Happy Valentine's Day!!
Last night's sophomore night was great! Matt and the assistant coaches did a great job of honoring the five sophomores who were playing their final home game at Solano. There are photos from the celebration on my photo web site. And there will be more added later.
Shockingly enough...The Falcons won. So, that means, with a win on Friday over Mendocino, we clinch our second conference title in three years. Hopefully we can close out the season with three wins and have some momentum going into the playoffs. It's been a great conference season and the girls are really fired up to keep the win streak going.

Monday, Monday
What a beautiful sun shiny weekend!
Once we got done with the filming on Friday around 5 p.m., Diana, V and I went out to dinner. I couldn't imagine going home and standing on my feet for another 30-45 minutes to make dinner...I had been on my feet all day in heels, running around the building and I just couldn't stand any longer.
I even tried to walk on the treadmill after Diana went to bed and my knees started to swell. I had to stop.
So, I watched TV and waited for the phone call from Matt telling about the game. They won 106-55. Ouch. They have no mercy!
On Saturday I did some shopping at the mall with a friend of mine. I got a ton of new clothes (and all of them were on sale) which I needed desperately.
Sunday was the best though. We all went to the driving range and hit balls. I hit pretty good, considering that I hadn't hit balls in forever. Diana enjoyed being Mommy and Daddy's caddy more than she wanted to hit balls. We brought her clubs and she tried to hit the ball a couple times, but when she missed, she picked the ball up and chucked it out into the open. It was funny...even she laughed at herself.
She was very helpful on the putting green while Matt and I putted. Once the ball stopped rolling toward the hole, she would pick it up and throw it back to us. This saved Matt and I more time and allowed us to practice putting. Unfortunately, more people started coming over to the putting green and Diana wasn't able to be the caddy. But she did a great job and had so much fun. When we got home we played in the backyard for about an hour. I am sure that breathing fresh air was a wonderful thing for her.
I have to give a big shout out to Matt because he bought me these fantastic pair of Carlos Santana shoes that I have been wanting for quite a while. They are my Valentine's gift.
Back to work and school today though and the day is moving along. Two more big games this week, including sophomore night on Wednesday.
Go Falcons!

Whoa!
Last night was one of the most unbelieveable games I have ever witnessed-both as a player and a coach's wife.
We beat Napa Valley 101-42. The girls played so well. Everything went right, it seemed. The crowd was stunned, but excited at the same time. Solano started the game on a 23-0 run in which Napa called four timeouts. The girls were so excited everytime the coach called a timeout. They lept off the bench and celebrated with the girls coming out of the game. It was great energy and I was so proud of them.
Matt also got his 150th win at Solano and though he said it wasn't a big deal, the girls did a great job of presenting him with a plaque in front of a large crowd.
I just hope the girls and coaches can keep up this same intensity for five more games. It seems that they are ready to make this final push and win the league title with an undefeated record.

Busy week
This week is going to be a busy one for the Borchert family.
Not only do we have two more big games this week (Napa on Wednesday) but Angela has a busy week culminating with a production company coming to corporate this Friday to film some employees. Copart was named one of the Best Places to Work in the Bay Area and they are basically coming all day Friday to film. It's going to be pretty fun. So, I am helping prepare for that all week. We have to meet with the people that are going to be on camera (different employees here and at our Martinez yard) to go over what they should say. It's all buzz words so we give them the questions and answers prior to the filming.
I love being busy at work, especially when it's for something like this that I have never done. It's interesting to be a part of a filming session like this. I have no idea what to expect.
Anyway, the big game on Wednesday should be a good one. It's our next to last home game and against a team that was talking all kinds of trash before the season. They have three league losses now. :)
Oh and Megan turns 12 this weekend! As Diana would say "Oh boy-yah!

7-0
I hope I am not jinxing anything and I doubt that the family is relying on me to keep this blog up to date anymore, but here goes.
Matt's team is 7-0 in conference. It's amazing. The team is playing really well right now and we hope to keep things going through the rest of the season. We won all our conference games by double digits, though we got a little scare last night. We were down two at half to Contra Costa, our big rivals, but pulled it out with an inspired second half.
Diana reached a big stage in the last week or so (which is the main reason for writing). She is sitting on the potty regularly at school and every so often at home. She actually goes at school, but has yet to go at home. The teachers at her school asked us to bring Pull-ups because it's easier for them and her when they take her potty. Pull-Ups!!! So, Matt and Diana went to the store this morning and got her some Princess Pull-Ups.
I can't believe that what we have been doing with her potty training has worked. It's amazing..our kid is amazing. We didn't force it on her, we just asked her every so often if she needed to go. I know we have a long way to go still, but it's a great start!

