Day of the Dead is a Mexican Holiday celebrating the lives of those who past away, mostly family members and close friends. To celebarate their lives, alters are dedicated to the people who past away. On these alters family and friends place things the person likes, bright fun colors, the persons favorite food, and their picture(s), as seen in the picture above. Sugar skulls are also made and are decorated with bright colors to show their celebration of those who passed. Skeletons are a big thing shown on day of the dead, not to express fear like on our holiday Halloween, but a way to honor the spirits on this happy day. :)
