    50th birthday ideas

    My mother is turning 50 in December and I would love to do something special for her since it is such a "big" birthday.

    I have no ideas and it sucks, time is getting thin.

    Sorry this thread is a bit sucky but none of my friends have good ideas either.

    Give her a half-dollar coin!

    How much money do you want to spend?

        Dude I am poor. I cant afford a cruise for myself never mind for her!

        I work two jobs and I still need more money ugh.

        Anyways, I dont really have a money value set...I am looking for something not too expensive but something special for us to to do together cuz we are super close.

            She appreciates life a lot since she recovered from cancer, she doesnt drink. She just appreciates the little things and something small can mean everything to her so i really dont need to make it big/flashy. She likes music, baking, blah blah

              Just a few ideas:

              Nice dinner
              Have pictures taken with her
              Strip-o-gram

              I don't know. I guess your options are slightly more limited with it being winter and all. Down here there's a ton of stuff you can do. My parents are both over 50 and I can't even remember what we did for them. Would she get a kick out of a surprise party? Does she have a lot of friends/family in the area?

                do some research on stuff that happened throughout her life, and make a timeline of major events that she's been through, or something. maybe you can find some games that she played when she was 12 and buy/play 'em with her, like marbles or something.

                it's just an idea.

                      take her to a very tall hill and walk up one side and down the other.

                      j/k

                      sounds like a fancy dinner and a day in the sun would do her some good.
                      she prolly wants to keep it simple but surprise her with some concert tickets or something.
                      ( by concert i mean an opera or some incognito jazz bar )

                      heck, i dont know. i wasnt around for my dad or step moms 50th. and my natural moms is coming up in a year or so, but i douobt i'll be around for that either.
                      good luck.

                        Re: 50th birthday ideas

                        i know its kinda cold out, but take her to the zoo, sounds a little cheesey, but they have cool exhibits there, not sure if they have the same ones from the summer though , like the butterfly exhibit, gotta check,
                        this sun my mom wants to go the city, theres like a choclate fair thing going on, w 18th street, @ the metro pavillian? get there early, my mom went last year and said it got packed out,then theres another fair of some kind on madison btw 42nd 47th, its like a holiday expo.. something like that, try to do a search and see if theres anything going on with the kind of music she listens too, concerts, singers stuff like that, if shes really cool, u could take her to charles feelgood @ pier 63

                            Whoa that almost sounds dirty. Maybe you need to take your relationship to that next level. There isn't anything that says I love you more then a mother, daughter sex toy party.
