As you celebrate mom this weekend, you can celebrate a gorgeous spring weekend at the same time

Families can choose from many events and activities happening this weekend in Champaign-Urbana

It is Mother’s Day weekend! That means that, this weekend more than ever, it is a great reason to celebrate and enjoy special time with (or without) your loved ones, depending on what your mom’s day plans look like. Reading this and thinking about what to do for a special mom in your life? (Ahem, dads.) Get some ideas here on how to make this weekend special, on any budget. Hint: Mom doesn’t want to cook for as much of this weekend as possible.

Finding a spot to eat may be challenging, as this is also graduation weekend at the University of Illinois, but we have some guidance for you here on finding a spot for Mother’s Day brunch.
