El Dia De Los Muertos

We saw the El Dia De Los Muertos celebration and parade today in the South Valley, and it was a lot of fun.

This is my favorite float. You can't see it here, and I didn't get another shot, but the figure is two-sided with a sad face on the other side. She rotated with the movement of the wagon. It's just beautiful!


Before the parade, the boys discovered a playground toy that was the most fun -- especially for Andy who loves to spin! It's a seat on a pole that rotates as you shift your weight. Both boys enjoyed it, but Andy was picking up g-force at his speed!


Here's Dan on it, too. You'll notice he wore his very best clothes to honor the dead....