Another list item
We got Diana some Play-Doh a while back and she loves it. She rolls it out with her little rolling pin and cuts "cookies" with the canisters. It's messy, but she loves it. She does need some Play-Doh accessories though if you want to add that her already long Christmas list!

Diana's Christmas List
Is it too early? I started my Christmas shopping last weekend and we are getting bombarded with catalogs in the mail, so it's kinda hard to avoid. Here's the lowdown on shopping for Diana for Christmas--she doesn't need any toys, plus with all the lead in toys and toys being recalled at a rapid pace, we are even more hesitant.
There are some things that she needs, besides clothes, which are always always welcome. She's into a 3T or 4T by now. She won't wear jeans. For the most part, she wears sweats and cotton shorts. Also, she likes to take her diaper off at night so we have resorted to putting her in onesies as PJs. So, if you can find onesies that are 24 mos. and older, buy them...PLEASE!
She needs some busier bath toys. A lot of the ones she has right now are from when she was little and she gets a little bored of pouring, pouring, pouring for the 15 minutes she is in the tub. There are some in the Lillian Vernon catalog that are cute. Anything really is fine. Just stuff that keeps her busy.I have been looking for the bath crayons but haven't had any luck. I think she would like those.
She's also really into the Disney Princesses (Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Snow White and Jasmine). Anytime she sees them (which is everywhere nowadays) she goes crazy. She also likes Hello Kitty (we met her at the outlets the other day) and Sesame Street. Books are fine too. She also loves cars and her new train set.
Matt and I are probably going to buy the soccer goal set for her that's in the Lillian Vernon catalog. She loves to kick her soccer ball and is quite good at it. She loves playing outdoors and has quite an outdoor collection. Of course, she also loves basketball, so keep that in mind.
Some other things that I liked and would actually help her with school: there's an easel that comes with paint in the Lillian Vernon catalog. She's really afraid to use the paint at school because she doesn't want to get messy. We bought her some Play-Doh (which she loves loves) and that's made her a little more outgoing during art time at school. I think the easel would get her more involved.
Hopefully, I have helped, but not been too pushy. Everyone always asks what to get Diana for Christmas so hopefully this will be good to refer back to. Also, get in touch with family members and exhange lists. I know several of you have done that in the past.
Side note/Different topic:We are really looking forward to the season starting on Friday! Can't wait to see the girls in action!

Great Halloween
I posted some photos on SmugMug of Diana's third Halloween, but to put it in writing...she had so much fun. She doesn't eat candy so it makes the night so much better for us, we can just cruise around to a couple houses and head back home. Several of Matt's players came over to the house so we had a packed abode...it made it really fun. Matt ordered pizza (eight of them) so we had plenty of food for all the hungry mouths. We didn't have that many trick or treaters in our neighborhood, but I don't think that many kids trick or treat anymore. It's kinda sad really.
Back to Diana...She loved going up to people's doors, ringing the doorbell and getting some candy. She even started to pick out her own candy at one lady's house. We visited the house where Diana spit up on the lady's front porch three years ago and she totally remembered Diana. It was pretty funny. At one point, Aunt MIchelle took over and brought her up to the front doors. Then, Diana would literally pull Michelle up the street to go to the next house. Poor Michelle, dressed in that prom outfit with heels on had a hard time keeping up with D.
Matt's first game is next Friday at Mt.SAC. It's going to be fun. We are looking forward to it. Diana, Grand V and I are leaving Friday afternoon. We will miss the first game but be there for Saturday and Sundays games. Go Solano!

