I can hardly believe I've missed so much goodness here. <br />Mrs. Skeleton and her baby crazy skeletons look terrific on that wonderful stripped background. <br />Hope your cold is much better now. sheila 77https://www.blogger.com/profile/00698767195924308373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-14740970912791798632016-11-01T08:14:05.430-04:002016-11-01T08:14:05.430-04:00Our cemeteries are nothing like that either.

I do like the color and energy and presence of honoring the dead on this day and I really enjoyed your page.<br /><br />I hope by now the colds are better, your husband didn't catch it and won't have anything to further delay the surgery. It sounds like this might be a bit of a stressful week for you and I hope everything is a piece of cake. <br /><br />Thanks for your visits and wonderful comments. I think our color will disappear shortly here -- wind and rain is due!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-35629470390460047812016-10-31T14:03:59.509-04:002016-10-31T14:03:59.509-04:00Fascinating post and lovely photos Erika. The colo...Fascinating post and lovely photos Erika. The colours and flowers etc certainly cheer up what would probably otherwise just be a cold and grey place. I didn't understand these celebrations until recently when it was mentioned in a Michael deMeng book I was reading about assemblage art. You've certainly captured the atmosphere of the celebration on your journal page - love the colours and images.<br />I hope you are over the worst of your cold - just what you didn't need at this point :( and are ok...

Beautiful pics!<br />My best friend here visited the whole week graves from relatives or friends and she is still busy since she just have to bring the fresh flowers on Tuesday to the special graves- since here is always the possibility of frost these days.. oh my gosh - I can't believe that someone makes such a big thing about this... but so she is ... she is in a really All Saints flow every year. I don't visit any graves - I like to visit graveyards - but not at this time of the year.<br />Hope you feel better soon and finger crossed for your hubby... I can imagine how excited he is again!<br />Happy new week ahead Erika and may it bring good news for you!<br />oxo Susifroebelsternchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06501600240752195171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-19654889142782972662016-10-30T12:22:27.749-04:002016-10-30T12:22:27.749-04:00This is lovely, and you used some of the tradition...This is lovely, and you used some of the traditional symbols of the event, too. I had a tip-in swap back in 2004, and added my entry to an altered book. You were on the right track because the celebration includes tables set up with candles, flowers, skulls, etc. to honor their dead loved ones.<br /><br />Here is a post about a book I created on Mexico, which includes my Dia de Muertos tip-in at the end of the post:<br />http://alteredbooklover.blogspot.com/2010/10/inspiration-avenue-challenge-mexico.html<br /><br />Enjoy the day whichever one it is. I've always thought it was Nov. 2, but who cares, if you want to celebrate it for three days, that's fun, too.<br /><br />Have a fantastic day, rest, get to feeling better, and don't allow your stress to show around your hubby. He has enough of it for both of you!Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.com
