If we don't have an dog or child escape the house, I'll feel like a complete success. With all of the workers in and out, both dogs have managed to get out already. Fortunately we found them quickly.
Landscaping demo begins next week. We are building a gated courtyard in the front. We're tearing up the saltillo tile and replacing it with slate, adding a 3-tier cantera stone fountain, and doing some planting.
In the back, we're ripping out the strange center planter and the walkways that lead to it. We're replacing it with sod so that we have a nice grassy play yard. We're adding a dog run on the side, so that the dogs have a coyote-free zone to potty that will keep them away from the escape gate!
I really wish I could include the blueprints for the design. It's going to be amazing! Instead, you'll have to settle for a before picture. This picture was taken from the doors off the master bedroom. On the left is the kids wing, and the separate structure is our tiny little guest house.
