All Souls' Day/ Dia de los Muertos

 November 2nd is  All Souls' Day ~
 and
Dia de los Muertos
a day for prayers and remembrance of loved ones and all the departed. I enjoy the
Mexican tradition of not remembering them in death but with lessons learned, happy times, and life lived. Many celebrate with candles, lots of candles,  special foods, ofrendas, flowers...especially marigolds, catrinas, dancing skeletons, and one of my favorites...Sugar Skulls. This time next year I hope to be down in Mexico to celebrate there in person. For now I celebrate here and virtually with my dear friends in Mexico. I hope your day is sweet!
