Some More Progress:

The kitchen wall is up to counter height now. You can see that we've got the little back-splash section in as well. The higher side will be where the window glass will sit. You can also see the future anchor points buried right in for later.

Melissa tiled the mid-house cold box (liquor cabinet? we have't really decided) and did a great job. Good thing we remembered before building the walls all the way up.
