When I lived in Isla, this spectacular display was right around the corner from mi casa.
I loved the celebratory feeling of this joyful Virgin
adorned with her festive colors in the bright, warm sunshine!
It made me smile every time I walked by! It includes all the festive colors of Mexico, green frog luck for health and happiness, and all the bling the holidays can bring!
and I can't resist sharing with you the photos of my next door neighbors as they came to my gate singing carols carrying the traditional decorated tree branch "baculos"
For more Virgin Goodness, come over here!
