What a difference a purse makes

Hoping that I don't sound shallow here, but it really is amazing. I've been sporting the same purse for two years now (a cute little bugger that Steve gave to me for Christmas) and was using it all the time simply because that was my purse. I was having a hard time getting all the essentials into it lately. You know, wallet, keys, phone, camera, sunglasses; it was overflowing. So about a month ago I was walking in Target (of all places) and -snap- the strap gave way. I went over to Mari's house where she tied the strap back on and wala, it became a clutch for another three weeks. Finally with a little extra cash I hopped on over to Target and found a beauty on clearance. I've used it for a couple days now and can't believe how nice it is. All the space, wider straps, stylish design...it's a good thing. If you're stuck on Christmas ideas for a female, I would suggest a purse! I just remembered that is what Isabel and Katie asked Santa for Christmas this year- too funny. I've heard a woman could never have too many purses!

Enough of that- little side note: we celebrated my sister Celia's 16th birthday last night at the Spaghetti Factory. I have to share a picture of this cute thing:

Happy Saturday!
