My cousin Carolyn and her husband Cameron and daughter Grace are visiting. Last night at dinner Cameron was able to straighten me out on the whole "removed" genealogy thing. Apparently, Carolyn (who is several years younger than me) is my mother’s first cousin. Carolyn is my first cousin once removed. Grace and I are second cousins(we are the children of first cousins). If Ben and I had a child s/he would be a second cousin once removed to Grace. Cool 🙂

Okay…here I am…and thank you for the schooling in the cousin thing..it’s always baffled me!
So glad to see you Templeton—or should I call you Jim?
I was surfing around the net and I came across—YOU! I can’t wait to meet you! Hopefully, it will work out for you and Ben to visit us soon…:)
Absolutely…and now I see a Vander Kooi on here…I gotta get in touch with Jeff soon as well! Ben send me that “wuss” thing!
