The GA Farm Bureau Young Farmer Committee Members

This past weekend we had a great time at the state YF Conference.  The weekend was filled with fun, sun, friends, fellowship, and food!  This was a family conference, so we got to visit with lots of our friends and their kids! 

The conference didn’t start until Saturday but we went Thursday night so we could enjoy the grounds.  Thankfully our friends, Matt and Melissa, brought their boat and we got to get on the water!

Later Friday, everyone started arriving for a fun weekend.  So what did we do next?  We ate of course…hehe!  Wings on the lake…awesome food, great fellowship, and an amazing view!

I managed to get one good shot of them together!

My kids had a ball at Saturday’s outside games.  And what kind of farmers would we be without a Tractor Pedal Race for all the kiddos!  Whitman LOVED this event and was very upset that he couldn’t ride them ALL afternoon!  Vera Kate wasn’t feeling that well but still managed to participate.  Cora Jane’s favorite was the Sunflower Seed Spitting contest – and she did really good too!  It reminded me of the watermelon seed spitting contest I used to participate in at the Florida Watermelon Conventions…..Cora Jane did her Momma proud.  LOL!

Mine and Cory’s priorities are God, family, church, and our business.  We are so blessed that GA FB Young Farmers feel the same way.  Sunday morning, Cory led the conference in a Praise and Worship time before the speaker.  I was so proud!  He did a great job.  God has truly blessed him with a gift of music!
