I suppose asking why they moved in in the first place would not be out of place?
If they're just there for a few days...Grin and bear it...
If this "visit" is going to last more than a month, I'd put my foot down and Say..
"Esta es mi casa, y hay unas normas que seguir...Ustedes son mis cuñados, y les quiero mucho, pero no pueden llegar aquí y tomar toda la casa como suya"...Quiero que tengamos una buena relación...y eso depende de un poco de respeto por parte de todos. Entre otras cosas, les ruego respeten mi casa y no me cambien las cosas de lugar, si están donde están es porque yo las quiero ahí y me gusta mi casa según la tengo!"
Espero que podamos terminar esta visita como amigos además de cuñados!

i feel for you living with family is never a good idea or easy. have you talked to your husband about how uncomfortable you feel? Maybe the two of you could set some ground rules. like they can live here but need to respect your home and your stuff. maybe they could keep their stuff in their room.
i would also pray about it if your are into that. Speaking from experience these things can get ugly.
if you and your husband really want to help the other family just try to grin an bear it. find a place in your home that you can call your own and retreat to it as often as possible.
good luck and hang in there!

Have you talked to your husband about your problem? Two or more familys can't live in the same house for very long without causing friction. Who is paying the rent? I think it is time to tell your husband how you feel, then you will find out what you really mean to him.
