2 to 3 minute sighting of bright oval shaped object.moving south.

I was in my backyard talking to my sister, when she told my to look up. It took me about a minute before I saw it. it looked to be at roughly 7000 feet. It looked to be a flattened oval about 3/4 of an inch long. It was moving south at a constant speed. It was a bright white color and appeared to have a highly reflective surface. There was no indication of wings, contrails, engine sounds or strobe lights visible on it. it went into a cloud bank and was still visible for a few seconds before it was gone from sight. i have had weather spotter training and a fair knowledge of aircraft.
