      Grandparents

      In September, our monthly theme is GRANDPARENTS.

      Let’s play our monthly alphabet game.

      Since it might be harder to find words related to grandparents, let’s twist it a little and find NAMES of our grandparents, grand-aunts, grand-uncles, etc. Let’s make it interesting and stay with grand- something, ok? Of course, nobody would check on you.

      Let’s go!

                                        Although he is way back in time and is one of my 9th Gt Grandfathers, I can offer Oswald Van Keppel.

                                            I have a 1st cousin once removed with Q, if we can’t find grandparents. If there are no grandparents with Q is that the end of the game?

                                              It would be sad to end the game, so share your Q name and we’ll keep rolling!

                                                My paternal Grandaunt was called Queenie. Her birthname was Rene but she always got called Queenie. Maybe she was a bit precious, lol!
