Kyle's Weekend Surprise!

As an accounting student at BYU, Kyle attends a lot of recruiting events hosted by the Big Four accounting firms. This past Saturday, there was an event held by Ernst and Young. In addition to being able to network and talk with potential employers, the company offered ten students an awesome prize! EY had a drawing and the winners were flown out to the BYU game in Denver. Guess who won?!
This is Kyle in the private jet the students were flown out in. Nice, huh! Notice that he is seated in a recliner...
Kyle and the CEO of EY. Kyle said that he is the coolest guy ever. He makes over a million dollars a year and he played flight attendant on the plane by getting everyone drinks and lots of snacks.
Finally, a picture at the game. We played agianst Gonzaga, which happens to be one of our favorite teams. We sure were excited that the Cougars pulled off a solid win. Now we are in the Sweet 16 and will be playing against Florida for a spot in the Elite 8 on Thursday. Anyway, after the game, the students were taken out for a steak dinner (the bill came to like $1000!!) and then they were put up in a hotel for the night and flown home Sunday afternoon. What an awesome prize!

Kyle was so excited to win this prize and I am so jealous that he got to go! He had such a great time and kept talking about how it was "the greatest thing ever!" I'm so glad that he got to go and had such a great time.
