Hey Everyone,
I am back in Phoenix after spending Christmas with my family. I spent Christmas day in Mexico. I finally have been able to knock back a few beers. I got a new lap top for a present and I am still trying to figure it out. We lit firecrackers and had fun just hanging out. I also spend some time in Yuma hanging with my friends and their families in between training.

Yesterday I “ran” Squaw Peak, it was not that fun, but it was a nice view of the city. I was surprised how many people were hiking it. The mountain was pretty crowded.

Hope everyone had a great holiday Sseason.

First off I want to say happy holidays to everyone. I hope you all had a good Christmas, I know I did. I spent Christmas with my whole family but then I had to work that night. I was pretty stoked my girlfriend Sacha got me a flip camera so you will be seeing more videos from me in the future. Ive been trying to eat clean and stay on a schedule in case anything pops up. Im headed on another hunting trip this weds that im excited about. It will only be for the day because I have to train that night. Unfortunetly I have to work New Years eve again, just like every year. Thats what sucks about the bar business, you have to work all the fun holidays. Anyways I hope everyone else gets to enjoy the New Year and I think there will be big things for MTX in 2010. Congrats to Ben Henderson, I read that he is engaged.

Hey everybody,
I just created a Facebook (still a work in progress) search for UFCedgargarcia@yahoo.com and Twitter account http://twitter.com/EdgarGarcia170 So please add me on both.

As for now I am back in Yuma to spend the holidays with my family. Efrains training is going good. We installed wall pads in the garage for the wrestling room. Tomorrow is wrestling practice back at the old high school. Cibola Raiders!

Thanks for checking in!

So definitely the story of my 2009, and probably my 2010 also, is how my girlfriend found out I was going to propose to her…just so there’s not too much anticipation the story ends with her saying yes and agreeing to spend the rest of our days on this planet together…

So my girlfriend has all my bank account info because I trust and love her that much and as alot of girlfriends/wives she takes care of a lot of the plane ticket buying/paying big bills/purchasing whatever surprise stuff comes along and she happened to be NOT snooping around (hehe) my bank account and saw a purchase for a lot of money and called me up DYING (more like wanting me to DIE) to know what I spent so much money on??? I made sure I double-checked with her and asked if she ‘really wanted me to tell her???’ she said yes and I said ‘ok, it’s your engagement ring, there you go’ she cried for like 10 mins and told me how much she loved me, it was awesome even though it was all over the phone with her living 300 miles away…a definite story to tell our kids and grand-kids…

The other part that is awesome was that I had been talking with her mom for some time planning everything out on how I was going to surprise her on Christmas eve…I think her mom was more upset than I was, haha…I’m just happy the woman of my dreams said yes and will make my life a living day-dream…

I love you Kathryn Elizabeth Henderson, …
