For the first time, both my mom and my MIL will be here to celebrate Mother's Day (my MIL lives 16 hrs away, so this is very rare). We will be celebrating next weekend together. My MIL is very laid back, is much older, and doesn't need or want anything. My mom, on the other hand, is much younger, and loves to go all out on gifts and holidays.
Not only do I have no idea what to get either one of them, I feel like since they are here together and will open their gifts in front of each other, the gifts should be similar in value and thought.
The last thing either one of them needs is another picture frame or candle or trinket.
Can you tell me what you are getting your moms? Maybe it would give me an idea for mine. Thanks!
Re: Mother's Day gift ideas - what are you doing?
It may sound horrible but we will just be sending cards this year. We have to save up our money to buy diapers for a newborn! Both of our parents will understand.
We did Shutterfly books for xmas with our wedding photos and they arrived pretty quickly once we ordered!
I got Brag books from vera for MIL and grandmother in law....and they LOVED THEM!!!!!! i already sent them
My MIL lives 10 hours away, so I contact her local Edible Arrangement store and have them deliver a fruit bouquet to her. She loves it! Who wouldn't love fruit dipped in chocolate. Yummmm
ETA: Just found a coupon code for 10% off for Mother's day! It's mday0511
