Beaded Purses 19

When you think about birthday parties, memories of cake with ice cream come to mind, along with pointed hats and little .....
My girl friend and I love to go to Las Vegas together. We try to make the trip at least once a year. We both enjoy playing slot machines and we also enjoy going to a show or two. We go shopping and we bring clothes along so we can dress up in the evenings and stay out late. We laugh at the amount of luggage that we bring along for the four days that we stay. We have started packing together so that we do not have quite as much to carry. Last time we went we each had packed two beaded purses to take along. We discussed if we needed to take all four beaded purses and we decided that we could leave two back and just borrow each others. We also left behind a couple of pairs of shoes, one hair dryer and one curling iron. My friend also insisted that the hotel had an iron so that I did not have to take my travel iron with me.

It was nice traveling lighter and we did have a hair dryer in the room so we could have left the second one behind also. We arrived early in the day so our hotel room was not ready. We checked our bags and went shopping. A small shop close to the hotel had many accessories. They had beaded purses that were beautifully done and were on sale. We each found a very unique purse and purchased it. We then went to one of our favorite stores that we visit each time we vacation to Las Vegas. At this store we each found an outfit that was on sale. They were great for evening wear so we bought them to wear to one of the shows that we had tickets for. My outfit has beautiful beading on the top. The sales clerk showed me two beaded purses that had the same patterns on them. I explained that I had just purchased a purse. This clerk remembered us from other trips and knew that we purchased many things in the past. She told me that she would give me the smaller of the beaded purses for being a repeat customer. My girlfriend also found a pair of shoes to buy that was on sale along with a scarf that complimented her outfit.

We laughed as we went back to the hotel to check into our room. We had only been in Las Vegas for a couple of hours and we had already purchased the things that we had left behind at home. We ended up making other purchases during our stay so we needed to purchase another piece of luggage to get everything home. We did have fun getting dressed up and carrying our new beaded purses. We have decided that in the future we will take even less and will plan on buying new clothes to wear while we are there.
