The Aunt/Ant issue has been ongoing in my household. I always thought Yankee's said Ant and Southerners said Aunt. In my case I was born in Minnesota and it is Ant. But in Texas and to my husband and his family it is Aunt. Luckily, my daughters say Ant, even though they were born in Texas (Hehe, that makes me laugh, makes me laugh, because the inlaws do not correct them).
About what to call the grandparents, I guess it is a Northern thing just to call them grandma K or grandma (Last name). Until I cam to Texas I didn't know there were other names, now I have heard them all.
