TGGRRR (Ali)

Don't forget to RSVP here if you're joining us for lunch

I put you in for the morning, I literally just readjusted all the times and forgot them. It's all in the top post These times are all estimates as he could run early or late. You never know what's going to happen

I'm checking with Randy for timing. I allowed 1 hour for the tints which are usually 45 minutes so I might be able to move a few around and pop you in around 9:30ish

I've been updating the first post with the schedule. Please check it and let me know if there are any issues

Just got home from Williamsburg, sorry we can't make it

I adjusted all tint tines in accordance with instruction from Randy about times needed. I padded them just a bit too. Haemish should be very happy now

We have a few weeks to brainstorm our costumes for the parade. It's going to be nuts trying to organize but I think we can pull together and do it First pick a Christmas Character and update your RSVP with the name of your character. I just did that for River Then we can chat here about how to pull that off. I'm planning to use a bunch of white polyester batting to make her look all snowy, then add poster board eyes and teeth and icicle lights around the top.

I need to give Randy more details on the front jobs. The dent removals are fine Please update your RSVP with the model of car and what's being tintedtinted. I know it's probably all in the thread but this will make it easier to give Randy the correct info

This gives us the POWER to beat the Jeeps!!! Get it? Power!!! I crack me up It will actually be useful for other stuff too

Like this one? http://www.amazon.com/BESTEK%C2%AE-Outlets-Inverter-Charging-Smartphones/dp/B004MDXS0U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1446766706&sr=8-1&keywords=power+inverter+for+car&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011

Is that what we need to make power from the lighter?

Do it!!!!! :top:

He's still alive?

At dinner tonight most of us were thinking recognizable Holiday characters would be the stars. Melissa is thinking Rudolph I was thinking the abominable snowman We thought maybe Poison ivy could be the grinch or dressed in Holly Berries still We have two cabrios a red and an ice blue and I hear we might have another Countryman joining us in dark blue that will be Jack Frost Still waiting on Sara to see if Minnie is coming I can see Precious being some sort of ice princess and we could fill the red cabrio with fake wrapped boxes like presents or pick a character that isn't Santa

We have 5 cars and room for 10. I will happily back out if there are more that want to participate

We have a table in the back behind the bar

I think I'll make River something icy and blue maybe a Frosty. I could also do a big star theme on her and figure out how to add lights

Melissa might come since we're getting a table I woke up this morning and my Precious Tigger was gone!!! Stolen in the middle of the night. I hear he was out joy riding topless playing loud music :motor:

I wish I could go, we're in Williamsburg this weekend.

That's fine. We're mostly worried about people at the lunch We know we'll get cars that we don't know about and we expect it. Thanks for letting us know though

I think we're getting somewhere!!!! I think Domo would make a great rudolph but I am really bad with coming up with these creative names. Poison Ivy would be a cool Holly Berry River could be Frosty

I found this great list of characters online to add Frosty Jack Frost Candy Cane Snowflake Santa's Little Helper Holly Berry (get it ..hehe) Nutcracker Sugarplum Fairy Scrooge Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, Yet To Come Tiny Tim Little Cindy Lou Who The Grinch Christmas Carol Jingle Bell Little Drummer Boy Ginger Bread Man

The parade theme is Lights, Camera, Christmas!!!! I'm thinking we all find the LED's that you can run from the lighter on the car or run from batteries and dress up our cars If we have walkers then can get those led light suits and cameras and be taking pictures of the MINIs. We can use flashes on the cameras to take pictures like the MINIs are stars. We could even pick some Christmas characters to dress the MINIs up as. But not Santa Rudolph Jack Frost The Grinch Scrooge The Nutcracker Add in some garland and holiday decorations and we're right in the theme What do you guys think?

Sometimes :evil:

BTW if you get there and you see Tigger, that just means Stephanie is there. I couldn't let her drive a Camry while she was visiting. If you see Tigger and River, then you know we're both there
