Plans for Mothers day?

[sparks19]

WEll unfortunately I don't get to see my mom this mothers day but I did send her a gift and a nice card. sent her some earrings I know she has been wanting really bad lol.

I know mothers day is actually on Sunday but I'm getting my day on Saturday lol.

Brian and Hannah are taking me to this ROCKING bead shop about 30-40 minutes from here that I've only been to once but have been dying to go back. and then we are going to P.F Changs for dinner. I am in LOVE with their lettuce wraps but again it's about 30 minutes away so it's not somewhere we really go very often.

and then Sunday will just be a nice calm day where we can just all be together and if the weather is nice maybe we can go to the park or something. but with the way the rain has been lately I'm not holding out hope for that lol.

can't wait. what a perfect weekend.

What are your plans?

If things go as planned, my brother and I will be taking our mom out for an early dinner on Sunday to a quiet local restaurant. I am going to try to make her a special cake on Saturday.

My two kids, age 19 and 22, will be at Myrtle Beach, SC with their father on vacation. So nice of him to plan his vacation over Mother's Day weekend.

My mom is in Winnipeg visiting my aunt who just got out of hospital - she'll be helping out with groceries and stuff.

I had a card I was going to hide and put in her carry-on bag...but it fell out of my jacket as I was pushing the baggage cart....OH WELL. She's now not allowed to open it until she gets to the Peg, so it will be sort of a surprise...lol

She'll be back Tuesday, and I hope to celebrate with her after that.

My kids will be taking me out to dinner Sunday evening I may even treat myself with a trip to the local bakery to get a slice of cake.

Sounds like you will get two days of celebrating.

We are going to my brothers house (he lives right next door to my parents). My SIL's mom will be there too. This will be the first time since Bruce and I have been together (6 years) that we will spend Mother's Day with my mom. We usually always go to his moms. When us kids were teenagers our "gift" to mom on moms day was to leave her alone. LOL But it's about time to celebrate again.

I will get to spend Saturday with middle son, daughter-in-love, two granddaughters and sister-in-love - who is mom to hubby's wife. Get that? It sounds like the girls have surprises planned for the two grandmas and we may be going to see some baby farm animals. It should be a really nice day! Then Sunday will be more relaxing with church and probably stay home to work on the garden. Normally I try to get flowers out planted that weekend and this year will probably be the same. I am glad not to be going anywhere on Sunday because I don't like crowds Mother's Day can be *any* day!!!

On Sunday morning at church, baby Malcom will be dedicated to the Lord. Then, we'll go somewhere for lunch, although that is a pretty normal Sunday thing for us. (It may even be fast food, just to avoid the crowds.) We are planning a family day on Monday, since my hubby is off work that day. Not sure what we are doing yet.

We will be going to my mum-in-law's place, and are all contributing something for brunch. I'll be bringing a small version of the attached - coffee ring!

Yup - family recipe/tradition. I'll have to ponder a bit and figure out how to type out the instructions, as Ma's recipe ends with "then you know what to do" - which is true of all her children (and grandchildren) but not of strangers!

The boy (my affectionate term for my son) took me to PF Chang's when I visited him in CA. I fell in love w/the lettuce wraps, too. Yum!

I'll probably clean the house or maybe go shopping or something. I won't get to be w/the boy this year so I don't want to feel sorry for myself because he'll be home for a visit next week. We'll celebrate MD and his birthday then, too.

Have a wonderful MD and maybe you'll find some beautiful beads and make some new jewelry, eh?

Happy Mothers' day to all the PT moms and their moms, too.

[sparks19]

well hopefully I am all better by tomorrow. went out to dinner last nigth and I ate some bad chicken so I am feeling pretty sorry today. hope it only lasts one day.

Sounds like everyone has lovely and relaxing plans. Sorry for all the moms who can't be with their kids and kids who can't be with their moms. it sucks. I'm looking forward to spending the day with my family but I do miss my mommy.

'm sure I will find MANY lovely beads LOL I got my present from my MIL today. does she know me or what? I got a hanging jewelry/bead organizer lol it's AWESOME and much needed since I have outgrown my 9 drawer organizer lol.

Well my mum will be in the Gold Coast Australia, soaking up the rays on mothers day,i went over to her house last night and spent some time before they left for their two week holiday,i gave her some pretty pink avon slippers and nice silver mesh gift bag filled with avon hand creams and small gift wrapped box of chocolates., and a card which had a black kitty on it.

My daughter will be working on mothers day and son is in Auckland, so it will just be hubby and i, however son is paying for our lunch out for mothers day present and his Dad's birthday present, we are going to a place i have always wanted to go, the Gostiana,which do a buffet lunch on Sunday's,they have a lovely roaring fire going, so i am looking forward to it, as it is rather cold down under at the moment,will be a challenge to as i am on Weight Watchers ,and have no intention of breaking my programme, so will be eating sensibly but enjoying myself too.

Hope everyone has a great day with their mothers, children, fur children,and let us all remember those who have lost their mothers,may they think of the beautiful memories they shared with them.
