Grandparents
A Kiss From Grandma
“My son, Conner, was just learning how to kiss… thus the open mouth. His great great Grandma Kiser just loved kissing babies. If it were on video, it should be in slow motion with soft music playing.”

Look Who’s Talking
“I found this photo while going through old albums for my grandmother’s viewing. The couple in the picture were friends of my grandparents. The woman made puppets and put on puppet shows for kids’ birthdays. According to one family member, “She wasn’t very good.” And apparently, she was a little too attached to those puppets.”

Granny’s Got A Gun
“In 2010, we sent you this spunky picture of our sweet Grandma Nadine (taken years earlier). We are saying goodbye to this beautiful woman on Tuesday, but are forever grateful to AFP for memorializing her spunky attitude on your board game. She got a kick out of being a part of the AFP family! Thanks for sharing our fun memories!”
We are sending our love to Lisa and to her legendary Grandma. Her spirit and spunk in this photo will live on forever.

Puppet Master
“This is a photo of my oldest son and my grandmother(his great-grandmother) at a Grandparents Dance while he was visiting her in Texas last summer. Apparently, the photographer felt as if this was the most natural pose for both of them.”

He’s Just Not That Into You
Larry wasn’t as enthused about his grandparent’s 50th anniversary. And yes, his real name is Larry.

Hooked On A Feeling
“These are some relatives somewhere on my father’s side of the family. My husband and I found this while sorting through tons of pictures from my grandparents’ house and thought it was hilarious, as did all the friends we shared it with.”

Or… there’s always a couch. And btw, for the small price of $8000, you can order one here. And it’s on sale. No joke.

BTA: Still Crazy After All These Years
“My Grandmother hired a professional photographer for my Grandfather’s 75th birthday party. Not only did we all have to wear black & white… but I received this CD of photos which included this awkward shot.”
Double Dutch
“On the eve before my grandparents 60th anniversary party this photo was passed around. In 1991 for their anniversary they went to Holland. There is so much going on in the picture that every time you look at it you see something new – and horribly awkward. Don’t miss out on the painted wooded shoes, the tangle of yarn and that white hat.”
