Thanksgiving is the time for everyone to express what they are thankful for. Family, friends, and health are the most common things people are grateful for having in their lives. At the Tribe, we decided to share what we are all thankful for.

Faith Beaubrun: I am thankful for my mother. No matter how much we may butt heads or how much she may annoy me, its all because she cares.

I am thankful that I have a mom that would do anything for me and always goes the extra mile so I can be the best I can be.

Neiko Megrichian: I am thankful for my experiences. I have created many zealous memories from way off of the beaten path which are irreplaceable. I am thankful that those experiences were able to humble me, and give me new perspectives about life and the simplicity of how it should be lived.
