Kyle & his teacher Anothony.  He's been his teacher for 2 years now.

Room switching

Lance decided he'd like to switch his bedroom to the library.  He picked paint and thought through all the furniture, etc.  Here is the result so far.  He will add shelves and personal items but it's going to be a work in progress.

Katie put his new desk together.

Walls are gray with one teal accent wall.

He'll keep the keyboard in his room.

The desk looks great and so do Katie & Lance

The new "library"

The finished product!  Great job!
