What do you call your in-laws?
I been with my h for almost 6 years now and have a good relationship with them but I don't really call them anything...I feel too formal calling them mr.&mrs....but not really sure if mom and dad is what I'm comfortable with...they never brought it up and I never heard my sister in law call them anything either?! Just wondering what other people do?

I call MIL by her first name. I don't really call FIL anything....but would probably jokingly call him Dad randomly and see his reaction to it!
FIL has the same name as my H...as does my Brother, and my Dad....lol

H's "dad" is easier, because he's his mom's 3rd husband and H calls him by his first name, so I do, too. And I try to avoid calling his mom anything, but when I do it's by her first name.
However- H still calls my parents "Mr. & Mrs." ;p
I call his mother Pat, both of our fathers are deceased
I don't think I've ever heard hubby call my mother anything. Now that I think of it, he just looks directly at her and speaks. LOL
This is really awkward because MIL wants me to call her Mom, but I don't feel comfortable doing so. We also have an odd relationship. I don't feel like she warmed up to me until H & I got engaged. I try not to call them anything, otherwise it's Mr/Mrs. K.
H is totally comfortable calling my parents Mom & Dad.
This is actually one of the reasons I'm looking forward to having kids because then they will just be grandma and grandpa (or whatever they want to be called).
I don't call them anything. But if I were, I would call them by their first names.
To them directly I call them by their first names. My MIL and I dont have a good relationship. She still sees me as competition and I'm taking her son away from her. She's nice to my face and talks about me behind my back. So I definitely don't call her mom.
If I'm talking to H I call them "Your mom and Dad"
