Kindred – WW & You Capture

December 1, 2010 by Elaine

kin-dred
–noun
1.
a person’s relatives collectively; kinfolk; kin.
2.
a group of persons related to another; family, tribe, or race.
3.
relationship by birth or descent, or sometimes by marriage; kinship.
4.
natural relationship; affinity.

I kinda wanted to name this post “Kid”-dred (that’s hard to say!) since it’s a post with pics of my kids playing in the leaves while at my MIL’s house for the Thanksgiving holiday.

She purposely raked these leaves so that her grandchildren could play in them.

She is awesome like that. And she is my kids “kindred”. And mine too.

Hey, the definition says “by marriage”…

Thanks “Mother Bear” – the kids had a blast! xo


p.s. If you want to see more “kindred-ness” and haven’t taken a peak yet, please head over to my friend Christina’s blog, Momology, to see our recent family photo shoot with her. She did a wonderful job capturing the essence of our family…

    That is so fun! I love leaf piles. And what a great grandma to rake the leaves just for the kiddos. She knows. 🙂

    Great inlaws are fantastic. And so are cute kiddos! Both at once is an overdose of blessings!

    So cute. I love the one of him buried in the leaves. And what a great MIL to think of letting them do that. I bet it burned off a ton of energy.

    That is so cute! I didn’t get any leaf pictures this year. Hmph! There’s always next year I suppose. :o)

    What a nice grandma!

    My kids were putting the leaves at the bottom of the slide and going down it and crashing into them.

    Great leaf photos, I love the blurry movement of them, and especially like the last three.
