What a great party! This is my first year owning a MINI and every time I meet up with you guys I'm glad I didn't get a Honda Fit!
Thanks to Roy, Martin, Jack/Linda, Beth, Ed and everyone else who helped plan and implement! And thanks to Seattle MINI and all of the vendors and sponsors! Edited by CORNERS - December/12/10 at 6:51pm |

A big thanks to Susan Husted (PERCY) who stepped in to do the decorations, take care of buying all the wine and beer, and anything else needed and to all the volunteers who helped both before and after the event! Awesome job! Also, I'm embarrassed to admit that we forgot two special people in passing out Cat Herder awards! Dave and Kelly Chrisman (NAVIGTR) who worked so hard on putting together all those games at the picnic this year and led everyone in. Yours is in the mail!
Thank you!
Merry Christmas Everyone and thanks for coming!

Great Pix, Great Food, Great Folks, One VERY HOT JCW (Congratulations on that one) and a Great Time.
I am however concerned about Mrs. Claus. Seems like I have seen her with several different Santas over the years. No telling what is going on at the North Pole in the off season...

As usual, the group of volunteers that showed up to help with decorating and setting up tables was excellent! You folks know how to throw a Christmas party. Although I was pretty preoccupied with taking delivery of our new Mini I did manage to see a few folks and wish them well for the Christmas Season.
The Elves at work.  Our intrepid videographer setting up for the show.  Everyone helped.  Jared, our Motoring Adviser, delivering our Mini. Santa is happy  . |

Who was the other lucky person to get a new Mini? In my fog and excitement I didn't realize that another Mini went to a good home!!

I thought that was theirs but wasn't sure! What a rocketship, looking for Innersteller Space!! I was barely there, kind of foggy brained and tired, but I WAS there! Very fun car, although I wish I could have ordered the car with AS Tires; not possible with the BBK, oh well. Looks like I will be selling some Bridgestone RunFlats. Stephen |

Great food, decorations, entertainment, prizes, conversations, awesome party, thank you so much PSMINI family.
 TWO new MINIs went home, ( SMOG-2 & Karin & Karen) Santa's favorites by far! By the way if I'm not mistaken I think Karin & Karen's MINI was Winston in the NW Food Drive Video talking to the Porsche!
Can't wait to motor with you in 2011!

I can't seem to find my MINI Mania discount card. It must have gotten lost during herding up the kids.
Are more of these available (or the information contained therein)?

My apologies for a delayed feedback.... The first descriptive word that comes to mind is "WOW"! Susan - I loved the centerpieces you made. I was thrilled to be one of the lucky ones that got to take one home. Thank you!
Ed - You did a fantastic job on the video you created as usual. Your videography talents are amazing! Stephen & Lee - Congrats on your new MINI S. Karin & Karen - Wow! I had no idea what a beauty of a JCW was hiding under that cover. What a SHOCKING surprise! That really electrified the party when that was shared. Please add another "thank you" to Richard and Seattle MINI. Thanks so much for the donation of 3 MINIs for a weekend. Who were the lucky winners again? Unfortunately, I don't have any pics to share... I guess I was too busy and forgot but thanks to Kurt, Calvin, Stephen, Genie, and all those who have shared photos... It's as if I'm still there at the party! Great shots!

The party was FABULOUS! Steve and I had a fun time decorating beforehand and the cleaning up afterwards went very fast with the many elves that hung out afterwards to help tidy up. 
It's sitting on our dining room table at this very moment and has been enjoyed by some recent dinner guests (Gina, Stephen & Lee "SMOG-2", and a retired FF buddy & his wife). 
I wish I could convince my hubby to buy a second MINI. Maybe I'd better add it to my Christmas wish list. I can believe in miracles can't I? 
It's such a gorgeous MINI. I love the black/red combo. It's very sharp. I'm so envious... 
I suppose that means you'll be heading to AMVIV to show that baby off? I could use your input for the MINI caravan down to Las Vegas: http://www.psmini.org/forum/topic6800_page1.html
