Happy 2013 everyone! I was fairly sick for most of the first day of 2013 but I was still able to capture an important picture to me.

I love the traditions and artistry behind the sugar skull. They are beautiful. For Christmas my brother found an incredible incense burner for me (pictured) it has three skulls and the incense goes inside the structure and the smoke billows out from the nose and ear area of each skull. I love it, easily my most used Christmas gift already. This photo was chosen because a bit of smoke can be seen being released from the yellow skull. 

The drawing is also from my brother. I asked him, in his wonderful artistic abilities to draw a sugar skull for me that I could get tattooed on my arm. When I went over to my parents house this evening this was given too me. I think it is pretty rad. 

Note: My picture editing program is currently on the fritz. Thus, this is a raw picture.
