All Saints Day

* These Photos are really NO GOOD! I really needed a tripod~ I will go back next year and get MUCH better photos. But so you all can see a little picture of the tradition here I am posting my blurry photos!

I have heard a few different variations on the story of what All Saints day is~ so I am not even going to try and explain it, because I will get some part of it wrong. What I will say is that it is a Hungarian (and other parts of Europe)  Holiday where they place wreaths and candles on the graves of there loved ones. Look up the holiday and learn more about it.

 Oops left the shutter open WAY too long! Got tired of waiting and walked away! 
Gunner thought this was the coolest photo ever~ "Mom look at all the lasers!"
