Kitchen backsplash

Today I started in on the backsplash in the kitchen which is pretty much the last thing that needs to be done. The tiles are 4"x4" and match very well with the counter and cabinets.
I was backbuttering all the tiles and setting them in place so I could fit them just right. For those that have never tiled, it's basically like buttering a piece of bread except you're using mastic and tile instead of butter and delicious bread.
Here is the right side almost totally finished. Still need to cut tiles for under the cabinet where you can see the white
Here is a closer view of the tiles. I'm going to put some trim there under the window sill.
And a full view of what I got done today. Will do under the cabs and microwave tomorrow then grout on the weekend more than likely. We really like how it's turning out!
