QOTD 1-23-2013! :-)
Good morning gals!! It is freeeeezing this morning!So my question this morning...
How are your future in-laws?? Mother, father, sister, brother, even grandparents? Also how is your fiance with your family??
I actually am very grateful. My future in laws are all pretty great. FH's mom is super sweet, his dad is quite the character, his younger brother is very much like him sweet and charming. His sister is OK shes not horrible but she can get under my skin with how needy/temper tantrum like she is if she doesnt get her way (mind you shes 21). As for grandparents I love his moms mom she reminds me of my nana (typical Italian woman) and the rest are all great too. He has a huge very close family which is pretty much opposite of mine.
As for him with my family he does the best he can they arent the easiest to get along with even for me! But my nana is pretty important and theg get along great. And most importantly my fur babies loveeee him
and there opinion is veryyy important!!Sorry for the long response! Thanks for reading look forward to hearing your girls answers

FH mom and sister dont like me (the feeling is mutual). His mom, sister and his x gfs all talk s*** about me. They live out of state so I dont have to deal with them. FH is not really close to them. They have seen our 19 month old twice and thats it. They are not part of her life or mine and thats just fine with me. She is not lacking any love. FH x step dad but who he spent the most amount of time with and is still very close to is a sweetheart. He is super nice and really cares about us. When FH tells him about issues with his mom he tells him as long as you are happy then they can go to hell lolMy family and extended family loves my FH and my parents treat him like their own son.

I have a love/hate relationship with FMIL, it is weird, but I guess it works. We talk on the phone around 3 times a week but sometimes I have to set her straight. She is one of those 60 year olds that still likes the go clubbing and will only date younger guys etc. I feel bad for her in a way, but she always put on this 'independent woman' front.I can't stand FH's borther but they aren't really close so I usually only have to deal with him on holidays, and that is if he shows up. He is a forever bachelor so a lot of the family responsibilities always fall on FH.
I LOVE FFIL and his girlfriend. We always have such a great time together and they are down to earth 'normal' people.
FH is very close with my family. I am one of 6 kids and he loves being part of a big close knit family. We hang out with them a lot.

Re: QOTD 1-23-2013! :-)
I have to say we are pretty lucky in this department. I get along well with his family and he gets along well with mine. Our families even get along well with each other, our mom's went dress shopping together! My mom treats FH like and son, and his parents treat me like a daughter. We get along with each others' siblings too. He might be a little closer with my sisters then I am with his brother's but I think that's because they are closer to our age and share more of the same hobbies as we do, where as his brothers and him are very close but they don't spend as much time together (not in a bad way at all though, just comparatively speaking).

Re: QOTD 1-23-2013! :-)
No drama with our families.I am close with 1 brother/sister-inlaw and his sister. I get along so well with her that she is a BM. I do get a long with his parents and 2 bothers, but we are not as close as I would like.
FH gets along so well with my family. Being from a family of girls, he definitely became the son my parents never had. He jokes around with my mom, sisters and niece. He watches sports with my dad and a few times they even went out for a few drinks/games.
Family is important to both of us and our families blend well together.

FMIL lives out of state, so we get along great:) In all seriousness, she's a very nice lady as is his stepdad.FFIL is very nice, and FBIL and I get along wonderfully.
FH gets along very well with my family. He's a huge hit.

FILs are wonderful and hilarious! They get along with my parents wonderfully. Sometimes I think my family likes FH more than they like me! he is def the adopted son my parents never had since they had 3 daughters. FH is an only child so no FSIL or FBIL which means less drama

FMIL & FFIL are really fantastic. FH grew up very differently than me, so his family is VERY different than what I was used to, but they are really loving towards me. They joke around with me all the time and say stuff that I think my mom would pass out if she heard lol. FSIL & 1 FBIL are great - they treat me like their sister. I still haven't met the other FBIL (we've been together 2.5 years) because FH doesn't speak to him. Other than him, everyone is great.My family loves FH, whic is always helpful.

My inlaws are good. We have some custom issues but thats about it. I had an issue with his sister when we got engaged. I think she was jealous that her baby brother was getting married before her. She said no when I asked her to be a bridesmaid... But now everything is good with us

FMIL & FFIL have both passed away. =(both of my FSIL are great we lived with one of them for years so we did get pretty close. FH BIL is amazing and we just click its actually very funny.
FH gets along get with my fam. Dad actually loves him (even though he wont say it).,
I am very lucky, I just wish I got a chance to meet my MIL, but I know my FIL has told her all about me.

I get along very well with FFIL and FMIL. Since I've known FH for 16 years they are already like my family. I get along well with all of his siblings but am much closer to 2 out of 4 of them. His sister is a bit of an odd ball but she's nice so we're fine. They all live in different states so we never see them or any of his nieces and nephews which sucks.

I'm the daughter my FIL never had. I do Yoga every week with FFIL & speak to FMIL everyday! They are the best! Love my one FBIL, hate the other (he's 20 & a trouble maker).My family lives out of state, but they love FH! We see them often! Our families, especially moms, get along so well. We've even all gone on vacation together!
