Mother's Day may come with a few less hugs this year, but you can still treat your special lady! We've put together a few of our favorite Mother's Day ideas for you to do during the coronavirus. I will say, a nap is always a great gift!

We all have those friends that are doing side hustles of Color Street Nails, Thirty-One, Mary Kay and more. Support your friends and grab a great gift for your mom at the same time! They can ship them out.
Gift Cards
If there were ever a time you can get away with getting a gift card for Mother's Day. Now is that time. Grab a card to her favorite restaurant or place of business and make sure to include a hand written note telling her how special she is! Click here for gift card ideas.
Create a Memory

If you haven't had a photo taken of the family in a whle, make sure to do a Front Porch Session. Several photographers are offering low cost sessions to preserve this memory. It's a great way to social distance and put on actual pants for a photo. Click here for a list of photographers offering sessions.
Take a Hike
You can hit the trails as a family and see some beautiful places. Grab a charcuterie board and make a picnic. We suggest taking one of the waterfall hikes!
Sweets & Eats
Located at Lowe Mill A&E, Pizzelle's Confections is offering a limited selection for Mother's Day. You can pre-order from their online store, but quantities are limited so make sure you order early. They are not fully open, and cannot add or subtract to your order at pickup. The only things available for purchase are what you see in the online store. You MUST order & pay online.

Lowe Mill is open with some restrictions in place. Enter through the main gate, you must wear face masks, and you must practice social distancing, and you must pick up your order and leave.
