Halloween Excitement!

So Halloween is almost here and this year I decided to go with a more friendly costume, since the last two years my Costumes have been kind of scary lol 
Last year, I went Trick-or-Treating with my girlfriends and her little kids but I think my Costume made cry to more than one kid, this is why i am choosing to be a clown for this year.
I already got my costume, still need to make a lot of changes to it and add colorful things to it.
I think it will come out pretty cute.
I even found this read shoes at the Thrift Store, which I found even funnier.
I bought red bands to make my own suspenders for my costumes and couldn't find BIG bright colored pants, but will go with the black ones I found and just add some colorful patches. 
I found a read nose at the Dollar Store but did not convince me. My friends says she has one that has even the wholes so if she lets me use it, then I got all I needed!
Very excited for this Halloween, we are all going to Church and then to some "Rich Houses" where they give good candies. lol 
So I will be keeping you all posted with this Halloween Excitement Blog.
Thank you all for reading ! Don't forget to leave a comment, I love them all! 


This was me, two years ago:
[Regan, from The Exorcist]

This is me last year, I was a zombie. lol 


This year I have decided to dress up as a Clown,
just so that the little kids don't get scared at me,
but I think some will since Clowns are not 
cute at all. lol oh, well!


Hope you all have a great Halloween, I will be posting more pictures and maybe a tutorial on how I did my costume and make up for that day! 

Love you all!

Dia de Muertos [Day of the Dead]

catrina

A tradition my grandparents and parents have left me thruout the years.
My grandpa died on november 2000. This year I will be putting up an ofrenda or and offering for his soul.
Dia de muertos es una tradicion que mis abuelos y padres me han dejado atravez de los anios, este anio le hare una ofrenda a mi abuelo Silverio que ya van para mas de 8 anios que fallecio R.I.P "abue".Lo amamos mucho y extraniamos ...



En este mundo matraca

De morir nadie se escapa.

Muere el buey, muere la vaca,

Y hasta la mujer más guapa tiene que estirar la pata.

Viene la muerte luciendo

mil llamativos colores

ven, dame un beso, pelona

que ando huérfano de amores.

Se va la muerte cantando

por entre la nopalera,

¿En que quedamos, pelona,

me llevas o no me llevas?...

Dia de los muertos para mi significa mas bien que celebrarle ala muerte, celebrale a la vida, por todos los logros y experiencias que nos deja.

Here is a little video on how to paint your face for Halloween on Halloween, hope you enjoy!
