I have been torturing myself for the past few weeks. Why? Well, Derek and I had some sweet anniversaries (yes, plural) at the beginning of the month and I didn't blog about them. Something about the idea of blogging about anniversaries is, I don't know, not really something I wanted to blog about. However, I just can't not do it. I've decided that I wanted to share:
This is one of Derek and I's first pictures together. We were on the same T-ball teams for two years. I'm the squirrelly blonde on the bottom right, and Derek is on the back row, second from the right. If you went to school with either of us, you probably know every person in this picture. This is where the romance began~
We started dating 10 years ago! Back when we were Sophomores in High School. Derek finally noticed me and it was the best thing ever! Our first kiss was June 2, 1999- so we just celebrated ten years of kissing this month! It's fantastic.
These are just some randoms of us from High School. They were crazy times, full of High School drama that we laugh about now. We didn't think we were going to get married, I mean, who marries their high school sweet heart?
This is one of my favorite pics of us from the olden days. This was our Senior Commencement Pic. 
Derek took me on a smokin' date a few weeks after he returned from his mission, trying to convince me that I should marry him. He didn't know that I was also trying to convince him. It didn't take long for me to ask him when we were going to get married. He was pleasantly surprised by my inquiry, and so we got working on the wedding plans about 6 weeks from the time he returned from his mission. This pic is from after his mission, before we were engaged.
Three months later, on June 4, 2004, we were married in the Idaho Falls Temple! Best day ever! So we just celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary as well. I love my man and work so hard to keep him happy! I am happier than I ever thought I could be. He's the man and I love his guts. Whew, I just had to get that off my chest.

Don't tell anyone that the other girl (with her eyes closed) is me :-) Isn't it crazy looking back and seeing you have known your husband for 10 years! Makes me feel old! Congrats on 5 years and 2cute babies!
I'll have to let Devin and his mom know they made a cameo on your blog. So fun to see some old pics of you guys.
That t-ball picture is priceless. So cute and you and your sweetie are so cute. congratulations on loving life.
Five years...us too, and it feels SO weird! Then to say how long we've been dating...makes me feel kind of old. I think marrying your high school sweetheart is the only way to go though! :o)
I love that you guys have literally known each other forever! Sometimes I feel gipped (is that even how you spell that word?) that I have to learn everything about Scott's first 29 years of live through his tales of it. I always think I would've loved to have known him in high school etc. He is convinced we never would've ended up together if that were the case. Anyway-this shouldn't be turning into a story about me!
You two are adorable. I loved seeing the high school pics and the post mission pic!! So so cute.
Happy Anniversaries!! :)
Oh this blog is so cute! Why would you not want to blog about your anniversaries? You two have a wonderful romance that others envy, including myself. I wish I knew Frank in elementary school instead of just Jr High! :) Congratulations you guys!
Congrats on 10 years of kissing! ;) I'm pretty sure that I was there for a lot of the high school drama! So fun! I still think about how I took him to a dance while you two were dating, slightly weird! HA HA!
