The Urgent Care...

This past week has not been fun for me... Last Sunday I woke up with a 103 fever and had the worst cough in the world! Yup, that's right everyone... I caught the flu bug again!!!! I cried like a little baby all day and was hoping this was only going to be a 24 hour flu bug, like the last one. I don't think I was one of the lucky ones... I went to sleep that night and woke up every hour with the horrible night sweats and a cough that would not leave me alone. The next day I felt a little better, but not good enough to go to work. I called in sick and pretty much slept all day long. That whole day Kevin ran around trying to get whatever would make me feel better. He hates when I'm sick and hates to know I'm in pain. I wont lie, I seriously needed something every 5 minutes. Kevin literally never sat down for more than 5 minutes. I felt bad, but he knows I would of done the same things for him if he was sick. 

The second day went by still feeling the same. My fever was staying at a constant 102 was not going down. I must have taken 5 different showers that day trying to breath in all the hot steam I could. But no matter what I tried, nothing was working. 42 hours with this fever and the flu bug in my body was miserable. That night I started feeling a little better and I got my temperature down to 99.6 which was a lot better then 102 for 2 days straight! That night I went to sleep and slept for a little while longer then the first night but still woke up around 3 o'clock not feeling that good. We took my temperature again and it had gone back up to 102!!!!! I was not happy... This was the third day with this bug and for some reason it wouldn't leave my body! 72 hours went by and Kevin started to worry about me a little bit and had decided to take me to the urgent care by our house. We got the doctors and signed me in. Then waited for them to call me back, which ended up being about a half an hour. The doctor checked me out and ran a couple of different test on me. After waiting about an hour.... All they could tell me was, it is a viral thing and I just had to wait and let it pass. But they couldn't give me an antibiotic to help because it had already been over 72 hours, the antibiotic wouldn't help me at all... I was so mad! They doctor did nothing!!!! All she gave me was a prescription for some cough medicine. I seriously thought there was no hope for me... I told Kevin I was never going back to that urgent care... They were no help! 

Last night I took some cough medicine and took some more Tylenol and went to bed. This morning I woke up and am feeling 100% better!!! I was so happy this bug was gone! Finally I can sleep like a normal person again! Haha!

A Quick Update...

Hi Everyone! I know i haven't written on our blog in awhile... And I know our family and friends are probably wondering if we are even still alive... Just to let everyone know we are ok and still alive. Thing are going well here in Arizona. Since we have gotten back from Christmas break, Kev and I have been pretty busy. Well, lets say I have been pretty busy.. Kevin hasn't even started his second semester of school yet! Haha! Arizona State ended up giving the students like a month off from school over the Holidays. So the last couple weeks while I have been getting up and going to work everyday, Kevin has been sleeping in and laying around our house. I got jealous a few times, those early mornings when my alarm was going off, yelling at me to get up! haha! 

Something else really exciting that has happened, is that I have started a new work schedule. I get off  early Tuesday and Thursday afternoons now, which is so nice being able to come home at noon and spend the rest of the day with Kevin. It will also be nice for him come school starts too! Since i will be off early, he wont have to ride the city bus on those days or walk home from school. I will be home early enough that he can just take the car. Kevin is really excited to start his second semester of school. He starts tomorrow and is excited about his classes this semester! I love him so much and am so proud of him!!! 

Exciting Week!

This has been a really exciting week for the little Scott family! There were some big things that happend this weekend! Kevin and I both love this time of year. People putting up Christmas lights, family gatherings, and of course you can't forget about the Christmas music that gets played everywhere you go! This has been such an exciting week for Kev and I that we decided that we wanted to share it with everyone! 

This Thursday was Thanksgiving!!! Kev and I both had a lot to be thankful for this year. We knew it was going to be different this year, being away from both of our parents, but we were grateful that we were getting to spend this year with each other. But not only was it just Thanksgiving, it was also Cooper's 4th birthday! That afternoon we went and enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving meal at a beautiful resort here in Arizona. The food was amazing and it was nice spending the day with family. After lunch, we went to see a movie for Coopers birthday. We ended up watching the movie "Bolt". I've never laughed so hard ever in a movie before! Kevin and I both loved it and enjoyed spending time with Cooper on his birthday. After the movie we headed over to Aunt Kristy's for cake and ice cream! Cooper ended up having 4 or 5 different cakes or pies to choose from! He didn't know which one to eat first! Haha! Kev and I had a great Thanksgiving! 

