Busy week of Recognition

Hi Everyone,

It's a little odd, but we've had 2 people in family receive recognition awards for work they've done.

Tyler flew to Denver, CO to an awards ceremony where he received 2 awards for his continued success in being one of the top 3 highest production and fee income loan officers for his bank. Due to this success, he recently received a promotion and is heading up the new Construction Loan department here. We are VERY proud of him!

On the same night,Kayla was receiving a plaque for her work done on her school science project. It was entitled, Mind over Matter. She had a taste test of Mt. Dew, Dr. Pepper, Sprite and Pepsi with her classmates blindfolded. She tested them to see if they could tell what they were drinking without looking at it. Do you think this is easy? Oh no...most of the class thought they could do it, but when we tested them, many of them got it wrong. Mom helped a little bit with the project, but she did most of the work. We are VERY proud of her! Way to go Kayla!
