hey everyone. needless to say I had quite the exciting holiday season. Thanks everyone for the congrats. So a quick recap:

So for those that don't know we spent the holidays this year hanging out with my family and extended family at my cousins house right outside las vegas. We decided to fly in a few days earlier than everyone else to spend some time on the strip and at the grand canyon. So we flew in on the 19th and didnt do anything after landing except walk around a bit, grab a bite, then crash.

On the 20th we just walked around the strip all day long, picking up some christmas gifts along the way. That night I had procured tickets to check out Jersey Boys so we did that. I enjoyed it immensely and highly recommend it if you are ever deciding on a vegas show. After the show, we scooted over to Mandalay Bay to grab a late dinner at Burger Bar. I had the buffalo burger and a couple bloody marys and they were all delicious as usual. Im not sure if this is new or not as I dont recall ever seeing it during any of my previous visits, but for dessert I had the beer ice cream float assortment. Some of the ice cream / beer combinations worked really well while others I wasnt the biggest fan of. It was interesting to try although I think I shoulda gone with one of the many alcoholic milk shakes they offer for dessert instead. One downside to this trip to the Burger Bar, however, was that both Lulu and I got stricken with a nasty case of food poisoning the details of which i will spare you guys. This probably wont prevent me from continuing to go to Burger Bar every time Im in vegas, but I was quite shocked and disappointed that this happened.

So the next day, we hit the road to journey to the grand canyon. The drive was pretty easy as it is very scenic and you can drive 90+ the entire way. So obviously, this is where the proposal happened. Basically we walked around for awhile taking in the views and taking pictures. We get to one outlook and basically it played out very similarly to this, except yelling over a railing into a canyon... very cheesy stuff.

your standard one knee proposal followed. So all this happened on the day the world was supposed to end, which never transpired, so now im stuck in this engagement. stupid mayans. Oh and Lukey, funny you asked the thing about Jabari cuz I was going pretty nuts after I found out Jabari committed to Duke and Lulu was like "how come youre acting like that's the most exciting thing that has happened this trip".

So after the engagement we stayed overnight at the canyon and then drove back to vegas the next day and met up with family. The rest of the trip was spent doing family stuff. Its always awesome to hang out with family, the only downside was we spent so much time playing with my cousin's kids, that Lulu and I came down with nasty sinus infections that we are still trying to get over. It is ridiculous how these days if I spend any prolonged period of time around kids I am pretty much guaranteed to come down with something. I assume that once you become a parent you start to develop some immunity to the bacteria these kids carry around with them no?

Anyways, thats my holiday season in a nutshell. happy new year bitches!
