calacas y más calacas ~ skeletons galore

Día de los Muertos is just around the corner and I couldn't be more excited!  Children are dressing up for their school festivals, families are making trips to cemeteries to pray for their dearly departed and household altars are being set up to welcome special visitors:  the spirits of the loved ones we've lost through the years. My parents never taught me to celebrate this particular holiday, but my fascination with the tradition has grown over time and now I'm ecstatic to participate in all the hooplah =)  Wanna know more?  ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_dead
