Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Ours do things together too. We have all gone out together, they have gone out together by themselves and they went on vacation together.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Posted by Lanabean
My parents and DH's parents have a very nice relationship, and we all go to dinner together a few times a year, but that's it. My mom and his mom call to say hello every now and then/see what's new, but since the wedding, not as much. Everyone likes everyone--no issue there. Just wondering about everyone else! I've said it before, but I can't wait until we have a house (our townhouse isn't big enough to host a group) so WE can host some holidays and make it our parents and immediate family and all be together, instead of house hop.
That pretty much describes my family too. Although DH and I did host Chanukah this past year so that we could all be together for a holiday.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Yes...my IL's actually just invited all of us down to one of their 3 houses..this one is in Florida. We all went and had a fabulous time! They get along very well. Also...since I basically just have my Mom and Dad they are often invited along for holidays since DH's family is so much larger.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Yup...they go to dinner numerous times during the year, my mom has gone away to Florida with her and DH's aunt and they speak/e-mail weekly. I am very blessed

No, mine don't. They really don't have much in common and DH's parents are 10 years older then my parents. They get along just fine when we are all out together, but they don't talk on the phone or hang out, just at family parties.
Same with us. My parents and my ILs are sooo different

Our parents don't even have each other's phone numbers. They only speak to each other when they're all together, which is hardly ever.
how about this - they never even remember each other's names. They met at our e-party, and I think the only time they saw each other was at the wedding (and rehearsal dinner the night before...)

My parents and IL's are total opposites!!!!
If they did something together, I think that HeLL would freeze over

Yep. My inlaws and my parents get along well. We host New Years Day and we usually get together for birthdays and holidays as well.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
No because they're in another country which is a really good thing because they'd kill each other for sure. My FIL is a real peace of work

Nope, they don't do anything together. The only time they would see each other is at parties and such we have for our kids.....

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Nope..last time we got them together was to discuss finances for the wedding and my FIL told my parents he wouldn't pay for anything except the DJ. That was almost 2 years ago. It was awkward and we haven't brought them together since.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
They don't do anything together as they are into totally different things! There have been 4 occassions that our families have been together:
1-night we got engaged
2-rehearsal dinner
3-wedding
4-day after wedding
It is nice to see that some of your parents & inlaws get together!

No. My parents and my inlaws haven't seen each other since the wedding. That's going on 3 years this summer.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
Our parents usually get together a few times a year, nothing more. They always invite each other to bday dinners and other celebrations, however, until we have a big house to entertain in, I don't think we'll all get together often!

No, only when DH and I are involved. And to get them all together at once is no easy task.

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
They call each other and meet up in AC every now and than. They also meet up in Florida when they are vacationing there at the same time. We also spend holidays together...

Re: Do your parents and your laws do a lot of things together?
My parents and inlaws are close...my parents will have inlaws over and vice versa...If my parents are over visiting us and the baby I will call my inlaws and have them come over for coffee and cake...we are both very close with our parents and with each other's parents! Plus... both set of parents are very similiar and have alot in common~
I love it!!

We have the same situation. I like that our 'rents like each other and can do a few things together over the year.
