My photos

We took them all to the lovely gardens of a stately home and they had a great time together. I love the feel of a little hand in mine and my youngest grandchild, Patrick, is a bit too old at 13 so it is great to have another generation now!

If we thought about for much longer we would all be cousins LOL.
Fab photo's greatnan lovely little girls what joy.

Yeah. Every time I work it out, or someone explains it, I think I understand, and then my brain says..... eh? ....so, if....? .....are you sure that's right?



chimps and gorillas are our cousins too. Why worry over details?

I think they're second cousins she says, stirring madly

I think "the girls" are first cousins, once removed, if their parents are cousins. Their children are second cousins.

So my cousins' children are my first cousins once removed, and my grandson's second cousins.

I think.....

In short.... yes, they are cousins of some sort or another!!!!!

Thanks for posting the photo's Greatnan, I do enjoy looking at other people's photographs - and you've got some pretty special ones.

They are much better on my Facebook page. I think this site still has some way to go technically, as whenever I posted photos on ex-pat forums they could be enlarged by clicking on them. I tried to change the size, but it didn't seem to work.
My new grand-daughter-in-law is the mother of the two little girls with white blonde hair. She is 24 and still has very blonde hair quite naturally which is unusual for anyone outside Scandanavia. My eldest grand-daughter is the mother of the other two - she will be the next to get married. The girls have not seen much of each other as one pair live in Kent and one in Yorkshire, but they got on famously. Are they second cousins as their parents are cousins?

greatnan what gorgeous photos.

Lovely photos, just a pity we can`t enlarge them to see their little faces better.

Beautiful photos greatnan and what a lovely place to live.
Cheers

Lovely photos, Greatnan! I particularly liked the one with two little ones on the sofa!

Thank you, when, it took me some time to work out how to post it as it was not taken with my own camera but I got instructions from their grandmother (it still feels odd to think of my little girl as a nana herself even though she will be 50 next year!)

Greatnan your great-grandaughters are just beautiful. What fabulous photos, especially the one with you all together.
