Guest Post || Susanna Clemmer

 

 

Good Morning everyone!!
I'm here with a guest post from my friend Susanna (Susie for short!). Susie and I have been pen pals for a little over 2 years. We recently met when she was down for her Great Grandma's funeral and we had a great time learning to know each other better!
Susie is going to tell you a little bit about her & her dog raising/dog sitting business:

Me & Susanna

Can you tell a little bit about yourself? ...

    I am a fourteen year-old girl, one of the six children of Wendell and Lisa Clemmer. Ultimately, I am a child of the King, and I live striving to please Him. I enjoy serving others (that is the spiritual gift that God blessed me with) and sharing the Gospel where God gives me the opportunity.

Where do you live? ....
                     Auburn, Maine
 

A few of your hobbies? ...

    I enjoy many things, so you probably don't want me to list them all! Here are just a few that stick out to me above others: Kayaking, swimming, baking with Daddy, fishing, writing, and spending time with our dogs. :-)

Your favorite verse? ...

    I like Philippians 4:13. "I can do all things through Christ Who gives me strength." There is no limit to what we can do when Christ is in the center of it all!

Now about my dogs:
We own and raise Bernese Mountain dogs. Below you will find pictures and names of each of our dogs and our one precious puppy. Also, we sometimes puppy sit and right now we are puppy sitting some black and yellow labs! (Pictures at the end).

Cheyenne is the sweet-looking dog just laying there by the tree. (She is my very favorite dog of them all!) She has a very thin strip of white on her face and no white on her front paws.



This big 'ole guy with has perfect symmetrical  markings is Toronto.



Toronto loves rolling around on his back!



 The little Berner puppy that I'm holding is Lucea. There's also a picture of her sleeping on her side above. (Isn't she adorable?!!?!)

 ^^the puppies we are taking care of right now^^

Thanks so much for doing this guest post Susanna!! I enjoyed working with you to get it together :)
Have a great day everyone!! :)

How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. Psalms 36:7


《hay fort》

Hey guys! It seems like I just posted and I did, but I'm back again!
We got this idea to build a hay fort, so build a hay fort we did! here are some pictures for you to enjoy:

I realized after I put my pictures on the computer that most of them are blurry. Sorry! iPhones just don't take quality photos =(

XOXO, Shalom

w.v. vacation and fundraiser.

Hey Folks!!!
It seems like a long time since I blogged. Life has been really busy around here...we've had different things going and lots of vacations! So be prepared for a big post and lots of pictures :)


• first off was the cabin with the Martin family. I don't have pictures except a selfie with Heidi and my pen pal from Maine who spent  Friday night with us. It was a blast though!! That was June 24-26.

  

  Sorry about the bad quality, but Heidi is an awesome cousin and I am glad for the little time we get to spend together :)

• July 10-13 found us in West Virginia with the Sauder family. Since I don't have any cousins my age, I took Maria (cousin on Martin side) with and we had a double blast. We got to ski, swim A LOT, rope swing into the water  and hang out with my amazing family. Chad & Jo are home on furlough for 10 weeks (They are currently having a layover in China, on their way back =( ), so that was especially fun to have them there and be able to spend time with them. Oh and did I mention, we go to a cabin by a HUGE lake right which is right by a big power plant. The power plant uses the water to run its huge plant, so therefore the water is warm. Where we swim at the dock, it isn't bath tub water, but believe me, it feels just pretty good, really good if it is chilly outside! One night we swam very close to the place where the hot water comes out of the plant, and that was like a hot tub. You almost couldn't be in it long or you would feel funny. It sure felt good though!!!

  Another view with lots of people!

• We came home and then it was the fundraiser for Chad & Jo. We planned a car, truck, motorcycle show to raise money for them. It was held here on our farm and everything went amazing. We raised a huge sum of money for them and overall, everything went very smoothly!
