we ordered our tile on wednesday and picked it up on saturday. dave patched the hole (well, really he just covered it with a piece of wood since the other walls had wood on them) and then on sunday our good friend and master tiler, kevin brace, came over to help us out.
the whole thing went rather smoothly (which never happens with projects in our house) and we even ended up with a whole bunch of extra tile left over. so it wasn't even as expensive as we thought it'd be.
hopefully this evening we'll be grouting and be able to check this project off of the list. the next step is to re-tile the kitchen floor which kevin said wouldn't be hard at all...after the tile is all busted up and our house is a complete mess that is.
thanks for all of the help, kevin! it looks great!

i was a little nervous about dave doing the cutting, but he did a great job. he made 2 perfect cuts on the accent piece and i don't think anyone else could have done a better job!:
finished (minus the grout):