Later on that night Kevin and I had a lot of fun looking through the Black Friday ads and finding all the good deals! It is kinda a tradition in my family, that the day after Thanksgiving all the girls wake up super early and go shopping! Well... this year was a little different. I wasn't able to be with my family this year so i dragged Kev along with me! hehe! I love him so much! He was such a trooper through it all and was such a big help through all those big crowds. 

The next day was Kevin's BIG 24th!!! I surprised him when he woke up with the house decorated with streamers and balloons everywhere and breakfast already made! Kev was so happy! After breakfast, Kev couldn't wait to open his gifts for me! I tried to talk him into waiting till later on that night but he just couldn't wait. I got Kev a couple of the Nike dri- fit t-shirts that he has been wanting for awhile, but i ended up getting him the wrong size. So we got ready for the day and went to the mall to exchange them. Kevin and I both love shopping. No matter if it's for him or for me or for the house. He will go with me every time I want to go. I never have to worry about ever going shopping alone. haha! After the mall Kev got to choose where we got to go for lunch. Then after lunch we went to go pick up Kev's cake from the Cheesecake Factory! He was so excited that he tried eating and picking at the cake all the way over to Ryan and Sarah's that night. We went over there later that night for cake and gifts. Kevin had such a good time hanging out with his family and enjoying everyone's company. Later on that night, I took Kevin miniature golfing at Golfland! We had so much fun golfing and spending time together. On the way there Kev made me a deal that, whoever won had to wake up extra early Sunday morning and make breakfast. I thought to myself, poor Kevin... He's going to have to wake up early before church and make me breakfast... I was the one that had to wake up extra early and make breakfast! haha! The little weasel beat me by 2 points! Overall Kevin had an amazing birthday and loved spending the whole day together! 

So there was our busy but very exciting weekend! We are so grateful for eachother and specially for family. They really do mean a lot to us!

The D-Backs Game!

Kevin and I finally got the opportunity to go see a major league baseball game yesterday. Kevin has been to a couple of baseball games before with his family, but i have never been to a big major league game before. It was so exciting!!! Kevin's brother Ryan, gave us two gift cards for the Diamondbacks and we were able to go and watch one of their last games of the season! The place we were wanting to sit was the, all you can eat section. The seats weren't that great in the section but you got all you can eat hot dogs, nachos, soda pop, popcorn & peanuts! We thought that was a pretty good deal. But when we got there, the only seats they had left were way up top! Kevin decided instead of getting the all you can eat food, we would just pay the extra $12 and get great seats, so that I could have a really fun experience at my first major league game. 

The Game was AWESOME!!!! We had so much fun together! Kevin bought me some soft-served ice cream that came in a little D-Backs helmet! He is so sweet!!! I will never forget going to my first major league game! 

Thank you Ryan!!!!!!!!!

A Quick Update!

As some of you know, I started my new job this last week! Things have been going really well for Kevin and I lately. I am loving my new job! Not only do I get to be a receptionist full-time for one of the top physical therapy clinics in Arizona, but also get to watch and learn the physical therapy world too! I am having so much fun and love learning new things everyday. 

Kevin is doing awesome in school this semester!!! At the beginning, he was a little nervous that he wasn't going to understand a few of his classes. Turns out, almost half way through the semester, Kevin has the highest grade in almost all of his classes!!!!!! CONGRATS KEV!!!!!!!! I am so proud of you!!!!!!!! 

We are so grateful for eachother and for all the many blessings. We know we couldn't of done some of the things we have accomplished thus far, in our lives without having one another there to lean on for support.  I am so grateful for Kevin and all the things he does for me, and for his strength and being such a good role model for me. He has been my best friend since I was 14 years old. Getting married and making that commitment to eachother, i now get to have my best friend with me for time and all eternity!!!!!!

CONGRATS ASLYN!!!!!

This week has been very exciting for Aslyn. She had an interview last Tuesday for Ahwatukee Physical Therapy to be there full-time Receptionist! After the interview she came home feeling really good about the interview and about the people she would be working with. They explained to her that they were going to be interviewing with a couple more people for the position throughout this week and that they would let her know about the job by the end of the week. Thursday came around and she started getting a little nervous.. She waited by the phone all day and didn't hear anything. Until 6pm rolled around and she got a phone call!!! It was her boss offering her the job! She was so happy and so excited about this position. She wont just be a receptionist but her boss will be training her also in Physical Therapy. We are so very grateful for this job coming at the right time and we know our prayers were answered. 

Our new apartment!

Sorry it has taken us awhile to get some pictures up of our apartment. We have been trying to get everything in it's own place but realize it's hard in a small 1 bedroom apartment. We both didn't realize until we got all of our stuff in our apartment, how much junk we both had. But here are a few pictures of our new home. We both love our apartment and are very happy with it!
