And 2012 comes to a close...

Another good year has come and gone. 
Well, we actually have one more day but I probably won't post anything until next year. 
This year was another busy one for sure. 
My baby girl got married 11-11-2011 and moved out. 
 Her getting married was bittersweet for me as I was happy for her new life but hated seeing her leave. I decided to start focusing on my business Bunderosa Queen to avoid the whole empty nest syndrome. I now sell at River City Trading Post in Jenks, Little Bit of Country in Sapulpa and am a vendor at Junk Hippy Roadshow and Vintage Market Days. I have sold almost everything so it is time to start fresh for 2013!

Our year really gets started when the ground gets warm enough to start planting .Hubby decided to put his garden out a little earlier this year since we have been in a drought for 2 years. He did well until the high heat kicked in. I was able to put up a lot of good food thanks to his awesome gardening abilities. Also, to date he has trapped 63 gophers. For Christmas I made him and his Gopherbuster buddies these t-shirts. hehe!

 Hubs liked the shirt. He just hides his enthusiasm well.
 LOL!
Our grandsons absolutely love helping Pop set out traps and catch those little underground demons. They also love digging in the dirt in Pops garden. They are his little buddies, for sure.

We celebrated our 34th wedding anniversary June 10th and took a wonderful trip to the Smoky Mountains.
 Bless his heart my hubby drove the whole way there and back. We made a lot of stops along the way.
We had such a good time!
 Here we are in Nashville

In August we gained a daughter-in-law!
 My son married beautiful Kerina. It was a lovely, lovely wedding.

October 27th we had our annual Bunderosa Fall Bash. Hubby built his annual inferno that one could see for miles and miles. Haha! It was a chilly night and the fire felt good. Lots of good food, fun, family and friends. I could kick myself for not taking any pictures but I was too busy being Little Miss Hostess with the Mostest!

  This month I also started selling at River City Trading Post.

 November was Aaron and Amanda's birth month....not birthdays...it is birth month with those two.

Our November Birthday Brats!

 I did my first Vintage Market Days which lasted 3 days. 
I had a great time and hope to do more shows with them.
Diane at Little Bit of Country gave me a room to all to myself for Bunderosa Queen. I am loving that!
  December I did another Junk Hippy Roadshow. I had the best time and met alot of new people. I had several ladies come to my booth that bought from me in June when I did the first JHR. Also met a lady that bought from me via Facebook. It was exciting to have them want to meet me in person. I felt like a celebrity! Haha! J/K

Our family had a wonderful Christmas this year! All of my children and their families came Christmas Eve. We had the best time! I love and adore each one of them. 
 The whole gang!
 My kiddos
Our monkeys!

That's all, folks!
Happy New Year!
