What's the strangest thing you saw over the weekend?

Mine would be the blue goat being walked around Selah Community Days by DJ Leviticuss.

The first color run in the valley was yesterday. The Color Naches Fun Run was put on by the Yakima Greenway and it was a huge success with 500 runners of all ages!

The run started at the depot in Naches and went down the Greenway path to Allan warehouse. Along the way were multiple color stations with blue, red, yellow and green at the end with the volunteers dousing us with color.

Gunner was one of the volunteers at the blue station and as I made my way back he chased me down pouring blue all over me. Check out the video ... it's pretty funny.

Yesterday we played the audio from the video of the two guys who are hooked up to a machine that simulates labor pains.

Gunner seems to think that we women just exaggerate how painful child birth really is and that it's not that bad.

Season 6 of True Blood starts on June 16th on HBO and I can't wait!

I'm a little worried about the rumors I'm reading on the Internet. The buzz is that episode 6 is possibly the true death for Eric. Episode 7 is titled 'The Funeral.'

To add fuel to the fire the official True Blood Facebook page posted this picture yesterday with the words, No one lives forever. It's difficult to tell who the picture is, which left everyone on Facebook guessing. Is it Bill or Eric?

The other day I came home to find my son's cat, Zommer, sitting in a bowl on the counter. He looked so cute that I had to snap a picture before I made him get down.

Have you found your pet sitting or sleeping somewhere odd?

The other day my son posted this picture on Facebook. It's him in the bathroom sink with a stuffed cat on his back. (I don't know why he used a stuffed cat when we have 4 real ones?)

I noticed that his friends on Facebook where also posting pictures of animals (real and stuffed) in the bathroom sink

My son Benjamin had his 15th birthday party this past Saturday with the theme Cinco de Mayo. I was worried and a little stressed about the whole boy/girl party thing.

It was really successful and I think the kids had fun? I think the key was the fact that we kept them busy

This picture is totally awesome! Who ever drew this picture is so very talented. Who ever owns this car ... um ... you really should wash it.

If someone drew this on my window I wouldn't want to wash it because it's so darn good! I would also be embarrassed that my car was this dirty
