This weekend was full of many fun activities. Including a Halloween party in Central Park and a lunch at Jekyll and Hyde - Muahahahahaha!!! Well not really! We tried to eat at Jekyll and Hyde but we only got a few steps past the entrance.In order for you to go into the restaurant you must pass a "test" - it consist of you going into a sort of elevator with all the lights off and then a projection of the tales of the crypt guy comes out and the ceiling starts coming down as if to squish you. Miguelito got so scared and started to cry that he was afraid of mummy's or something scarier coming out to get him while we ate. You will see how scared he looks by the pictures below. It was kind of funny : D I know I know how mean!
Migueltio and Humbe got to hang out with Optimus Prime in Central Park : D

Dia De Los Muertos
In Mexico we celebrate Dia De Los Muertos - Day Of The Dead. On this day we put out offerings for our loved ones who have passed away. At exactly 12:00pm we put together our offering which consist of some of our loved ones favorite things to eat when they were alive. This is the second year that we put an offering for my Papa Betito and this is the first year ever to put an offering for my beloved father in law Albertito who Miguelto nor I ever got a chance to meet. We also put for my aunt- my papi's beloved sister, an uncle and my papi's second mami. It was very sad and heartbreaking as we put up our altar with all of us crying and remembering our family and how much we loved and missed them. But as we watch the candles flicker we love to think that they are here with us, enjoying their offerings and knowing that they are in our hearts and minds always.
Awwww Miguelito just makes any bad day better with his smiles! Even with "scared" written all over his face it still brings me such sunshine! :) His costume is SO adorable! :) I love his smile with his candies!
