The Crockfords invite you to share our Italian Adventure! Tuesday, July 22, 2008. There has been a heat wave on in NY, a hurricane somewhere off in the Atlantic and all around perfect weather for late afternoons spent at the beach. As soon as the kids get home from camp, we hit the beach for our merenda and cool dip in the ocean. Sarah and Anna have always been quite good swimmers (thank you San Diego) and now surf the waves like dolphins, or as Anna says, like penquins - no arms. It is not surprising t...

The Crockfords invite you to share our Italian Adventure! Wednesday, June 03, 2009. Birthday Girl, Wildflowers and a new Baby.
