My favorite part was playing basketball with all of the kids. I was blown away by how well they got along with one another in the game. Joe, Kyle, Griffin, and I talked about how all the kids were extremely close and have an inseparable bond. They put a smile on my face when I saw how much excitement those kids had. I was also happy to have a nice conversation with an 8th graders named Stephen. He made me realize that the Navajo people are just like me because he told me how he was nervous for the 9th grade. It allowed me to think back when I was in his shoes and had the same thoughts. These kids allowed me to escape my thoughts about missing family and to just be a kid. I am thankful for this experience today.<\/p>\n<p>-Brendon Salladay<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3306\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3306\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/is\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2017\/05\/IMG_1715.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3306 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/is\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2017\/05\/IMG_1715-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/intercultural\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2017\/05\/IMG_1715-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/intercultural\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2017\/05\/IMG_1715-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/intercultural\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/28\/2017\/05\/IMG_1715-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3306\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo credit is Jack Hummel.
