Top 10 Mother's Day Gifts

   It is almost Mother's Day!! I always seem to have a hard time finding a good gift for Mom. When you ask mothers rarely say something they really want, or if they do it is something simple and you feel they deserve so much more. So today I am going to share with you my top 10 gift ideas that I have found and thought of for this year!

Just In Time For Valentine's Day

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, at Pre K we had our party yesterday and the schools are having theirs this afternoon. Now while we don't celebrate with extravagant gifts, we do enjoy a day together with great food. I am looking forward to a long weekend with my hubby and a day of hanging out, going on a hike, eating at a new restaurant and a home cooked meal with a movie.

I think the day is overly commercialized and superficial. I think it is fun for kids to have a day to talk about love and friendship. I like the day as an extra day to shower your spouse or significant other with love. That does not mean you need to spend a lot of money, you just need some heart felt gestures. Like a home cooked meal or simply just hanging out together.

Here are a few Valentine's post I did last month. Yes you still have time to do these! Enjoy ( Click the Picture)

Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas for Him

   

   Valentine’s Day is getting close; how it is already February I’m not sure I feel like December never happened.  With the day approaching I started to think about what exactly I wanted to get Hubby this year. We don’t typically give each other a large gift for Valentines, we do though have a nice dinner together, watch a movie and just enjoy our time together.  I have been known to give food as a gift most years that we’ve been together, such as cupcakes, cookies, pies and other things that I thought he would like. I have gotten flowers, a teddy bear, cards and possibly a necklace (we can’t remember the occasion it was given to me).

Gift card for a spa treatment, nails or hair appointment- we love going and getting pampered but usually won’t spend the money on a regular basis

Handwritten note- a sweet love note is always appreciated

Gourmet Spices- if you are shopping for a girl who loves to cook or likes to experiment with new flavors. A spice set would be great this website has lots of different kinds. I love the gourmet salt set. http://www.spicesinc.com/p-814-gourmet-salt-sampler-spice-set.aspx
