Monday evening my kids and I met J1's kids at their home. She and I combined resources and worked together to to fix a burgers and dogs dinner for the seven kids. While we were cooking the kids spent some time getting acquainted.
Her boy and my two boys got along well and seemed to have several things in common. My daughter and her three girls also seemed to get along well. And surprisingly enough my youngest boy and her oldest girl who are the same age got along very well.
After dinner I spent an hour or so fixing bike tires for her kids and getting them ready to ride.
On the way home my kids said they enjoyed meeting her and her kids and that they liked them.
All in all a small step in a good direction.

Woohooo!
That's great, Mike!
My kids and I are used to large family type get togethers so it was fun. Seven kids are not hard to keep track of they travel in packs of 2 or more so we basically had three groups to follow.
What was really funny is how much taller my kids are than hers. My oldest
"It looked a bit like a visit by giants compared to her kids"
LOL!
Did you two talk about the gathering later?
Not yet. I called and left a message for her this morning but I do not expect to hear back from her until this evening.
