Mother's Day Recommendations from My Big Day

5/5/2017

It's just around the corner... and if you don't have a regular tradition with your mom, we've composed some ideas and our own stories about how we celebrate with our moms. Whether you are a mom, have a mom, or have someone in your life who is like a mother to you... all moms deserve to be celebrated.

Enjoy some thoughts, advice and recommendations from the My Big Day planning team!

My mom loves to garden and we've always been outdoor adventure buds growing up (and to this day)! Growing up we would often go to the garden store in town on Mother's Day or the day before. My brother and I would each pick out our favorite flower then we would go home and spend the day outside planting flowers together. I think it's a great way to spend quality time as a family and we always enjoyed it as kids! Other years we would go to Powell Gardens, which was the big flower gardens near town.

Now, I don't get to see my mom on Mother's Day so I often send her cards with little notes and promises that "this card is good for...." and fill in the blank. Usually it's a voucher for either a trip somewhere, a day planting flowers or hiking, or something else we've always loved to do together when I get to see her next.

Here's a picture of my mom and I when she came out to visit once and used one of her "this card is good for" cards I made her in college!

-Katie

One of our favorite things to do is get up early, get ready together, and go to a Mother's day brunch. It is usually a day spent eating good food and sitting in the sun (if nice enough)! We also like getting pedicures together!

I love my mom as she is a hard working business woman. She has provided for my family my whole life.

It's a very special day for my mother and I. It's the simple things that end up meaning the most when life is stressful and clouded by work. All she wants do to on this day is spend it with me relaxing, and sometimes that's the best gift she could ask for. (Also, Mimosas)

-Victoria

I've always heard that you should wait to plant your flowers and gardens until Mother's Day weekend in Colorado (because we could always have that late season snow or hard freeze). My mom doesn't live here, but I've spent a couple different Mother's Days planting flowers and doing yard work with Anna's Mom, Colleen, and Dave's Mom, Sue.
Maybe I'll plant my own flowers this year?

-Carrie

How about taking mom on a weekend getaway where she doesn't have to cook or clean? Spend some quality time with your mom at Sylvan Dale’s annual Mother’s Day Celebration. With a bed and breakfast located right on site. After quality brunch, enjoy the day horseback riding, fishing or hiking. Estes Park is just a short drive away too!
This year’s brunch menu has everything from smoked salmon, to quiche-lorraine, brisket, chicken pesto Alfredo, tortilla encrusted Tilapia, ranch-made macaroni and cheese, assorted salads, fruit, and fresh baked breads and desserts.
Seating times are at 10:30a.m., 11a.m., 11:30a.m., 2p.m. and 2:30p.m. For reservations, call 970-667-3915. Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch 2329 North County Road 31D (Loveland)

My entire childhood, my sister and I would wake up early and our dad would help us make breakfast in bed for our mom. It was always something fancy and extra special. We'd come into the bedroom with a tray that had flowers, breakfast, juice & coffee and our homemade gifts. Our mom would pretend to be surprised, but she knew what we were up to. There is no way we were quiet chefs!

After breakfast we would go to church and/or spend the day together as a family doing whatever mom wanted to do (which for one day a year was NOT cooking).

As a mom now, being appreciated and simply spending time with my family is the best way for me to celebrate Mothers' Day! Going to a new restaurant, getting a bouquet of flowers that I normally wouldn't buy for myself, or being gifted a day of relaxation (pedicure, massage, facial, NO errands) all sound amazing to me! I can't wait until my son is old enough to make me handmade cards. I know I will just melt.

-Christine

I am such a mommy's girl. I would do just about anything with her. Some of my favorite things to do with my mom are, get coffee together, get our nails done together, see a show (preferably a musical) or just walk around Hobby Lobby/ Target together!
We always have such fun adventures spending way too long in those two stores together dreaming about buying just anything we wanted to, or just actually picking up stuff for crafts to work on together!

-Lynzee

My mom is hands down my best friend, it has just been her and I since I was 6 so we're very close. I love going shopping with her, even if it's just grocery shopping, because it's quality time together, which we usually don't have due to our busy schedules. She always convinces me to get the shirt that I can't decide on, or makes me try on things that I would never think I would like but I turn out loving it. She knows me better than I know myself and I'm so thankful for her.

For Mother's Day I always make sure to buy my mom flowers and bring her out to dinner, I feel like it's a necessity for the day!

When it comes to gifts I usually spoil her with a shopping day or a mani-pedi day. I've always thought that shopping for my mom has been hard so I like to bring her to places that she's usually goes to and let her pick out what she likes and then I'll buy it for her! It's always a fun time buying her a few new outfits to wear that I know she likes because she picked them out.

-Makenzie

My favorite thing to do with my mom is to grocery shop together. As weird as it sounds, grocery shopping is something that is so simple that we get the greatest pleasure out of. We get to have quality time together and catch up on the things we haven't talked to in awhile. Whenever I have the time I offer to go to the grocery store with her and we have endless laughs and gossip to talk about. Every trip we have we pick out a special treat that we can have later that night. Grocery shopping is definitely something that I look forward to with her!

Some things that we also enjoy doing that I recommend in Colorado is hiking, off road driving, and camping! It's leaves for great family time and a lot of fun!

-Kasey

My favorite thing to do with my mom is getting to disconnect from our phones and spend uninterrupted time together, whether that is in the car on a long drive, at home, or out to eat. I love being able to surprise her with a treat or do something small to make her day easier. My sisters and I like to take the day to help my mom plant flowers in her garden on Mother's Day too to celebrate spring.
