It depends. If you can trade their proper names for their titles in the sentence, then you should probably capitalize them. For example: "Hal and Ethel visited us. " "Grandpa and Grandma visited us." But you probably wouldn't say, "They went to see their Hal and Ethel." Instead, you'd say, "They went to see their grandpa and grandma." So you wouldn't capitalize in that case.

Do you capitalize Grandma and Grandpa?

Yes, they should be capitalized because you're using the words in place of their names. You WOULD NOT capitalize if you said "My mom, my dad, my grandma, and I are going to Florida." You can't use "me" because you need a subject pronoun, "I." "Me" is an object pronoun. Give it to me. Show it to me. *** Yes, when you are using it as a name. Here are a couple of sentences in which you would capitalize the word: "I wanted to go out and play, but Grandma wanted me to stay in and bake cookies." "My favorite relative is Grandma Jones." Here are a couple of sentences in which you would not capitalize the word: "I haven't seen my grandma since my last birthday." "Of all the grandmas in the world, my grandma is the best."
