Mother's Day... what are you doing for yours?
With our move last weekend, I forgot it was Mother's Day until yesterday. What are you doing for your mom?? Im stuck on ideas.... I don't want to do flowers and we need to keep price down and be able to mail whatever we do....

Re: Mother's Day... what are you doing for yours?
MIL will probably get a Bordine's gift card, no idea yet for my mom. She'll be in town on Tuesday so I'm not going to mail her gift but it also gives me a few extra days to figure it out.
I'm hoping Jason does or gets me something for Mother's Day ...
We are having brunch at noon, then I will get the rest of the day to spend mother's day with DH & DS.

I finally got my Mom's gift in the mail yesterday. I got her a grandmother's baby book for archiving memories.
On Sunday, we'll just end up going to my MIL's house for the afternoon like always.

Is this rack for medals or just what she'll use it for? May I see it? My BIL does tri's and I think he'd like something like that.
Maybe. I'm not expecting anything.
I?m buying my Mom perfume and a hanging plant for my MIL. I usually get something for my Aunt to but this year?NO ideas yet. Humph!
I got my Mom a gift certificate for a massage. DH is in charge of whatever he wants to get his Mom.
We won't see either of our Mom's on Sunday. For one, we're having a delayed 5-year anniversary for us on Sunday since we're stuck working all day and night today. My Mom lives in GR so we won't be driving there. DH's sister is a nutter who made major drama over us wanting to see his Mom last year on Mother's Day, so he'll just see her some other day.
We're planning on going to my parents' house for an early dinner on Sunday. No idea when or if we'll even see DH's Mom. I pretty much leave that planning up to him.
As far as gifts go, my brother and I split the cost of a lawn sculpture that my Mom wanted. No idea if we'll get something for DH's mom, but I'm assuming maybe a little plant of some sort. Who knows.
I am almost willing to bet money that DH/Emma will get me nothing. My Mom has already given me some fun Mother's Day presents though.
Which is?
Sorry. Just saw this response Tarah...
She gave me a really cute burgundy zip-up hoodie that is super lightweight but really warm and snuggly. Perfect for cooler summer nights. She also gave me a super pretty yellow rose plant that I can plant outside.
