Why Hello… Budgets, Birds, and Bieber
With her head still spinning from all of the excellent wedding preparation advice shared by Suzanne and Katy in last week’s episode, Michelle takes a short break from the planning to discuss a range of topics with Suzanne here today. They begin by sharing their COVID vaccination side effects and the confusion inherent in differing pandemic protocols. Michelle then offers details of her trip to Houston and Galveston for wedding planning, the wedding location itself, and the budget experiment in which she and Robb have engaged. Suzanne draws their conversation to a close with her story about going to a Rainforest Café, and her very special surprise gift for Jeff. While budgets, birds, and Bieber may seem to be unrelated topics, our hosts bring the common themes of friendship, humor, and the enjoyment of life to them all here today.
