Peyton Harper Wins FFA State President!

Congratulations to my stepson, Peyton Harper! He was selected Wednesday, April 2, as TN State President for FFA in Gatlinburg at the FFA State Convention. Peyton competed against many other candidates for this huge honor and responsibility. He will have an awesome year traveling the state and representing TN FFA with 7 other state officers. In July, Peyton will get to travel to Washington, DC along with the presidents and secretaries from other states. In addition to this, he won first place in the state for his proficiency which was based on his assistance with his Grandpa's boer goat herd.
We are so super proud of him that we cannot even say it enough! He has put in a lot of hard work this year toward achieving this goal, and we are certain he will represent well. John and I would really like to tip our hats to his wonderful advisors at Wilson Central who have really been diligent in coaching him along - Benny McDonald and Pam Walker.
