Summary

When we look back at how we updated our previous homes, there are more than a few design decisions we regret - so we're breaking down five things that we'd go back and do differently if we had a time machine. And ding-dong, the deck is gone! Yup, we ripped that monster off the house, and the yard's already feeling awesomely open - but checking this item off our to-do list has actually just added more to it (it's like the plot of 'If You Give A Mouse A Cookie'). We also check Sherry's Color of The Year predicting skills, and John explains why he rejects tool brand monogamy.
