2007 Oyster Festival

On Saturday Oct. 6th, we went to the Oyster Festival in Shelton with the Neymans. It poured the entire day, but we had a good time. Strangely, none of us ate any oysters. The kids had their faces painted, we watched an Oyster Shucking Contest (I think the winner shucked 20 oysters in about one minute) and mostly just tried to stay dry. The day ended with a (wet) trip to the pumpkin patch, then long soaks in the Neymans hot tub.


These guys were amazing! Afterwards, they hand out raw oysters to the crowd. We passed.


(Kaylie & Josh chose not to have their faces painted. I'm pretty sure it was the clown at the face painting station that scared them off.)




Josh wasn't sure what to make of the oyster shucking...

Kaylie's first bus ride ever - it was by far her favorite part of the day.
Sistahs!
