Brandon's back!

This week we took Brandon to his first soccer practice since breaking his leg. He's started to walk better, so we thought we'd try it.

 He did pretty well, but started to limp again afterward.  I talked to one of the dads who happens to be an orthopedic surgeon.  He said it takes FOREVER to get back to normal after a break.  He watched Brandon walk and run and said he's perfectly normal, it's just going to take awhile.  He played in his game on Saturday, but only for a short time because he was hopping and it was really hard to keep up with the pace of indoor soccer.  It was hard on him. He was upset about not keeping up or playing much, so we are hoping he'll get back to normal sooner than later.

 Sydney came to watch practice with me because we were going to Grandma & Papa Gibson's ward trunk-or-treat right after.  The bleachers are this fantastic red, so we did a mini-photo shoot.

 Sydney is always willing to pose for pictures!

 This one was her idea and it's pretty cute :)

 Then she took a picture of me from behind talking with the other moms.  Soccer mom!

 Here is Brandon in action.  Looks pretty good B!

You played hard at practice and your hard work will pay off!
