Or am I just too presumptuous?

I would expect to eat brunch or lunch there. I guess that didn't happen.
That's something that you or your spouse may suggest in the future if the in-laws weren't thinking along those lines.
We divide most holidays among both of our families and make it very clear that we expect food if we're doing all of this traveling.
On Christmas day we drove 2 hours to arrive at family #1 for a normal brunch (because family #1 didn't want to do a Christmas dinner due to other commitments) at 11:30am, stayed for 4 hours, and drove an hour to family #2 for the official Christmas dinner.
