My Summer Beach Bum Got a Job!

Just thought that I'd let you know that Scott has a new job. He will be the new general manager(new position) for Zacho Sports Center. He's really excited about it, it's just what he likes to do and it should be a "fun" industry to work in. He will be working for the son of his former boss at AOS. They are just as excited to have him work there as he is. He'll be starting Oct. 5.

Off to Ireland

Hope I am doing this the correct way. Mom here saying Good-Bye to all for a couple weeks.

Take care everyone and don't forget to pray for me and you! God BLess, Mom

Formerly Jim Peck's

Hello Yall,
Eric and I took a vacation up at the cabin not too long ago and we went to Jim Pecks one day. Well, now its Wildlife Reserve something, but it is still loads of animal fun. Eric's favorite are the goats, while I enjoyed the big kitties. Happy Blogging!

Mom is on the net!

I don't have a tricky line like some persons I know, but think this is such a cool idea! No pics from here, but wondering how long it took for Eric to create those marvelous faces??!!!

Whiskey Cake Makes Everyone Happy

Judy sent the recipe for one of the tastiest sweets at camping weekend - Whiskey Cake. Remember, plese enjoy Whiskey Cake in moderation, and friends don't let friends drive after eating Whiskey Cake.

Whiskey Cake

Mix together:

1 oz. whiskey
4 eggs
1 pkg. yellow cake mix
1 pkg. (3 oz.) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 c. milk
½ c. oil

Poor batter into a greased bundt pan. Bake at 325˚ for 30 –40 minutes.

Shortly before cake is done, boil together (don’t overcook) in a small saucepan on stove:

½ c. butter
¾ c. sugar
½ c. whiskey

Pour the hot glaze over the hot cake while still in the bundt pan, making sure to get it all around the edges. (I usually poke a few holes in the cake with a toothpick or skewer before pouring on top). When cool, remove from pan.

Official Joke Selection of Camping Weekend 2005

While the joke field this year was a little slimmer than in past years, the Official Selection has to be a classic that was retold with smashing success. Eugene, a frequent joke champion, told this year's Official Joke Selection.

A daddy mole, a mommy mole, and a baby mole were digging through some tunnels. All of a sudden, the dad mole stops, sniffs around, and says, "Huh. I think I smell McDonald's." The mommy mole also stops, sniffs around, and says, "You know what, I think I smell McDonald's too." The baby mole stops too and says, "Really? 'Cause all I smell is molasses!"

Camping Weekend Officially Rocks Again

On August 5th, 6th, and 7th, the Gisvold clan packed all of their lawn chairs and a boatload full of food and convened at Pine View Campground in Fort McCoy. Although a few party-poopers left early, a wonderful time was had by all. The campground was gorgeous, with a sand-bottomed stream just behind the campground, and the bathrooms didn't even smell too bad.

Highlights definitely included the morning and evening bugle calls, and the strong relationship Max was constantly trying to establish with Ole. Emily's recounting of her trip to Europe entertained all and allowed the family to live vicariously through her recent world-traveling experiences.

Overall, another memorable camping weekend for the books!

If you have any other highlights, please email them to rasmuses@hotmail.com.
