My in-laws...again

I know I bragged about them back in January (see blog here) but MAN do I love them. I'm so fortunate!

My mother-in-law (MIL) and I have been trying to go shopping together for about two weeks and finally were able to go yesterday. We went up to Great Lakes Crossing Outlet Mall and it was such a great time. We got a lot of great deals, I was able to finish off the boys' easter outfits and we got our eyebrows threaded. OUCH!! My skin is still sore! But we had a great time together. We talked about some family friends who don't have good relationships with their daughter-in-laws. I know that I'm lucky to be able to talk openly with my MIL and that she and I can confide in each other.

While we shopped, my father-in-law (FIL) took care of the boys. He plays with them, entertains them, feds them, changes diapers and yesterday, even took them for a walk to the grocery store to get cookies. He's such a great "Papa". Even my friends who know him say so. Everyone wants to know if my inlaws will take their children for a weekend. If my inlaws started charging, they could make a living off just having grandkids on the weekends!

My in-laws have accepted me as their own and I am so fortunate to be accepted and loved so much.

Can I borrow your MIL just for a day or two? :) You are blessed to have such great ILs. I am sure you hear that a lot! Heck, I am pretty sure I have told you that on more than one occasion!
