How in the hell are we halfway through November already?
Well, whatever. We had a small dinner party-type gathering last weekend. It featured a post-Actual Dia de los Muertos/pre-Tucson All Souls Procession theme mainly because I have wanted for about three years to try my hand at making sugar skulls and those colorful tissue paper banners.

| Calaveras for Aunt Jean, Nana DeJongh, and Grandpa Noyes. |
But first we did Halloween.
 |
| This is Mandia as a tranvestite robot on Halloween. |
 |
This is me and Mandia on the porch drinking wine and passing out
candy and glowsticks which were VERY popular. |
 |
| This is Raphael, Chris, Kim, Steve, and Mandia still handing out candy several hours later. |
 |
| These are the Jack o' lanterns - mine, Chris' and Kim's, and Raphael's. |
 |
| The altar. |
 |
| Dinner party decorations. |
 |
| Papel picado - yes, I made them. It was a lot of picado. |
 |
| Playing a risque card game. No one's mom would approve. |
 |
| Milagro. |
