progress, and we feel certain that prayers and encouraging support have been involved in helping him along the way 😊

Defiantly get some new glasses before Disneyland! Cool clothes and water bottles too, it gets HOT there!!! ;) Blessings, Lisa Unruh
We usually do Disneyland in April, so we are definitely going to have to adapt for the summer temperatures. Thanks for that reminder! 😊
Aww.... Get well soon Brevin
Thank you for the well wishes 😊
What is the exact issue with Brevin's arm?
He had an injury to his elbow several years ago. All x-rays and MRI images came back normal. His muscles and tendons seem to respond to trauma with a heightened tightness and co-contraction. His arm stiffened and locked into place and he’s been unable to bend and extend it fully. There may be an autoimmune condition that may contribute, but we don’t know for sure.
@@WhatAreWeDoing Thanks a lot for replying!
How did you arrive at the name Ella for your daughter? It is such a beautiful name!
We looked at a list of baby names for girls, and that one caught our attention. I read somewhere that Ella means “beautiful fairy” and I liked that 😊
@@WhatAreWeDoing Thanks a lot for replying!
I know how not getting better feels. I hope Brevin feels better soon.
It’s a little frustrating, but everything will be alright ☺️
@@WhatAreWeDoing Yes, it will.
Hw was ur camp Garrett?..Hope Brevin feels better. Ella playing some ball is really awesome .. Ur family is really cool ... Im a huge fan of u guys from Qatar🇶🇦.U guys should visit here sometime.Love u guys🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I would love to visit Qatar! It has always been a dream of mine to travel with my family so they can see new places and learn about new cultures.
I hope Brevin feels better soon
Thank you! That’s very kind of you to say ☺️
I tried American scones for the first time at my baptism in may, they are different from our scones in the uk but verry nice
The ones we had were a lot like Navajo fry bread. My grandmother used to make scones that were very different than these as well.
I’m new so did he injure his arm awhile ago and didn’t heal right ? Or has his arm just been like that?
Somethings going on with his body they havent got it figured out yet
He had an injury from playing tackle football almost three years ago. The elbow joint was fractured and in the healing process, his arm lost range of motion and his muscles and tendons responded by going into a co-contraction state. He’s being working with a physical therapist and surgeon to regain mobility in his arm.
Love your videos
Thank you so much for letting us know that! 😊
I love you vids
We’re so glad you enjoy them. 😊
How are Brevin and Shari doing?
Tis off
They haven’t seen each other or really been in contact since school got out.
I hope Brevin's arm gets better. Glad Garrett had a good time at camp. Ella did a great job at her softball game! Love your family!
Thank you! Brevin had some better news at his last PT appointment so he is out of the cast and in a splint instead. He’s thrilled about that!
That scone looked like an elephant ear/funnel cake
Yes! Someone else who refers to them as elephant ears! That’s what I called them as a child (sometimes dragon ears). They are basically bread dough fried in hot oil. I think funnel cakes are a bit sweeter. These scones need the honey butter and cinnamon sugar to taste like a dessert treat.
First comment love you guys!

We’ve recently been recommended to a rheumatologist to check up on that very thing. Thank you for mentioning that. That reminds me that I need to follow up on it.
Oh no you guys need to try real scones!
I know there are a lot of variations of a scone, depending on where you live. The ones we ate are more like fry bread.
Fry bread is still delicious!! Yumm

Playing with soccer cleats
Yes, those are her soccer cleats.