Things are going very well
I haven't blogged in one month. Sorry about that.
Before I catch everyone up, I would like to say that I am glad that my in laws to the South are doing well and that they escaped those horrible fires without any damage to themselves or their home. Our thoughts were with you everyday. Sorry, Ryan and Megan, time to go back to school! :)
OK...Where to begin. Working at Copart is great! It's such a great atmosphere, everyone is very helpful and since my boss and other co-worker in Communications are a little less busy these days, it's fun to get to know everyone and be more social while also getting more work done.
Copart is a growing company and we have two test markets going on right now that are going to be huge for the company's expansion. I am actually going to be put in charge of one from a communications standpoint so I am really excited about that because I think the idea is genius.
I don't know if anyone has been watching the stock market, in particular Copart stock, but it's one of the most talked about stocks on the NASDAQ today. I would highly advise getting in touch with a stockbroker and buying some of this stock before it gets more expensive. We have an employee stock purchase program through work that I will be eligible for in three months, but won't be able to sign up until June. I have already talked with a stockbroker and am looking into buying some stock before then. It's a great company and only going to get better.
Diana...What can I say? She's great. She hasn't cried yet at KinderCare and loves every minute of it. The teachers love her because she follows directions, stays clean and doesn't seem to be nearly as sick as some of those other kids in her class. She does artwork everyday (it's hanging up framed in our house), eats healthy meals and plays with the other kids. She also loves her teachers. There is a Halloween party on Tuesday so I will post some pictures next week so everyone can see what her school looks like. She's having a blast!
Matt's team has its first game in two weeks. I am really excited about this season. Not only because there are some talented girls on his team, but because I get to go to more games. It's going to be a blast! I am going to be posting pictures of his players on my SmugMug account, so make sure to check it out when you get a chance.

Time goes by too fast
I have two days of work left. I have what seems like a million things to do between now and Friday. One interview just fell through because the guy called me at work and I am at home. I am POSITIVE that I told him to call me at home. Now, the guy has to go to class and I most likely won't be able to do the interview this week. Another guy that I was supposed to interview Monday morning didn't have his cell turned on. I called and called and left two messages but he never got in touch with me. It's an interview and a story I really want to do but it's not looking good.
These seem like signs to me. It's like God is telling me, "Angela, you are leaving. Just enjoy the last few days and don't take on anything new. Cruise out of here and move on."
Maybe I should listen. One more interview try this afternoon and hopefully I can get one story done before Friday.

Fun Family Farm Days
We made a trip out to Suisun Valley which hosted the second annual Fun Family Farm Days. Various farms, wineries and businesses opened their shops and had different activities going on to draw attention to the valley. It was a ton of fun and Matt was able to get some more fruits and vegetables at Larry's Produce.
You can visit SmugMug to see more pictures from the day.

Vacation almost over
Today is Angela's last day of vacation. What a bummer. It was great...11 days of not thinking about work, not reading the newspaper and just relaxing with friends and family.
Lake Tahoe was great. Despite the fact that Angela and Grand V fell out of the kayak and Matt and Angela ate a spectacular dinner instead of seeing Bonds hit No. 756, it was wonderful!
You can see some pictures from Lake Tahoe on the SmugMug Web site. Enjoy!

Me and My Shadow
Diana has two new best friends. With 2-year-olds, this seems to change everyday...Pink Doggy is her best friend for a couple days and then her baby and this week, it's Ryan and Megan.
Diana has all but forgotten about Pink Doggy, sometimes Baby, but mostly Mom and Dad. Her two new best friends, who she follows around the house all day long are her cousins. Ever since they arrived, she has to know where they are at all times. They color together, play kitchen, do puzzles. All the stuff that mom and dad did with her before, it's now Ryan and Megan's turn.
And they politely play. Good thing the toys that Diana has now are enjoyable for an 11 year old and 13 year old. Otherwise, we would be out of luck.
Mom and Dad just love to watch Diana play with Ryan and Megan. This evening, while we were cooking dinner, Diana sat on the couch and played BrainQuest with Ryan. Ryan quizzed her on different items. It was adorable!
We are hoping that the transition once Ryan and Megan go back home will be OK...We aren't thinking about that yet though, we are just enjoying the fun D is having right now!

New Web site
Angela started a new photo sharing web site today. It's only a 14-day free trial, but will be making it permanent when the trial ends. You can visit www.borchertmr.smugmug.com to see the one photo that's on there now.
Unfortunately for those who like to right click photos of Diana, you can't do it from here. Angela signed up for the account that doesn't allow visitors to right click. This was so that once basketball season starts, we can protect the photos from theft when we post them.
If you see a photo you want, just let us know and we will make a copy and mail it to you!

