As soon as you marry the person you love, her or his family becomes your family as well. This just means that when you marry the person you love, you also marry her or his entire family. Some people don't like the thought alone of having these relationships, but there's nothing scary about them. Think of the situation differently, you can see it as a blessing. Without your in-laws, you wouldn't have the man of woman you have vowed to love forever.
To constantly enliven and add a spice to your relationship with your in-laws, show them they are in your heart as much as their son or daughter you married is. Occasionally, send them cards or gifts. Cards, are so overrated and they aren't so hard to give. Try giving your in-laws gifts that would make your relationship with them warmer. After all, you all share one thing in common - your spouse.
