My mother is on the other side of the country, so we'll be doing a video chat.
Taking the wife and kids out for breakfast after letting her sleep as late as she wants.
 
What the heck, this is my official entry.My mom passed away in 92 but i will be taking my girlfriend out to lunch... she's a mother.

I am taking my mother out to dinner in Boston's north end tonight. And tomorrow (Sunday) I'll be hooking up her new 50 inch smart TV that I just bought for her. Now she can watch Seinfeld and Sopranos reruns in crystal-clear high definition. Even though she still swears up and down that there is nothing wrong with her old TV. Oh ma , I wish you would just embrace technology already 😀
 
This is my official entry post! I'm not quite at 100 entries, but hopefully I will be by the time the drawing occurs! For Mothers Day this year the Family and I are going to Zoo Atlanta. She loves taking the kids to the Zoo, and as long as she's happy, I'm happy! Plus, I got her a really nice citizen watch she's had her eye on for some time.

I just wanted to say "good on ya" for the GAW Comeuppance (may Karma smile upon you!), and say "Happy Mother's Day" to all the mommas out there. I'll tell my Mom and my wife in person.

Headed over to our daughter's with the in-laws for her first Mother's Day with her and her husbands new baby. Good times, even if I am feeling my years a little more now than in years past.
 
This is my official entry. Thanks for the opportunity.

My Mother's Day will be spent with a sappy card, some movies (Mom's choice), and probably some fancy dinner she likes, made by my father (who likes to cook).

Sent mom a card and a candle. Would take her out to lunch but she's lives several states away.
 
Very generous of you, thank you.

I'm taking my wife and kids to a water park tomorrow. I bought her a set of 1ct princess cut diamond earrings.

I bought my mother a $100 amazon gift card.
 
Went down east to see my mom. Brought her a big Picasso supertunia hanging plant and am cooking a stuffed pork roast dinner tomorrow. Russ

Well for my family mother's day is a bit busy since we do mother's day, my aunt's birthday, and sister in law's birthday all together. So my plan will be church with my grandmother, a nice bbq in the park near her house, and then I'm going to take her to the movies and make her dinner. Her present is some old photographs I dug up from more than a decade ago of my siblings and I, to remind her that sometimes the memories we never forget are the stupid silly goofy little things nobody else would ever care about. I have a photo of my little brother and I light saber sword fighting from back in '06

Was going to visit my mom with some flowers, she's going for surgery tomorrow.
talk some spirit into her.
Later going to BBQ with mom in law.


but....

I'm down with the flu... sick as I've not been in years.
Unbelievable... first sunny day in a week....
Now my GF is doing it all by herself... worse, she took the dog also. ;)

Goodluck everyone, and thanks for the generous chance.
 
The winner is Ulf Krogstad, post #61! Congratulations! I'll be honest, I was (ever so slightly) tempted to forgo true randomization and pick that one anyway just so it'd go to someone's mom, but, the random number generator gods made it happen regardless!

Again, happy Mother's Day to all! And, also, thank you Bladeforums for being what you are - awesome, varied, active, informative, welcoming, and enabling :)
