New backsplash!!

Since it looks like our house is not going to sell before the baby comes, Mark and I are going to do a few things to the house to make it more what we want to live in. Well, what we really want is a basement and another bedroom, but that will just have to wait for the next house. I know we'll eventually move, but it may be a few years from now instead. We can definitely make things work here in this house, but it will be tight with two kiddos.

So here are a few pictures of the new travertine backsplash that Mark put up. He did a great job and I love it! I wish we had done it years ago. The best part is that it was CHEAP...about $150!! I'd love to put in granite countertops, but I don't think that makes sense since none of the houses in our neighborhood in our price range have it and we probably wouldn't get a good return on our investment.

That looks awesome! I have wanted to do that so bad and I can't believe it was only $150. I'm going to have to start sweet talking David.
