~*~ Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays FFA ~*~
Christmas is full of shiny things
That sparkle, gleam and glow;
These holiday pleasures dazzle us,
And yet, deep down, we know..
That Christmas has its special gifts,
But our year-round joy depends
On the cherished people in our lives,
Our family and our friends
The friends we've made in FFA,
Have made our lives so neat.
A world wide group of online friends,
Who are a special treat.
The fun, the games, the fellowship,
Are merely just a part.
The friendships made in FFA,
Have touched our very hearts.
The Admin Team would like to Wish Each of You a very Happy Holiday Season. May we all remember the true spirit of the season not only today but throughout the year ahea
We have several special events planned throughout the Holiday week ahead. Come join us in the room and have some fun with your FFA friends
