This has been such a wonderful month. I was sworn into the Texas bar today, as well. I'm so grateful for so many things!

Well today was supposed to be the day I finally took delivery of my MINI. Unfortunately due to my credit union not mailing the dealer the title of my current vehicle in time, I was not able to take delivery .

I did however manage to take the first pics of my new Coop!

These pictures really do not do the Astro Black color justice. It's a bluish black which looks great!

I'm now hoping to take delivery on Thursday or Friday.

your cooper looks awesome!!! i've seen the astro black in person, and it really does look great... try to get some good sunlight shots- that might show off the awesome color better.

I will have pictures tomorrow sometime mid-day of my brand new astro black R53. Although, I think there's supposed to be an overcast so I don't know how well the astro black will come through.

So close, but yet so far!

My MINI is waiting for me at the dealership. Unfortunately we had to purchase our leased Toyota Corolla (then will trade it in); my husband didn't have time to get a cashier's check to pay off the lease today, so will do it tomorrow. Meanwhile, I couldn't pick up Chequers today. I plan to be there with bells on tomorrow! Please keep good thoughts that nothing else goes wrong!

chequers when you finally get to pick up the new addition please post a lot of picture. Even get some from the dealer while you are taking delivery.
I am glad that your wait is almost over. I still have at least a week to go.
Happy Motoring
