Perhaps the greatest social service that can be rendered to anybody, to this country, and to mankind
is to bring up a family.
-George Bernard Shaw-

Family 

 
Welcome to the Crumly / Fontanez family experiment!

We are a blended family, and after thirteen years of trial, it seems to be working.  Ron and I married half way through our child raising years.  Now that is a leap of faith.  From that first day of marriage until now, we have been supporting one or more of our kids in college.  That seemed to be getting too easy, so in the summer of '04, I decided to go back for my master's, too.  This summer will be the final graduation, and we are giddy with all the possibilities of our new found income (just in time for the retirement home).

Together, we share 5 children, 3 children-in-law (is that a word?, 7 grandbabies, and two cats.  Christmas is lively; birthdays are monthly, and we count our blessings daily.
