Any ideas for an 80th birthday party celebration?

Q. I need help on gift ideas, and unique decorating, etc. It's my mom's birthday and we have rented a room at a resturant. What do you thonk of pictures of my mom during different satges - little girl, teen, wedding, etc? Thanks for all answers.

A. a picture board is a great idea- I did one for my moms 60th party and she had a great time showing off her pics to everyone! Go get one of those tri-fold display boards and put tons of pics of her throughout the years on it- or you can make a slide show and play it on someones laptop computer- whichever works better for you. For decorating I just used my moms favorite colors- pink, purple, and silver accents- we had fake flower petals scattered down the center of the tables and a set of pretty candles next to a vase of lillies. I also found small travel candles for 50 cents and had one of those at each table setting as a party favor for the guests. We had balloon arrangements all over the room and hung streamers and some birthday banners too. I had also found on Ebay a book all about the year she was born and we had that on the picture table so people could look through that also and I found a Life magazine from th week she was born on there too (I gave that as a gift to her and she loved it).
so as far as decorations- go with something that you think she would like, maybe vases of her favorite flowers all over, or make it a theme relating to her favorite hobby and decorate along those lines (gardening, bingo, quilting- whatever!) This is a good time also to get some family pictures taken so make sure to gather up the whole group before people start to leave to get some good family shots.


Gift ideas for a 10 yr old that loves hockey?
Q. This friday is my brother's firends birthday and the whole 4th grade are going to see a college hockey game.

My mom needs gift ideas?
He loves hockey lol.

Her limit is $50.

Thanks!

A. I would definetly tell her to call his favorite hockey team and try and get some merchandise, a signed jersey or something like that, large organizations and teams are more than happy to help out for children passionate about something. If you can't get something like that then I would just get a fifty dollar gift-card for the NHL or something like that, then he can get anything hockey that he wants! I hope this helped!
