After going to Lowes and spending another 250 bucks, we put up another walls worth of tile last night.  At Lowes we picked out the shower floor tile, and the grout we are going to use.  Also picked up some insulation for the outside walls,  some blinds to go with our new windows, and a couple bits of plumbing stuff.  I’m hoping this will be our last big trip to Lowes for awhile, which is good because we used the very last of the 10% off coupons we had.

Since this was the second wall of tiling, we’re starting to get the hang of it, and it went up fairly easily.  We did have a problem trying to get the tiles to lineup with the other wall though.  Since this wall wasn’t straight, and since we didn’t want to cut the tiles here, it caused some of the gaps in the tile to be a bit bigger than we would have liked.  Hopefully it won’t be very noticeable once we’re all finished.  We had to stop about 6ft up the wall, as we’d like to put a row of trim tile there, and we don’t yet have that tile.
