Mother's Day Gift Guide

Mother's Day is just around the corner! I always love Mother's Day and celebrating with my sweet little babes who give me the reason to celebrate. I also love celebrating with my momma and MIL. This year I'm planning to host a light brunch at my house on Saturday with our moms, then save Sunday just for my little family. So while I was working on my brunch menu, I started thinking of some fun ideas for gifts.

What are some of the best gifts you've received and/or given?
 
My mom's birthday is always VERY close to Mother's Day, so I typically combine her gifts. She's always preferred hanging plants and/or mani/pedi gift cards. (Or the gift of TIME.)

My favorite gift to receive is anything handmade. And I especially love when my kids use their hand/foot prints to make something (not a shock, I know). Every year I ask my hubs to take the kids to the local pottery shop and have them paint me something. I haven't been so lucky yet (although my son is still pretty young), but maybe this will be the year! Ha! And maybe it's b/c my kids are still young, but for most of my past "Mother's Day's", my hubs has just given me a gift from himself (jewelry, flowers, etc) and the kids have made me cards. I also LOVE fresh flowers (but that's not a shock either). My favorite gift so far would probably have to be my skinny gold bar necklace with my kids' names stamped on it. I love it so much and wear it almost every day! 

But all gifts aside, I truly just love spending time with my kiddos for Mother's Day. They are the greatest gift of all!
