...but after a while, i knew we were different.
{october 2004 - cross country invitational}and we were...because here we are, 6 years later...
{october 2004 - my first homecoming dance}in love, married...and the happiest we have ever been.
{winter 2004 - i have no idea}ted, i laugh thinking that i thought you were the hottest shiz ever.
{december 2004 - making ice cream outside...freezing}
...because, let's face it...we were both pretty heeeedious back then.
{spring 2005 - "sadie hawkin's dance"}good thing we grew out of our awkwardness.
{may 2005 - day activity before prom}
because, srsly...sick.to.the.nast.
{may 2005 - ted's state track meet}but anyway...back to the mushy crap...
{may 2005 - prom night}this week we are celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary together...
{may 2005 - ted's graduation}so i want to start off the celebration by saying...
{october 2005 - my choir concert}i am so lucky to have you, and to be married to the...
{halloween 2005 - carving pumpkins}funniest, sweetest, and most handsome fella in the world.
{winter 2005 - date night}i know all the ladies are totes jealous...
{december 2005 - my senior winter formal}
but don't let it go to your head, because let's face it...you are already cocky.
{christmas 2005}...just sayin'...just sayin'.

I met hubs when I was 16 he was 18, we've been together for 11.5 yrs and married for almost 8. We have three kids, a house, two dogs, two cars, and are totes boring! But, still in love.
PS - congrats on having so many pictures of the two of you! Somehow in all these years, we just didn't end up with that many ...
Also, forgot to mention;
Super cute post, Congrats you two, and really, it just gets better (well the little kid stage can be rough, but, in general, it's up from here :)
Congratulations! I'm so happy for you guys and hope that you have many many more years to come. Both of you are so lucky to have each other, and I'm so glad to hear that you love each other so much!
And just wondering- in this picture "{may 2005 - day activity before prom}", is Ted wearing eyeliner? :D cause he sure looks like he is!

Ok, that may sound extremely weird, but I seriously have tears in my eyes right now.
Congratulations you two on your first wedding anniversary!
How (mostly) sweet! Congrats on your upcoming anniversary!
You guys are seriously sweet. I hope I can find a guy who can love me as much as he loves you!!! ( said the overly romantic 13 1/2 year old )
so cute! my boyfriend and i have been dating since I was fifteen too. i wish it was socially acceptable to get married at 20 if you weren't mormon.cause dating for six years kinda sucks, ya know?
Cute. So glad you are both so happy. (Ive never seen the Mission Call pic--love it)
hhahahah what great photos!!! love the fact that you were so young when you met!!!!
I LOVE the pictures when you were younger. I wish I knew Michael when he was a young! CONGRATS on your one year anniversary and the many more to come!
happiness...so sweet!
Happy Anniversary, Lauren and Ted!
Happy Anniversary!! The pix are cute of you two and your love story.
Aww--that is so sweet! So happy that both of you have been happy for so long. Never listen to those stupid people who say that it will never last or that you guys won't always be this happy. They said that same thing to me and my hubby, and I'm here to tell you, every year, it will only get better. Here's to many more years of you and the Tedward being perfectly happy!
Happy Anniversary Lauren and Ted! :)
Aww yall are too stinkin cute!
High school sweethearts...*sigh*...you're so fortunate. My high school boyfriend was LAME.
I agree with Allison. Is Tedward wearing eyeliner/makeup in that picture? Was that your activity-to put make up on the guys? That would be pretty funny but then it could just be the angle???
Congrats on one year! People always say the first year is the hardest but if your was anything like mine the first year was the best!!! We just celebrated our second and the second is pretty dang good too :) I'll smooch my man when he gets home from school.
Happy Anniversary Lauren and Ted!! You two are such an adorable couple. Good Luck in the years to come!!
beautiful post,
Happy Anniversary!
Ha-ha.. Love the old-school pict's!
I laughed at the first one.. but dude.. your not like me.. with the tall-see-how-high-you-can-get-your-hair phases.. they are classic!
My favorite picture of them all is the mission call one.
~ And your cute with straight hair!
Congrats! I loved our first anniversary....have a blast making it your anniversary week.
Happy First Anniversary! You guys are so stinkin cute!
I love mushy love stories. Yours is so sweet and sticky.... so is mine. To be brief, Scott and I met 17 years ago on Aug. 27th, 1992! It was my first year of college and he was in his junior year. This Oct. 2nd will be our 10 year anniversary.
Cheers to long, lovely, and mushy bliss!
Aww that is super duper sweet. I would never do that for my husband, because, well, he wouldn't give a crap. You two are so cute. Congrats on the first year mark and I hope you have many more wonderful years to come!
Happy Anniversary! What a cute story..
I love this post!!! you guys are soo cute :)
Very sweet....congratulations!
Happy anniversary, you old farts!
That first picture of Ted is fantastic.
I love all the old pictures!
Awwwwww yall are so cute! Happy Anniversary!
Loved the pictures!
That was adorable. You are lucky to have each other. Happy 1st Anniversary!
How cute are those pictures??
Happy anniversary! :)
Love awkward pics. makes me feel so much better about the way I look now. Knowing that someday pics of me will bring joy and laughter to others.
P.S. I totally ran cross country too, sucks don't it.
Awww! The hubs and I are celebrating our 2nd anniversary this week! Read our love story here: http://buttercakes.squarespace.com/blog/2009/9/15/another-celebration-our-2-year-anniversary.html
Beautiful sentiments per usual, but really I just have to say that looking through dorky old pictures of myself is kind of a favorite activity. So much so that it would seem narcisistic if I actually found them attractive, but I don't. I do it for the lolz. I'm so happy you shared some of your old and best.
Happy First Anniversary to the most meant-to-be couple that I know (half of)!! XO!
Congratulations on your first year of marriage! You and the Tedward are adorable. :) Happy Anniversary!
Congrats! It only gets better from here. I don't know why you think you two were sicknast, you are super cute! Although I do think Ted has Jasper hair in the first picture. Don't hate me for saying that!
i am so glad you guys took so many pictures. i love them and you were so not hideous! you two are so darling and i love ya! i am mad at ya for not showing up last night...but i will forgive you soonenough
.....waiting....waiting....
okay i forgive you. xoxo
Happy anniversary! You two are adorable, both the and now. Congrats!
Awwww! Hooray for high school sweethearts!
I fallow your other blog but didnt know your personal life was open to the public too! You crack me up! Happy Anniversary!
Ted went to Madagascar?! That is awesome! My aunt and uncle were mission presidents in Madagascar, I can't remember the dates of when they were there though.
Anyhoo, happy anniversary! Hope its a good one!!! It only gets better with time, I promise!
I got a call from my bff and she told me she was looking at this post and getting all choked up about how cute u and ted are! And that I had to get on and see all the pics! She was right, I did love looking at it, u two are the most adorable couple! Maddison is dating a boy who is about to get his mission call in the mail and I just text her at school and told her she had to get on and see all the cute pics, she said "Yay, I will!" You are an inspiration to all of us girls in Idaho! HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Make a nice big poster like sign and take picture with it and continue the tradition through out the years!

