Twin Fishermen (and women)

One of my favorite family traditions is our annual musseling party. Each year friends and family join us to harvest mussels and steam them on the beach for a delicious winter feast. It's a long standing custom from my dad's family that he remembers enjoying as a boy.

I was happy that Ryan and Lucie could join us this year. We bundled them up in more layers than they've ever experienced before, and had a great afternoon at the beach with only a few rainshowers (shown by the photo). As my dad said, Lucie and Ryan's great-grandfather was smiling down on them during their first (of many to come) musseling parties.