Trip to the Zoo
Aunt Michelle, Diana and Ang went to the Sacramento Zoo today. What fun! There are some incredible animals at the zoo. We saw flamingos which were absolutely beautiful, screaming monkeys (hilarious), giraffes (another beauty), ducks (love em), orangatanes (sp)which are just about the slowest creature alive and much more.
Diana seemed to like the flamingos because they were pink. She loved the ducks of course and tried to talk to them. Most of the animals seemed to be boycotting because of the heat and just stayed in the shade most of the morning that we were there. It was as if they were saying, "You can see me from there."
We didn't stay long, about 2 hours. They had a playground and Diana got to play for a little bit. That might have been her favorite part actually. Another mom commented that she thought the zoo was supposed to be for the kids, but it was more for the adults. Totally true. Ang and Michelle got more enjoyment out of the screaming monkeys, giraffes and flamingos than Diana. OH well.
You can visit twopeas to see some photos Ang took at the zoo. There's a link at the bottom of the blog. Enjoy!

At the County Fair
Diana, mom, dad and Grand V went to the County Fair in Vallejo on Friday. The weather was perfect!
Diana had a great time. She rode the ponies, watched the Splash Dogs competition, saw some crazy high divers, colored, had lunch and then went to the horse races. It was a busy four hours!
Her favorite had to be the pony rides and petting zoo. She was having a great time saying hi to all the goats in the petting zoo until one of them got mad at another and the two goats started head butting one another while Diana was darn near in the middle of them. We got out of there with the quickness.
She was so brave to get up on the pony and ride him around for a couple minutes. Well worth the five bucks.
Oh, and we watched Cook's Racing Pigs. What a riot! Grand V and momma's pigs won so we got a blue ribbon and Grand V won the overall prize so she got a t-shirt that said "My Pig Won.!" Hilarious!

Here's the photo
I decided to post the photo here to see what it looks like. I put the watermark on it for TwoPeas, but it's probably safe to use it here too so no one can steal it.Enjoy!
Trip to Calistoga
Wow! What a great (and exhausting) day we had. It all started at 10:45 when we left the house to pick up Grand V and off we went to Calistoga. Jenn (Ang's best friend since the fourth grade)was in Lakeport visiting her parents so we met her and her family (kids and parents) at a restaurant in Calistoga. We had lunch and then walked around and did some shopping. We met at 12:30 and didn't leave till 3. It was great to see Jenn, the boys and her parents. We shared some really nice conversations.
On the way home we made a couple stops just to enjoy being out of town for a day. We did some more shopping at the Napa outlets. I bought Diana some t-shirts at Gymboree off the clearance racks because for some reason, that's the only place where the discounts are at outlets.
Isn't the purpose of outlets supposed to be that they have discounted prices on everything? Not so much the case at the Napa outlets. It seems like they have some stuff on sale at most of the outlets, but they bring in the regular seasonal stuff to put on their shelves so they can boost sales. It's ridiculous really.
Anyway...Had a great day. I posted a picture of Diana in Calistoga on Two Peas if you want to check it out. It's called "Cutie On Duty"

Happy Fourth!
Wow...Once again, I am a slacker and haven't posted for months and months. I am not even going to try to catchup (chances are, we've talked since I last posted). I am going to start posting photos here though.
Fourth of July was good. Angela had to work, but we all went as a family (plus Debbie, yay!) to the parade in Fairfield. You can visit TwoPeas to see some parade photos that Angela took and also some photos she took of fireworks that night from the top of her office building! :)
Diana got her first hair trim this morning. We went to the lady who has cut Angela's hair since she was a pre-teen and Diana did wonderful. She sat in the chair and it only took 10 minutes. I think once we told her that she was getting her hair cut so she wouldn't have to shoo it out of her face with her hands anymore, she totally understood that she wanted to have her hair cut! :)
I will post some more as the summer goes on. It's too hot to go outside (100-plus today) so I will be on the computer a lot!

I think once we told her that she was getting her hair cut so she wouldn't have to shoo it out of her face with her hands anymore, she totally understood that she wanted to have her hair cut! :)
I will post some more as the summer goes on. It's too hot to go outside (100-plus today) so I will be on the computer a lot!
