My husband and I recently bought our first home together. It's nothing huge or fancy, but it's ours, paid for with years of scrimping, saving, and working overtime. We'd been slowly fixing it up room by room. The living room was our pride. Fresh paint, patched drywall, and wallpaper I'd dreamed about—soft cream with delicate florals. It took us weeks of late nights to get it right. You could still smell the paint when you walked in. Last weekend, we decided to host a family dinner. My SIL, Jess
