Today is National Teacher Day! Teachers play a critical role in educating and shaping our children. They are kind, patient, hard-working, dedicated, and understanding professionals who help mold our children and guide them in positive directions. We want to thank all of the teachers out there who are still teaching and educating during this time. Tag a teacher in your life and let them know how much you appreciate them!

Happy Earth Day! For farmers and ranchers, every day is Earth Day. They are the original stewards of the land. After all, their livelihood depends on it. Let's be thankful for the hard work they do to make sure we are all fed, clothed and sheltered, not just on Earth Day, but every day.

We would like to wish you and your family a joyous Easter Sunday!