OOOpsie! I posted the same comment twice...
Isn't it amazing how just yesterday morning, you were having one of "those days", but look how it turned out.
What a fabulous photo diary of you two! That is fabulous! September is the best month to get married in! Congrats!
Aw! Happy Anniversary!
I heart you guys :)
Congratulations Lauren and Ted! Many more years, and many more happy memories will follow!
Happy Anniversary! :) my sis-in-law and her hubby man celebrate their's on the 22nd...and they find out what their baby will be on the 21st. :D
YAY! I love mush fests! That post was so fun! it's crazy to look back at old pictures and see how much things have changed! congrats on one year! :)
This makes me smile. Kevin and I weren't HS sweethearts. Although I do have a pic of us when we were 18 and 23. Now 23 and 28. Makes me feel old as well. Did you check out your feature of me blogski?
you two are sooo beautiful!
Happy Anniversary! Such a cute post. Thank you for sharing all those awesome photos!
I seriously love this post. It's sweet and it shows that you can meet the one at anytime and no matter what people say true love wins. I've known my hubby since kindergarden and we started dating our first year of college. We've been married for four years but together for 11. People said that was crazy, it wouldn't last, you can't meet your soul mate when you are kid, but we showed them. I'm excited for the rest of your mush fest I love this sappy stuff. Happy 1 year anniversary.
Oh my goodness, Lauren, this is my most favorite of all your posts! Congratulations! Here's to many more happy anniversaries. :)
wow you were truly together since the dawn of your time! its amazing. Happy anniversary!
Happy 1 year anni!
I've been hitched for 5 years now, and I still feel the same as I did then! Cheers!
First:: Neither of you were "heedious", you were both absolutely adorable!
Second:: I don't want my daughter to have a steady boyfriend in high school, but if it happens, I want it to happen for her the way it did you for and Ted.
Third:: Happy Anniversary!!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY LAUREN!
This was one of the funniest/"mushiest" posts I've read read!
In Arg we call the 1st Anniversary a Paper Wedding <3 Happy Paper Wedding!
This is SO SWEET. It reminds me of my best friend and her boyfriend, who have been together since 10th grade and who will probably get married after we graduate from college. We're freshmen now. Hopefully, they'll get to look back in a few years and see how their relationship has grown too!Congratulations and best wishes for the future! I'm so glad it DID last despite all those naysayers. All my love, Lindsay
omg i just got the best goosebumps everrr!
this is so sweet.
true love...awww :)
congratulations! happy anniversary!
Happy One Year! and God Bless. You are an ispiration to this soon to be Mrs. (Getting hitchd on the 26th!!!)
so sweet. i think every relationship goes through that weird awkward phase, or it could just be me...
*kissing picture of rob*
love the first picture of you guys! i love OLD pictures!
Happy Anniversary!!!!
You two are a beautiful couple and I love your story and that you have stuck it out and proved 'em all wrong.
My boyfriend and I also met when we were 15 and 16, and we're still together 5 years later. You and The Tedward's story (from way back) is inspiring. Congrats, and best of luck with the coming years!
omg that sadie hawkins dance picture is hysterical!
happy anniversary lovebirds!
seriously. wish you the happiest happiest happiest of happily ever afters.
That first picture of you guys is soooooo cuuuuuuuute! You folks are pretty people. :-)
And waddayamean you're old? Do you have the faintest idea of how many people you are making feel über-old by saying that?
Oh my heavens that is the cutest thing I have ever seen. My parents met at the same age and did the same thing. I love it, I always wanted it myself. I had one I thought would last but things changed when we graduated, it was heartbreaking. But I wouldn't trade who I have now for anything. I'm so glad you guys could make it, I think it's beautiful!
Congratulations! I love to see love stories like this work out!
How sweet and i loved all the pics!:)
i think my hormones are out of whack right now..but i cried..literally
Congrats on your first anniversary! Here's to many more to come!
I can't remember if I commented on this, so I am anyway. I totally LOVE and Ted together! I love that you still take picture in the pose in the first picture! It's so cool to see how you grew together and eventually became married!
how sweet! i love this post! I can't believe you were high school sweethearts! i love that! so precious! xoxo
