Fun, productive day!

<p>Howdy partners! ;) I ended up sleeping in Sunday morning due to all the <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/07/busy-saturday.html">storm interruptions Saturday night</a>. I’m sure I would have slept longer, but a phone call woke me up around 10am! I could hardly believe it!</p> <p>We ended up meeting up with Kyle’s family for brunch. His <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/07/family-friday.html">sister and her hubby from Chicago</a> were going to head home today. </p> <p>We went to a buffet. I’m <strong>NOT</strong> a fan! I was able to at least start off with a few good choices! I had some <strong>pineapple</strong>, <strong>strawberries</strong>, and an <strong>egg white omelet</strong> with salsa for <strong>3 points</strong>. <a><img alt="DSC08008" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEig2-4a_sISMGgm9lBa5ybZNXOBgzTyVY_9NdMEPIUA4i9trs-t-vA1oJu0pOWgkdJFgK-NP1w4H52tz4jmUtZ6ahcribO5bnjK2ngzj_K8Vy5fGozhjSGc2s3qZyl4eLmLjxDv3urXgk1E/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC08008" width="404" /></a></p> <p>My next plate I completely forgot to photograph. I had <strong>2 slices</strong> of <strong>french toast</strong>  with <strong>sf syrup</strong> and some <strong>breakfast potatoes</strong> for <strong>7 points</strong>. </p> <p>And this is where it goes downhill….I finished brunch off with <strong>ice cream</strong> and <strong>apple pie</strong>. I looked up the calories when I got home and figured <strong>8 points</strong> for my desert. <a><img alt="DSC08009" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9r2i2KJz3awMRPOg6cIOphGPLoKJETGtdYl4qmC5YDM3I_CffprMkPNY-bGpDyvsmhx_djGB9VD7T4C_9ueJldAnx_aoRDojfNEU8HaMgVXjBJTIVPg9hYvAoZKzg8zmoTtOjYcfIM4Qz/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC08009" width="404" /></a></p> <p>They headed home after brunch.

We detailed our SUV for the majority of the afternoon. We are selling it and upgrading to a Nissan Armada or a Tahoe! I love a fresh, clean, shiny car!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLztk_ThT0wpig21iqVn8BuzjwWtPja5Edy6G6s_9TkGlOwrq30Sj7Al2GCaGcebiRRbp-sEkgxIVPBxM3eHf_9e5K871f_19o06SHXk-iNsqEGI8Y2-Bq85I6gNOld8muvdLelEHB_r1a/s1600-h/DSC08016%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC08016" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnJL2Bpt4kh__OK3JCAN4wiOaAkzuGuOjp0-2fE6fZ-OLqf514EAkzrOIegBNID3E_BGswAt-XB0iUbwwxl8oz7SedY1q1WEVqkZrXyGO66LllKeFMKf0xxVgZ5Ifzd42fVoOVv18C55Aa/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC08016" width="404" /></a></p> <p>When we finished detailing the car I snacked on some <strong>chips and salsa</strong> while cooling off for <strong>6 points</strong>. </p> <p>We headed to a <strong>2 year old birthday party</strong>! <strong>Mateo</strong> is our neighbor’s little guy, we just love him!
