Ladies - Need Help/Ideas with my Mom's 60th bday!! (a little long)

OK - my mom lives in Florida - back in the winter - DH and I started talking about all my siblings and us taking her for a long weekend to the all-inclusive we went to in Mexico. We are moving this summer and it has just ended up being too difficult to plan for all of us (although that's not to say I wouldn't do something like that belatedly).


I was hoping she would come up to NY around her bday time (end of June) and my thoughts were to throw a nice luncheon for her and her NY friends - but she's working at summer camp and can't come.

I need ideas - my mom will tell you she needs nothing, but deserves the universe! I've done spa things in the past - I just don't have any idea what to do for her and I want it to be special!

Thanks for reading this and if you have any ideas - thank you!!!

What about seeing if you can plan something for her with her girlfriends in Florida? Do you know any of them, or do you have any family down there that can help you?

YOu mean plan a dinner for her florida friends without us there or with us there?


Julz - good idea - we did that for my grandma a few years back! - it's just hard to plan right now.

If you can't get down there at that time, plan something for her with her friends, then you all can surprise her at a later date when you can all get together. This way she'll have fund with her friends and then be really surprised when all of you show up or tell her you're all going away together.

Is there a show or a concert coming up near her that she'd like to see? Perhaps you can buy tickets for her and her friends.

A couple of years ago, DH made a slideshow for his grandparents. He collected pictures of them as children, their school years, when they met, got married, had kids and grandkids, all of the birthdays, holidays etc, and set it to music. It was a LOT of work, but really worth it. They loved it, and the whole family cried.
