It's easy for me to just say if you want them to know then tell them. But obviously I'm in a different situation, my mum believes there is "something" after death but she too hates organised religion, and I live in England in a area that was deemed by a local priest "the most godless city in Britain", so being an Atheist really isn't seen as a big deal here. But I'd hope as family they would rather you be open and honest with them as opposed to being someone you're not.
On a side note, most people loved being labelled as living in a godless city, we have fairly low levels of violent crime, a very culturally diverse city, a highly artisitc and musically talented city and are the gay capital of the uk...so if that's what being godless is all about then bring it on! (also we are the drug death capital, but we'll just ignore that bit as drugs are fun as long as you don't die)
