Hello all the way from Madrid...that's right friends, as in Madrid, Espana!!! So as you can imagine, i'm pretty much livin' the high life. This is day two in Madrid, after a two day stay in Sao Paulo, a four day stay in rio de Janiero, and a two day stay in buenos aires. I have seen the most amazing things and have met the most amazing people. I can't even begin to describe how very blessed I am. This experience has literally changed my life. I'm so very grateful for those individuals who inspired me to pursue this crazy dream of mine. I truly thought I would never be able to fulfill this dream...but here I am, in Madrid sitting in a hostel after an entire day of exploring one of the most gorgeous cities in the world. NUTTERS!!!! Muchos besos...all the way across the Atlantic ocean Kenzi

the adventures of carpet cleaning

hey guys!!! sorry i am a little behind in posting. Life has been so crazy here in provo. i know that sounds hard to believe but provo life is so busy and wonderful. So one awesome story i want to share with you is called... " the van in the road". So for carpet cleaning the machine is inside the van. well a coworker and i were cleaning when the machine turned off we went out to find out what had happened. we turned on the car and we find out the car is empty on gas. haha so we figured we better go get some gas. Off we took on our wonderful adventure. we were like one minute away when we were turning into an intersection and the van just stopped. so here we are in the middle of the road and the van will not move. the best part of the whole thing was there was a gas station with a sign that said" don't get stranded"oh the irony :)  so my coworker ran down the street got some gas and came back. meanwhile i directed traffic and enjoyed that part of the adventure:) anyway life is wonderful. miss my friends dearly!!! as for the goals: money check. Getting fit: procession. blog: officially check


you guys are great!!

Staying Busy in Washington

Hey Hey! This Chelsea, lucky for you it is my turn to post :) a little bit about me: Blonde, from Washington, known for random outbursts of craziness (in a fun way), saying things on my mind, and my favorite colors are green and yellow (--but not so much together, unless they are of a more pastel tint, that could be cute. I have to specify because when I say green and yellow together it reminds me of my school colors in Junior High, it was a forest-y kind of green and a banana yellow, repulsing right?), I love these girls, and I am blessed to know them! I am excited for this blog and to stay in touch this summer. I feel like whenever friends are going to part they always say that they will keep in touch and talk all the time but rarely does that occur. This blog will definitely help us out :)

EXAMPLE: Today-- I was thinking about this wonderful blog and the exciting opportunity that I have to post this week and then I realized I didn't know any of the blog account info (as far as the password and email address). So I whipped out my telephone and sent a text Kenzi's way, a couple hours later the dear woman called me :) It made me happy to see her name pop up as my phone was vibrating, as I answered I was able to talk with her a bit as well as get the information that I needed :) You see, this was special because she leaves for Utah today (She gets to see Shay, I won't say that I am jealous-- but ok yes, I am jealous!) and then to Brazil tomorrow! I am so excited for her!!! I hope she has a blast and comes back to me safely!
This example goes to show that this blog is really good for us, and well good for anyone reads this, who wouldn't want to be our friends (aka become subscribers)?

Alright, so this summer I am working at Yokes Fresh Market for the third summer in a row. I work with some pretty fascinating and fun people. Coming back this summer really feels like I never left for school; not a whole lot has changed, aside from wages and a few newbies. Its a good job and I am glad they were willing to take me back. Ah also- this summer I am lucky enough to be around for quite a few of my friends weddings. It is extremely weird for me so far, don't get me wrong, I am very excited for them, they are all so happy and are making good decisions, it is just weird for me. Anyways, Kenz and I went to our friend, Kassie (no longer Roundy)'s reception. It was a fun time, and oh my goodness did she look beautiful :) And she was just so happy, Her Husband is a great guy and someone that she deserves. It was neat to see them together along with their families. This was just the first of many, I hope that as they come and go it gets easier for me to see my friends get married. They are all wonderful.

Ok wow this is super long, I don't want it to seem like I am dominating this thing so I am going to stop now haha You are welcome to follow my personal blog if you enjoy my ramblings.(http://randommusingsofavivaciousblonde.blogspot.com/) Love you all! Hope all is going well for ya! Please let us (Shay, Kenz, and me) know if there is anything that you need, or wanna hear us talk about, we are here for y'all! Take Care!


Love-- Chelsea

Operation Cinderella = Full Force

It's me, Kenzi.  And I have the fortunate opportunity of writing the first individual post.  Provo is now far behind me.  One extremely long 10 hour drive later, and a lot of money spent of gasoline, and I'm back the W-A!! Holla!!  I love this place! Nothing beats coming home, it's gotta be the very best feeling in the world.
But before I get to all that, our last night in Provo was a night to remember.  To put it simply, it was a night of shennanigans, war paint, wrapping paper, sparkling cider, loud music, videos, smiles, and lots of laughs...as well as little sleep - which proved to be slightly detrimental the following day while driving.  It was a fantastic way to end a school year.
Now I am home, and like I said, nothing beats coming home.  There's the hugs and smiles, the help of unpacking, and everyone wants to talk to you.  Then all that passes.  And there's the question...What in the world am I going to do with my life?  My two lovely parents have thoughtfully solved that problem for me.  I lovingly call it "Operation Cinderella".  Each of my lovely parents have created a chore wish list...just for yours truly.  Am I blessed, or what?  First task:  painting the downstairs bedroom.  Status of said task...not done...not even close.  But luckily I have all summer, that should make my mother happy :)
In other news, there is only 15 days until this chica takes off on my grand adventure.  Some like to call it a study abroad, I prefer the phrase "trip of a lifetime".  I mean who gets to travel to Brazil, Argentina, Portugal, and Spain in one round?  Oh, that's right, I DO!!  And in case you are wondering - I am BEYOND excited!!

Muchos besos,
Kenzi

Hello World!!

Hello World! It is We - the Elite Three!  Are you ready for us? I don't know...probably not.  This is us, united for the last time for four months. Not three, not two, not one...but FOUR!  We're not sure how we are gonna survive...BUT, if you buy two completos - it's only two dollar.  Haha! Jokes, we love jokes.   Anywho - we are hoping that this blog binds us together in the bonds of holy sisterhood...similar to that of those traveling pants, but this is a blog.  Much simpler and it truly does fit all of us :) 
Goals for the next four months.  Numero Uno get fit!! Fit and Fly!  Guuuuurl, look at that body!  It's the process of annoying each other via text message until we are skinny, hahaha!...but seriously.  Numero Dos, at least once a week blog...just to keep you readers happy, and if not for you, at least for our own sake!  Numero Tres - SAVE ALL THE MONEYS! We's be goin' to DisneyLand up in HERE!!...as in the end of the summer.
So sit back, relax, and enjoy the read...while we enjoy our summer

Muchos Besos
Kenzi, Shayli, and Chels
