And the tiling continues

Ryan and his dad worked like crazy today.  The floor of the kitchen is almost done in one day!  Mostly the back hallway is left.  It was a lot of work, we went with a 12×12 surrounded by 6×6 tiles surrounded by 12x12s.  Seems simple, but it means a lot of cuts.

Kitchen floor, just looks amazing!!!

Also done today, the backsplash section behind the stove is done!  The design from the other wall will continue onto the rest of this wall and butt up against this pattern on both sides.

I don’t think you can tell in the picture (I couldn’t get close without stepping on the floor) but the 4 center tiles have a design on them, looks great!

The picture is a little blurry because I couldn’t stand on the kitchen floor to take it (obviously).  Tomorrow the rest of the floor gets tiled, just a small section in the bathroom hallway area (they did half of it so we could still get to the bathroom and tomorrow they’ll do the other half and we’ll walk on today’s tile to get to the bathroom.

The stove is in place, the fridge/freezer will have to wait to go back in until we grout because the pattern continues under the fridge.  This evening we went out to dinner (Alex did great, even with an ear infection – again – and being exhausted), then over to home depot to pick up more thinset and some grout so we are ready to grout on monday.  I’m really looking forward to having this week off, we’ll get the house ready for Alli’s birthday and maybe get to relax a bit too!
