Jenna - LOL didn't those oreo's make you tired

Keep up the great work everyone!!

DH bought me 6 Atkins endulge candy bars last night( 2 net carbs for the caramel nut chew *my fav* and 3 net carbs for the coconut choco one * I love coconut too lol*) and oh my I cant wait to sink one in my mouth today . I did want one last night sooooo sooo bad but I didn't want to take the chance in going over my 20 carbs for the day so I drank water instead. I was really really good yesterday at our mothers day get-together. I ate 2 sirloin burgers w/o the bun with cheddar cheese, onion, lettuce and tomato. I had 2 different types of salad, one greens and the other was made with red,green peppers, red onion, mozzarella cheese, black olives with dressing. We got to bring a lot of leftovers home too. For dessert everyone had a ice cream cake from DQ, and I brought Lemon Jello and a homemade protein bar, which was sooo good.

We walked to the park around the corner from Dh's GM's and DH and I went down the slide together LMAO while the IL's pushed Alyssa on the swings it was just so much fun to get out as a family. Then we walked into the cemetery next to the park and I wanted to look for my Grandfathers grave( my moms father who died back in 1970 from brain tumor), also looked at both of dh's GF's graves as a family. I thought I remembered where my GF's grave was but since its been 3 years since I visited I looked and looked . I found it just when I was going to give up, so that was nice and I should remember now where it is and noticed landmarks for next time . DH said Alyssa freaked him out and started running off in the cemetery calling "baby", and you know what they say, ghosts show themselves more to kids, there was nobody insight too . DH has went "ghost hunting" at night a few times and takes pictures in the cemetery's LOL, then I upload them to the pc and we look for anything weird or orbs, shadows or lights. We love a good ghost story too since we are horror movies freaks!! He wants me to go ghost hunting sometime with him when the MIL has Alyssa on a sleepover LOL. That should be fun .

The family is still sleeping and I'm going to go get breakfast started and get our picnic packed for around lunch to go to the park. Yes I'm making breakfast on Mother's day, DH ISN'T the best of a cook LOL.
