For two summers in a row, my parents have been kind enough to let Annabelle and me come visit for several weeks while Michael studied for the bar exams. That should not be a surprise to hear that a person's parents let them crash at home for 3 weeks. But, it might be uncommon to hear that I've also stayed with my in-laws this summer and last while Michael studied. Many people would not even dream of spending time with their in-laws, especially if your spouse wasn't even going to be there with you. Such is definitely not the case in my life.
After spending a week and a half with my in-laws, I feel it would be an injustice to them if I were to not write about what great people they are. I got pretty fortunate when I married Michael. Not only did I get a great husband, I also got a good set of in-laws. Robert and Cynthia are very supportive of me and have made me feel a part of their family.
Having good in-laws is not something you can expect to get when you get married. It's not everyday that you find a couple who like each other's parents. I think my parents are pretty cool and I am glad that they have a good relationship with Michael. I also enjoy spending time with Michael's parents and am glad that we get along well.

Lindsey, we really do love having you and Annabelle for visits, and I'm not just saying that. We are very fortunate to have such a smart, interesting and nice daughter in law. You can come back anytime. I just don't know about playing Settlers every time with you. It's hard to take being defeated so soundly for five or six times in a row!
Love, Robert
Ditto that. We enjoy spending time with you and M and The Little Princess! We are so glad that you feel welcome in our home and in our family. We love you!
