#FVMDGG Mother's Day DIY Gift Ideas

Some of the best gifts a mother can get are the ones made from love. When I was a little girl, I always made my mother a card. Personalizing it to her and how I felt about her. When I became a mom, I soon learned how much that sort of gift can mean. 
I've asked a bunch of wonderful bloggers to help me out and bring you a bunch of last minutes ideas that you, (dads, babysitters, and such), can make with the kids to give mom a special gift from the heart.


1. Give her some tasty tea in a mug. Show her you want her to sit back and relax.

2. Give her a beautiful frame to hold her family memories.

3. Give her products to pamper herself with.

4. Some more pamper products. Mom can never be pampered enough!

5. How about you give her your love?

6. Show her all the reasons you care.

7. Make mom a signature scent.

8. Give her a vase to hold her flowers.

    I like the idea of tea and a moment to relax. Maybe vacuum for her or do some of her other chores and give her a break!

    Interesting selections. My mother doesn't like Mother's Day. She complains if I get her anything.

    Homemade gifts are the best, I always encouraged my children to make rather than buy. I appreciated the hard work they put in to the gifts so much more than any $4.00 and up card.

Scooby Doo: The Sword And The Scoob

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23! RATED F 72 minutes AMAZON An evil sorceress transports the gang back to the age chivalrous knights, spell-casting wizards, and fire-breathing dragons. While there, Shaggy unwittingly pulls out Excalibur from a nearby stone to cut a block of cheese and now no one is sure who the rightful ruler is. The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although

The Invisible Man

AVAILABLE TODAY! RATED R 125 MINUTES AMAZON What you can't see can hurt you. Trapped in a violent, controlling relationship with a wealthy scientist, Cecilia (Elisabeth Moss) escapes in the dead of night and disappears into hiding. But when her abusive ex suddenly dies, Cecilia suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie coincidences turns lethal, threatening the lives of those she loves, Cecilia's sanity begins to unravel while she desperately tries to prove she is being hunted by someone nobody can see.  REVIEW: I sorta hated the beginning. Starts outs so dark that you can't really make anything out. Hard to know what's going on if you can't see. It doesn't take long to get light though. Thankfully. Man, does the story ever pick up after that. I don't remember much about the original but this one is intense. Right to the very last second too. Sydney is badass and shows it throughout. Can you imagine what it would
