You're sweet to think that way. But there is a solution to that problem: if you';re newly pregnant, have just returned home after undergoing surgery, be it coronary bypass or breast enhancement, or have just come off a seventy-two hour on-call during which you got exactly twenty consecutive minutes of sleep--STAY HOME! This couple wasn't invited, they invited themselves, remember.

Exactly!!
What's the point of visiting someone if you;re not going to be a pleasant guest?

maybe she is just shy. maybe she thought you didn't want help. maybe her mother never taught her to help clear from a table. maybe she had a long week. lots of maybes.
I would say, to make your DH happy, have them again. Definitely try to engage her in coversation. Maybe this time she'll help. But go into shabbos with low expectations so you're not disappointed. Don't make complicated food. Buy some stuff. Use disposable plates etc. they make very pretty ones these days.
Give it one more chance. Especially if it will make DH happy, he will appreciate it and that can only help your relationship.
