This is what my “happy face” looks like:
And this is why I was so happy:
I was sitting inside this Saturday, trying to watch some CSI and Sara told me before I got too in to the show I needed to move a mini-fridge out of my car. So I begrudgingly threw on a sweatshirt and some shoes. When I went outside, I saw that someone had parked a Mini Cooper in front of our house, and thought nothing of it. I mean, I have seen Minis parked around our house before. Something like that isn’t out of place in Hyde Park.
For some reason, I turned around to look at Sara, since she had come out of the house after me. She was standing there with a camera, and I realized that the Mini in front of our house wasn’t someone else’s… it was mine! Cue happy face.
I am really proud of Sara, since something usually goes wrong when she tries to surprise me. Either she slips and gives me a blatant clue or I find out by accident. This was the first time she tried to surprise me and I didn’t see it coming. I also want to thank Jay Sofranec at Cincinnati Mini. He really went above and beyond, coming to pick us up in the car so we could go and sign all the necessary paper work. If you are in the market for a Mini, make sure to give him a call. He will treat you right.
Now I need to figure out what obnoxious vanity plate I am going to put on my car…
