My Mom is a PAIN to shop for so I am going with sentimentality. I am making her a new mousepad for work designed by me through photoshop and printed on shutterfly with a collage of my brother and I being our goofy selves and then taking her out to dinner. She likes pictures and I figure its mroe desk friendly than more framed photos.

That is a GREAT idea. One year, i got my sister and brother together for a christmas photo with Santa at the mall, and she loved it. It's really not about what you give.

Good idea!

I love this idea as well.I spoke to FH and we decided we're going to take our moms together to a really cute mediterranean restaurant where there is live entertainment. We're also planning on purchasing 2 orders of flowers and have the employers hand it to them during dessert for Mother's day. I think they'll be thrilled.

Thanks girls. She always liked our handmade gifts so this is still sorta handmade. I think she will get a kick out of it.

we're going out to brunch, we've been doing that the last few years and she really likes it. sometimes I throw in a 'stocking stuffer' type of gift like a scented candle or a CD I know she really wants.
