Exciting News!!!!

We had a great Mothers Day this year. This is the basket that we gave both my mom and Brandon's. Inside was their Mothers Day gift plus a whole bunch of random items that somewhat all went together as well.

Here is a close up of what was in the basket. Can you guess what it all means?

Yep you got it. I am going to be a mom too!!!!
It was fun to see our families open up the basket and when they finally got it they were super excited. We handed them a card once they guessed that said:
Hey diddle diddle!
Someone new! Someone little!
We are thrilled to announce
Baby Borchert
is due to arrive Novemeber, 2009
Girl or Boy?
Either one will bring us joy!
Excited parents to be
Brandon and Felicia
We found out I was prego at about 6 weeks. We wanted to wait to tell everyone till about 12 weeks. It was sooo hard to keep it secret. I have been so sick and tired, that I was sure someone would figure it out. Plus I am definitely getting a baby bump!! Well actually not so much a baby bump but I am starting to look chunky, I am in the awkward stage where it just looks like I have eaten way toooo many Twinkies and donuts!
This pic is of the baby bump starting to poke out. I was about 11.5 weeks prego at the time.
Last week we went to our 12 week appt. It was fun to be able to hear our little peanuts heartbeat. It was 178 and strong, even though the little thing kept moving all over the place.
Brandon thinks its a boy and I think it is a girl. We are actually going to try and wait till the birth to see what it actually is. It is going be hard not to find out the sex, since all I want to do is buy stuff!!! But I have always said I didn't want to find out, so we are going to try and wait.

St George- Part 2

In St. George we went Mtn. Biking. We rode on Bear Claw Poppy which is in Bluffdale and on Sunday went into Hurricane to ride GooseBerry Messa, which is slick rock and alot like the trails in Moab.

These are the awesome view of Zions National Park. On top of the Mesa on the Gooseberry trail.

Viva Las Vegas


So we finally made it on a vacation!! Brandon finished with finals on Wednesday so we decided that night to head down to Vegas and St. George for the weekend. It was a short trip, but it was sooo nice to actually get a way for a while. We only stayed one night in Vegas. We stayed at the MGM Grand and saw the show Ka, by Cirque du Soleil. It was so freakin amazing!!! The tickets were pricey but it was so worth it. Both Brandon and I absolutely loved it!!! We cant wait until we can go see another show by Cirque du Soleil. They are actually doing a traveling show here in Utah in August, that I am hoping we can get tickets to.

This was driving through N. Las Vegas. There was a whole bunch of hobos's. They were everywhere! It was sad to see them with the tents and blankets all lined up against the fence.

One of the many pools at the MGM Grand

Me chillin at the pool!

We went to the Buffet there, It was all you can eat Prime Rib and Crab legs. Brandon was in heaven. I of course was all over the desserts that they had. YUM YUM!!


I tried posting a link to Ka, but I'm not sure it will work. If you want to see the Promo for it go to Youtube and search Ka by Cirque du Soleil. It is worth it!
