Do you know the #1 thing that moms REALLY want for Mother’s Day? According to this article, it’s pretty simple. We just want a day off!
Can I get an amen?
I couldn’t agree more. Don’t bother with gifts, I just want an entire day to relax with my whole family without any household chores weighing me down.
Oh and I also want to spend time together as a family. As the kids get older and we are all pulled in different directions, we don’t get nearly enough family time. So, listen up family, here’s how I want my Mother’s Day to go down. 🙂
My Perfect Mother’s Day
- Sleep in until 8:00 a.m.
- Have coffee on the patio with my hubby.
- Get dressed in a cute, comfy outfit.
- Go to church.
- Have a nice brunch on the patio of my favorite Mexican restaurant with ALL THREE kids present
- Take the dog for a walk or go on a family bike ride.
- Grill out that evening and have dinner on the patio (clearly I like patios!)
- Relax the rest of the evening and NOT worry about laundry, lunches or backpacks for the week ahead!
Ahh, perfection!
I want my outfit for Mother’s Day to be as easy as the day I have planned so it will be this combo of a comfortable maxi dress, denim jacket and sandals. This is one of my favorite easy outfit formulas. The mint and navy Aztec print maxi from Cavender’s is perfect for topping with a denim jacket and pairing with metallic sandals.
