Who LOVES their In-Laws?!?!

My in-laws have passed on now, but they were the GREATEST!!

My MIL was not a very "affectionate" person (in a demonstrative way) but she was a sweetheart..

And my FIL - I positively ADORED him.. He was the funniest, sweetest, most generous man you could ever hope to meet..
 
I really love my in-laws as well :D . I am very close with MIL and we do things together all the time. She had 4 boys and no girls so she likes doing the girly stuff now. My own mother and I get along okay but aren't terribly close. She is very jealous of MIL so sadly I have to keep them both seperate.

We always take MIL with us when we travel! She's a great help with ds and enjoys doing whatever we have planned without complaining. Now my mom wants to go on vacation with us just because we take MIL :rolleyes: . That would be a nightmare trip :scared1: ! So far I have been able to avoid the issue but one of these days it is going to cause a rift, I can see it coming.
 
My in-laws were great people too. My MIL was also not a huggy, kissy demonstartive type, but she would do anything for anyone and had a most generous spirit and a strong will to get things done.

MY FIL and I loved each other from day one. He was a special, special man, and we had a special relationship. He told me I was his "favorite" DIL (of course, I was also his only one!). When I would remind him that I was his only DIL, he'd tell me that even if he had had others, I would still be his favorite.

They are both gone now, and there are days when I still don't want to believe it.

This time of year(moving toward St.Patrick's Day) is especially difficult because they were Irish in every way, and these upcoming day were the "High Holy Days" for them.;)
 

DH feels that way about my parents. We have gone a few family vacations with all of us, but there have been times(including coming up in July) when it has just been the 4 of us and my mother too. We have even shared a room with her(the All Stars at that) and had no problem.
We bought a house 1/2 mile around the corner from my parents and when DH tells people that he gets a lot of "are you nuts?" looks, LOL! But my parents are really good to us so no, we arent nuts. ;)
 
I spend lots more time with my MIL than with my mom. And that's OK. Marge (or Nana as we often call her) is a wonderful lady. Since my FIL passed away nearly a decade ago, we've invited Marge along on all of our family vacations, mostly to WDW. She loves our children dearly and seems to think that I'm OK too. At holidays, she often stays at our house while working at the flower shop where DW Sue is employed.

I love her dearly and am glad to have her in my life.
 
My In-Laws are the greatest...

I think they are loving, caring, and never say no individuals!
 
I adore mine. I have from the day I met them, but we went through something together recently that really drove home how much I love them and how much they are my family too. Sometimes, tragedy can really bring people together.
 
Another set of great in-laws here! They are really special people who I love dearly!

My husband can't say the same of his in-law though!

I'm definitely closer to my MIL than my mother, and MIL is closer to me than she is her only daughter (5 boys, 1 girl).
 
I love (and also really, really like and enjoy) my in-laws!
They have been loving and supportive toward me since the first time I met them. MIL and FIL treat me as the daughter they never had, and they love our children with all their hearts. They try SOOO hard to not "interfere" but on the rare occasion that they do get a bit pushy with the parenting advice I try to remember that these are the people who raised my beloved, splendid DH so they must know what they're talking about! :)
 
I love them,they are my ex-inlaws but i still love them and they love me.
 
I love all of my Inlaws. :) MIL is the happiest person I know. I don't think I have EVER seen her mad or upset. SIL and FutureBIL are great. :) They actually just asked me to be in their wedding this August (DH and DD are both in it also.) BIL is a really sweet guy. And all of the extended family on MIL's side are really close. We all get along great. They are very accepting. :)

I can take my FIL in small doses. He really is not around much (he works all the time) so that probably helps the relationship. ;) But he is nice to me and that is what matters. :)
 
I LOVE them! My MIL and FIL are so wonderful! And my SIL is so great- she's the younger sibling I never had growing up! I was the oldest of 3, so it's especially nice finally having a younger sister. Plus, my MIL and FIL get along really well with my parents, and they're great friends now.
 
Love my in-laws to death. Started dating my husband when I was 16 and from the first day I met my MIL and FIL, they insisted I call them Mom and Dad. This was fine with my parents because they loved my husband (boyfriend then) and in-laws as well. My husband also called my parents Mom and Dad. They are beautiful people inside and out. When my Mom got cancer and my parents moved in with husband, the kids and I until she passed away(they lived about 125 miles away), my in-laws were there for all of us everyday....would cook and bring food over, run for some Clyde's lemon ice for my Mom, take the kids out..they were wonderful. My in-laws invite my Dad now to every holiday or family outing. I know this might sound weird to some people, but they are just GREAT and WONDERFUL people, sure am glad they are MY IN-LAWS!!!!!
 
My MIL is AWESOME!!! She's extremely easy to talk to and takes up for me ;) FIL on the other hand...I love him...but I don't always like him. He's a lot like my dad so everything that I battle with my dad about...also battle with him about it. :rolleyes:
