Memorial Weekend

Last weekend we went to the lake, it was a lot of fun. For those of you who have already read Meghann's blog I did not drive the truck off the wall. Our driveway is small and it is on a hill and there were 5 cars there. Matt said I had enough room and that I didn't need to reverse again to get more room. Well he was wrong. It had been raining and it was wet with mud and clay, and the truck got stuck. It was all over within 15 minutes.. My family is full of exaggerators. Considering Clare and Meghann have both crashed dad's car, and I have never crashed a car I think I should be commended for only getting the truck stuck. Anyway...

The rest of the weekend was fun. It was just us Cosgrove's and Matt. We just sat around ate lots of food, had cocktails, played games and had an overall good time. Matt and I went into town and walked around on Saturday. Yankton has a really cute downtown. We then went to the Lewis and Clark Visitor's Center because Matt is a nerd and he has never been there. I will post a picture of the dam. It is pretty neat.. Well here are the pictures.. oh and enjoy the picture of Meghann.. it is stellar..(sorry meghann it is too funny)



Here is Gavin's Point Dam.. Take all the Dam Pictures you want

T.C. (Dad) in his usual spot hanging out on the back of the boat. [Matt and dad were the only two able to brave the water.. let's just say they both had the look of shock on their faces when they came to the surface.. the water was 60 degrees]



So Happy all the Time...

The Lean -To

Well I know I haven't posted in forever, so I thought I would just let everyone know what is up cause I am sure everyone is curious. I just finished my second year of law school and I still pretty much dislike it... One year left.. Thank god cause I am getting pretty sick of being broke.

Well anyway, so this weekend Matt and I are heading to the lake. We like to refer to our wonderful cabin the "Lean-To". It is a little shacky, but we love it!! What a good time to drive 4 and half hours with about $4.00 a gallon gas, but it is my favorite place in the world. It is a good thing we are people who just drive the boat out of the marina and then float for 5 hours. If we were real boaters it would be ungodly expensive!! But since we just like to float, eat, and drink a little, we're good.

Since I know everyone would like to see pictures and my mom is really is on top of those things I will post some when we get back. It will just be the fam hanging out. The weather is suppose to nice. I hope everyone has a nice memorial day!! I know we will!!



Matt last summer on the boat.. Once again trying to be funny
