1. Disney Mother’s Day Weekend Trip
If your mom is a fanatic for Disney then taking her on a weekend trip to Disneyland or Disney World is going to blow her mind! You could turn this into an entire family trip or keep this as a girls-only vacation!
Insider Tip: DON’T take your mom to either of the Disneys on the actual Mother’s day weekend. The parks will be packed as everyone will be thinking of the same idea. Instead set the expectation to celebrate the weekend before or afterwards with your mom and avoid longer than usual lines. Here is the traffic calendar links for Disneyland and then Disney World.
2. Women’s Retreat
Churches sometimes put together women’s retreats around the springtime or you can look like a retreat event happening in an area you and your mom have wanted to visit for some time. This way someone else has put together the activities and you both can spend more time enjoying each other and less time planning.
3. Travel Around New York & See A Broadway Show
New York has some of the best Broadway shows out there! Make a weekend trip out of it and explore the city that never sleeps along the way!

A great resort town to spend a weekend at is Lincoln, Oregon! There area has plenty of shopping and isn’t too far from the Tillamook factory where you can get some delicious ice cream as well as free cheese samples!

7. Air BnB in Your Local Town & Favorite Restaurant
Last year we booked an Air BnB and served everyone’s favorite dishes in the dining area from Olive Garden! It was the perfect space for everyone to feel welcome. Not dining at the restaurant allowed us to spend more time socializing over the food and hang out longer. Air BnB’s are a great space to host a mini gathering for card playing, movie watching, and just spending a weekend trip relaxing together.
8. Shopping Spree in Dallas, Texas
