Dia De Los Muertos or Day of the Dead

today is the first Day of the holiday, Dia De Los Muertos, so i have been thinking a lot about relatives and others that have passed on.
i really love the whole concept of the Day of the Dead Holiday, as i think americans are really uptight about how they deal with death in general.

i got to participate in the Viva La Vida Fest that was held at the Mexicarte Museum last weekend. it was really festive, fun and amazing. i love all the costumes and art and the ofrendas that were set up. it's a meaningful and colorful celebration.
there are more pictures of the event here

SweetWolf was proud to be a vendor at the event, and i hope to be able to participate again next year. it was really a lot of fun!
