Mother's Day Lunch

Last year, along with our siblings, Eric and I hosted a Mother's Day Lunch. We decided to do it again this year- I hope it becomes a tradition!  Since, we still have no dining room chairs (like 20 people would fit at the table), we're having it outside. My brother is going to put up a  tent with tables and chairs (perks of having a rental business in the fam!). 

Here is what I've been thinking:

Should I do one long table or a few round ones? I can't decide! I don't want to go all out and I do want to keep the cost low. Throw me any ideas for decorations!

  1. Oh boy I can't wait. I'm thankful to be a mother in your family! One long table might be fun for a change so we can all sit together. Think Eric's graduation was the only other time we could do it like that.

  2. Um, that menu sounds beyond delicious! Can I come? Ha!
    Oh and I like the idea of one long table. It's always fun to all sit together and everyone is talking and laughing and passing the food around. :) Can't wait to hear how it goes.

  3. Will you please plan the menu for my events this weekend? That all sounds delicious!! I'd go with one long table and do pansies/other flowers in little pots and let each mother take one home as a little gift (decoration plus party favor in one!). Target has such pretty disposable plates right now for a very reasonable price if you don't have enough china or don't want to be that formal. Can't wait to see how it all turns out!
