Livin our love song

So here is where everything changes...for everyone.
Well i graduated from High School and took the plunge to college. After my first year i decided the small town good girl needed a real adventure, so i decided to study abroad for a semester.

5 Months in Madrid, Spain

 19 and all alone in Europe. I was so naive and dumb. I mean its something everyone says when they are older, I don't know how I survived. I didn't have a lot of extra money but i was determined to make the best of it. So lonely visits to Ireland and England were what i got. I walked I hitchhiked. I met people that learned English from watching 
It was exciting. Meeting new people and seeing different sides of places. I didn't travel or study abroad to hang out with other Americans or see all of the regular tourist spots. I wanted to see what the natives loved. I will never forget the feeling of standing in front of Stonehenge. The history and magic of the place was just indescribable.  
But it was lonely. I wanted someone to share it all with. And when i came back to the USA i found that person, my person.

So fast forward we bought a house, got married, rescued 2 dogs and lived happily ever after, the End.
If only. Little did we know that our Happily Ever After was going to be a fight of ups and downs. Yes i know people always say that marriage is hard and everyone struggles but Holy Bananas it has been 10 years and saying it was tough or a struggle seems like one heck of an understatement.
