Question: how can i become closer to my soon to be mother-in-law? 

Answer: Get to know what she likes and doesnt. Go hang out with her, maybe go to yard sales together, go out to eat, go to Walmart! Just be yourself around her. Just spend some time with her, thats the only way! Good luck and Congradulations on getting married soon!
