"If all mankind minus one were of one opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind." ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859

Turkey Day!

This year we went to our nephew Cristopher's new house for Thanksgiving. This was his first year to host & he did a great job! Chris recently moved in with 3 roommates, a cat & now 2 puppies. His dog, Pika, is a black Australian Shepard mix & Inuyasha, a cute little mutt that looks very beagle-ish, belongs to one of the other guys in the house. Needless to say, as soon as Max discovered the dogs we had a hard time getting him to pay attention to anything else.

We sat down to dinner & all was well. The turkeys were perfect, sweet potatos tasty, stuffing yummy & all the other dishes were quickly devoured as well. Max provided the entertainment by asking Chris's friend Daily why he had long hair & so many piercings. When Daily answered that he had them because "a pretty girl liked them" you could see the wheels turning in Max's little head. Uh-oh...
After dinner, we went downstairs to play a little Guitar Hero. Max had a great time playing against his cousin Sarah & kept us in stitches the entire time. He had such a serious expression & would jump around, playing like a rock star. He really wanted to take the guitars home & was only consoled by a promise to get out Daddy's guitar in the morning.
