Wedding Planning Hiccups, Pursuing Higher Education and Cozy Home Fall Tips (WWYBD?!)

Ep 245: In the catch up segment, Allison and Ceara share the highlights of their week for the first 20 minutes of the episode. Ceara went to Colombia for a Mizzou football game and is excited about getting her front porch redone. Allison had a lot of success finding items for her fall wardrobe at a vintage clothing market. We both share progress updates of our "curriculum" studies (tune into last week’s episode).
