After the hustle and bustle of Pioneer Days don't forget to celebrate Mother's Day the right way. Mother's Day is a time of commemoration and celebration for Mom. It is a time of breakfast in bed, family gatherings, and crayon scribbled "I Love You"s.
How do you thank your mom for everything she's done for you? Flowers, flowers, flowers. Not sure what kinds your mom likes? Choose blooms in her favorite colors, or select the flowers she used in her wedding bouquet. Potted flowers dress up both outdoor and indoor spaces and make a great gift for Mom. A great place to shop for Mom's flowers is Golden Crown in downtown Guymon at 412 N Main. Gift ideas from there are: Brooke Jackson Hitch, a one of a kind necklace; a personalized gift basket with bath and body items or candy or a beautiful plant or bouquet. You can also find quality jewelry at Guymon's own jeweler, Henry's located at 415 N. Main or Staats jewelers in Liberal, Kansas where they say the more beautiful they are for your sweetie, the sweeter it makes everything else. Got a more laid-back, modern mom, then maybe you should try Merle Norman, who is having a Mother's Day special where they are taking off 25 percent all shoes and handbags. Merle Norman is located at 419 N. Main. Today and Yesterday in Texhoma is offering a mother's day special where they are open all day on May 7,8 and 9. They have lots of new inventory to select that special gift for your mom. Or check out Klassy Kidz and show you mom that she is special with a Camille Beckman gift set, free gift with a gift set purchase. For those moms who may like the bigger gifts Guymon Furniture is having a Mother's Day special. The first 60 mothers to come in will recieve a free gift, they are located at 515 N Main, Guymon, Okla. P.D.Q. would also like to give out a special thank-you to all the mothers, thanks moms for always being there. Special moms deserve special gifts and here are two other ways to give your mom a gift, and a day, to remember. Pose for a family portrait, whether you break out the digital camera or hire a professional photographer, Mom will appreciate this reminder of her special day. Present the photo to her in a nice frame. Queen for a day, moms' days are usually filled with lots of tedious tasks. This is the day for you to cook, clean, fill up Mom's car with gas and take care of every little detail to make her day easier. In addition to showering your mother with presents, there are lots of other fun ways to spend the day, such as: mix things up by making her a brunch picnic, just pack a quick picnic by tossing a green salad and chocolate-covered strawberries into a basket, and take mom to her favorite scenic place; blast from the past, growing up, what was your mom's favorite pastime? Bowling, mini golf, ping-pong, bridge, softball, relive her youth with a fun group outing. |
