On Saturday I am signed up for my 2nd ever 5k. Nate and I signed up to race with a few friends from his work and this Saturday is the big day! We signed up for The Ninja Challenge race which looks like a lot of fun and quite a butt kicking at the same time. It is a 5k race with obstacles mixed in the race like monkey bars, rope walls, etc. It looks pretty bad ass and I am super nervous-excited for the big day. As I have said before I am not a fan of running so I probably won't be doing many more of these but I am looking forward to this one since it is an obstacle course too. Fingers crossed I make it out alive because the pictures on the website seriously look insane. Okay, I am starting to get really nervous now...maybe I should have looked at those before signing up??

After the 5k we are going to hang out at my brothers house for a few hours and play with his kittens! How cute are these little fur balls?

The first picture is of the baby, Marley. He is about 9 weeks old and Chris and Erika adopted him from one of their friends who fostered a pregnant cat. He is part Minx (he has a tail!) and part Tabby.  The far right is Misty. Misty was adopted from the animal shelter and she is a few months old. They think she is a Russian Blue, but nobody is really sure. Apparently Russian Blue cat's are prized cats and are very rare to find in a shelter, so it's hard to tell what she is. The middle is the first night they were together getting to meet each other.  They are the best of friends now and Chris and Erika said they don't stop playing with each other all night when they get home. They are the cutest!!! I love my little fur niece and nephew :-).

Sunday is a day full of softball. We have our first weekend of our tournament starting this weekend! If we win we will play again next weekend, but if we lose both of our games the season is over. Boo! Wish us luck, we sure need it!

Tell me about your weekend plans!
