my MINI gift story...share yours

my hubby surprised me with my mini in Sept...i have been wanting my mini back since I gave up my first one which was 3 years ago....i went back and forth in colors until i landed on the Mellow Yellow with black top and black rims...my hubby and i would always visit the mini dealers on Sundays when they were closed and i would sometimes find them open and i would sit in them. One day i saw the perfect one...2 weeks later i found out the Mellow Yellows will be discontinued starting 2010...i told my hubby that when the time comes (we were saving for it) that i would be OK with a used one caused i wanted Mellow Yellow and i would be OK.....any how the story goes that he went and purchased the perfect one i sat in (without me knowing) on a Wed...on Sat he took me to lunch but stopped by the MINI dealer and of course i said lets test drive one...as we test drove the Mellow Yellow MINI with black rims and black top... while in the mini he asked what was those papers in the pocket of the door...when i opened it i saw our last name...and could not believe that he had bought me my Perfect Mellow Yellow Mini.....I cried all the way back to the mini dealer....my hubby the romantic...i will never for get it...I love him a MINI MORE
