Tyler Steps it Up

Being in the Teacher's Quorum presidency, Tyler helps plan some of the activities for the young men in his group. The other night was supposed to be a movie night but nothing was planned other than that. No home to watch it in so the leaders said to bring a movie to the church and they'd vote on what to watch. Tyler wasn't looking forward to going and he said no one else was either. I told him that it was because nothing was planned. If he picked a movie, planned themed foods around it and had it at our house more boys would come and they'd be excited about it. So Tyler decided to do that. He opened our house to the event and said he'd be showing Transformers One and supplying snacks. 

He set out Transformers as decorations and helped me plan the food to go with the theme. 

We made signs to label the different snacks. It was a good spread and guess what....they had more boys show up than they've had at an activity in a while. Tyler was excited for the activity and even more so that the others were. I'm proud of Tyler for stepping up and taking the lead at organizing an activity and getting more boys involved. 

Tyler has been working a lot in DECA. His advisors have been impressed with him and how quickly he picks up on things. 

He just went to a DECA conference in Seattle and LOVED it. He's growing so much and branching out, finding things he is passionate about. His outgoing personality, charm, and charisma helped him score pretty good; one of his teachers told Jaime.

Going on overnight trips with friends is something Tyler is all for. He had a blast and is already looking forward to the next one.
