My in-laws live in England, and when we go visit it's just two weeks of head nodding and smiling and feeling completely inadequate and going crazy. Father-in-law has the thickest accent I've ever heard, and I don't understand a word he says.
I once laughed after he told me about something he'd seen on the news that apparently involved death! I *laughed* and it wasn't funny at all. They mostly think of me as that weird Canadian girl that scored their son, but they're nice about it...I think...when I understand them they seem nice. :)
Don't worry about it, maybe this wedding planning will get you and your mother-in-law closer, and all the worry will magically disappear :)
