After Miss D’osay’s endearing post about her lovely relationship with her future in-laws, I was inspired to write about Mr. G’s relationship with my family. Anyone who has followed my posts knows that I have had a tough time getting to know my future in-laws. Exhibits A and B. I know I have done my fair share of bellyaching about my in-law situation. But, in my defense, I blame my bitterness on the fact that Mr. G hasn’t had any negative experiences in his quest to become an honorary member of my family.
Mr. G is like my parents’ fourth child. He and my Mom exchange text messages. He and my Dad go to the driving range together. He is invited to every family gathering and has even gone on a few family vacations with us. I love that Mr. G has meshed so well with my family. It just makes everything better. So even if my relationship with Mr. G’s family is a work in progress, we are lucky that life with my family has been a different story.
Oh, and I can’t say that I wasn’t thrilled when Mr. G made my brothers Co-Best Men in our wedding. My brothers mean the world to me, and it will bring me great joy to have them stand up for us in June!

Is your fiance part of your family’s entourage? Or have they experienced obstacles in getting to know one another?

The family dynamic can be crazy, right? But it’s great when some members get along with our honey. 🙂

That is so awesome that Mr. G asked your brothers to not only be groomsmen but to be co-best men! I asked my FH’s sister to be a bridesmaid.
FH is definitely part of the family entourage and I am part of his family’s entourage. I couldn’t be more blessed with our situation!

Luckily… aside from my father, my family has accepted FH with open arms… and even more luckily (does that make sense), i’m getting a great set of in-laws! i couldn’t ask for more! 🙂

That’s awesome that they get along! My family usually tolerates who-ever I am dating, but they are perfectionists. Don’t want their little girl to get hurt, so they’re looking for Mr. Perfect. And if we lived together outside of marriage, I think they’d shoot me.

Well, your brothers are incredibly cute. That’s all.
😀 BUT my fiance is having all three of my brothers stand up for him, which makes me so happy. If he wasn’t going to though, I would have asked them to be bridesmen.
