Stepfather Is A Stranger. Can Mom Sue For Grandparents Rights?

My mother became a widow while I was an adult. She met, dated, and remarried her new husband while I was living in another state. We recently moved back to my home state (Texas). We live 2 hours away from my mom and her husband. She has been making unreasonable demands regarding how often we visit her. She expects us to drive up to visit her every other weekend (a two hour drive there and back is a 4 hour drive in total. A 4 hour drive every other weekend is not something we are able to do). We invite them to our kids birthdays and extracurricular activities, but they don't always come to the extracurricular activities. We give them opportunities to see my kids, but they only seem interested in us coming to them, not coming to our kids sports or plays. She also wants my kids to spend the weekend or even a whole week at her house. I don't know her new husband very well, he's practically a stranger to me and my kids. I have told her that I don't feel comfortable with my kids staying at her house until I get to know him better. She gets mad and says she is their grandmother and has rights. She is threatening to sue us for grandparents rights. Does she really have a case?
