Each Mother’s Day the girls in my family plan a day out.  It is a great way to celebrate motherhood, sisterhood, cousinhood (I’m sure that’s not a word, but you get the gist) and just have fun!  Some guys may think this is pretty selfish of us but our guys seem to be happy to send us on our merry way.  In fact sometimes they get together on Mother’s Day and do their own thing.  Some of our previous adventures have included lunch on a train, shopping in towns we don’t usually frequent, tours of the Newport Mansions, sight seeing in Salem, MA home of the witch trials, a visit to Lizzie Borden’s home and we always have at least one meal whether it be brunch, lunch or dinner.  Yes, some places are not typical to celebrate Mothers’s Day, but they are unique and interesting to us.  I suggest you gather your family around, brainstorm some ideas and make a plan to try something new!

This year’s plans are underway to spend a night at Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut.  We booked a couple hotels rooms today.  Now to Google the area and see what we can get ourselves into!  I hope you take a cue from us and do the same!
