Violet Beauregard


Elise on Halloween...and a letter from her mother.

So this morning was Elise’s Halloween parade at school.

"I was really hoping she wouldn’t want to be a princess this year…I have been trying very hard to steer her away from such foof.

Much to my joy, she decided that she wanted to be Violet Beauregard from the new version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Theeennn, I realized that I would have to make the costume. No problem. Only took me ‘till 8:15 this morning.



Elise had a rough morning because she didn’t want to walk in the school parade. When we got to her classroom, she had a total meltdown, rolling on the floor, most of her blue face rubbed off on the carpet, etc. She refused to wear her blueberry suit. I said, “No problem, Dear, whatever makes you comfortable! “ smile, smile…

I went to the gym to wait for the parade, mildly fuming.



One of her teachers was able to convince her to dress up and helped Elise suit up.

Too bad for the teacher she didn’t quite know how the homemade contraption was supposed to look. Elise was a bit…off-center.

Not to mention her wig was itching, so she pushed it halfway back on her head.

It must have been itching her nose as well, since she made scrunch-nosed faces throughout the parade.



Back in her classroom it was time for a group photo.

Elise was standing up front and was blocking some of the other children. Her teacher asked her to sit down, and she fell/rolled!

Everyone laughed (including me…it was just so funny!) and she hid her head like a turtle. After some coaxing and coaching from her teacher, all was well.



Enjoy the photos. She was so cute, as was Miles, and I win for “worst (and I think “only”) homemade costume of the year”!



Hopefully tonight’s Trick-or-Treat performance will go better.

Hello,

I'm just browsing sites for the kids of Haiti.

I'm doing this for a non-profit group that gives their time to
creating oppurtunities for the kids in haiti. If anyone here wants to give money then do so here:

They provide kids in Haiti a positive outlook through education.

Please check them out, they're real.

Anything would be appreciated

[url=http://www.adidasforum.com/adidas-retro-kicks-come-with-a-retro-game/]Adidas Forum[/url]
Now here is a shoe-in for the list of the year's best gaming-related clothing : Adidas has brought back its ZX 5 hundred running shoe, and, since it originally comes from the '80s, the gaming electrified design and coloring is a no-brainer ... Right? The kicks won't be the coolest part of the deal, either ; they come packaged with a combination bracelet/USB flashdrive containing ZX Runner, a computer game based primarily on ... The shoe itself.

GameCulture writes that the game stars a personality named'DJ Zed' who, according to Adidas, has 5 minutes to'run, moon-walk, climb walls, avoid some dodgy-looking bullies, collect power-ups, and pull off mad rooftop-to-rooftop stunts' to get on-stage before his set starts. It's fittingly retro -- see for yourself in the video we've included after the breakdance.

The organization delivers a single specific [url=http://muachungdeal.com/thoi-trang.html]gia re hang ngay[/url] for every day in each and each and every of the markets it serves. The Groupon performs as an assurance agreement using ThePoint's program: if a specific amount of people sign up for the supply, then the offer you turns into presented to all if the predetermined bare bare minimum is not satisfied, no one will get the offer that working day. This decreases risk for shops, who can deal with the coupon codes as volume reductions as effectively as income advertising and marketing instruments. Groupon can make income by trying to keep roughly fifty p.c the cash the client pays for the coupon.

For instance, an $eighty massage could be bought by the customer for $forty by way of Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would break up the $forty. That is, the retailer offers a massage valued at $eighty and receives approximately $twenty from Groupon for it (beneath a fifty%/fifty% break up). Or, if $240 well worth of residence portray companies is bought by the consumer for $fifty by means of Groupon, then the group will get $twenty five and Groupon retains $25. The client will get the massage, or the home portray help, in these examples, from the retailer for which they to begin with compensated $forty (or $fifty) to Groupon. There are specified organizations to which Groupon originally did not source its firms, which includes capturing ranges and strip clubs however, having pictures ranges have been featured on Groupon.

As opposed to categorised marketing, the service provider does not invest any upfront cost to just take component: Groupon collects personal data from ready customers and then contacts only these shoppers, mostly by working day-to-day electronic mail, who could probably probably be intrigued in a distinct answer or assistance.

Groupon employs a huge amount of copywriters who draft descriptions for the bargains highlighted by e mail and on the site. Groupon's marketing text for the 'deals' has been observed as a contributing situation to the acceptance of the net website, that includes a unique blend of complete reality-examining and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's industry spot getting primarily composed of feminine purchasers, the discount rates are typically targeted on the total wellness, wellness and health and fitness and magnificence marketplaces.

There are prospective difficulties with the business style. For instance, a effective provide could rapidly swamp a small firm with as well many clients, jeopardizing a opportunity that buyers will be dissatisfied, or that there won't be enough merchandise to satisfy up with the want. Hole, a enormous apparel retailer, was able to handle 445,000 low cost coupon codes in a countrywide provide (although it expert server difficulties at one position), but a smaller sized sized company could change out to be all of a sudden flooded with customers. One espresso store in Portland, Oregon struggled with an improve in customers for 3 months, when it acquired near to 1,000 Groupons on the one functioning day it was provided, in accordance to one report. In response to related issues, Groupon officers state that 'deal' subscriptions need to have to be capped in advance to a sensible amount.

Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images.
Maybe you could space it out better?|
