Kitchen tile

Dave's fall break was successfully filled entirely with our kitchen tile project. We had hoped to add in a few fun things during his fall break like going up to Sundance (ski resort) and riding the ski lift up the mountain to enjoy the beautiful fall colors and possibly even camping, but we ran out of time and didn't do any of those extras. We have a beautiful new kitchen floor though! We still have the "finishing touches" to do like put the baseboards back up and do some touch up painting, but the majority of the project is complete! We did notice (after the tile was set and the grout had dried...of course) that one of our tiles broke (as you can see in the picture). We need to chisel out that tile and replace it as well. Hopefully we can get those finishing touches done fairly soon. We are then finished with home improvement projects for awhile. I think we are ready to have our house be in a normal state until we get ancy and want another project!
