Ways To Celebrate Memorial Day 2020 At Home In Omaha, NE

by Nancy Heim-berg

Ways To Celebrate Memorial Day 2020 At Home In Omaha, NEGrab your red, white and blue and get ready to celebrate Memorial Day 2020! While we understand this year may not be spent BBQing at a large backyard party (thanks, Covid), that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the holiday with your family safely at home.

Below we have listed a few ways to celebrate Memorial Day from the comfort of your own home, along with other virtual events held by local Omaha, NE businesses this weekend. We hope you enjoy today’s blog and have a wonderful holiday weekend! 

How to celebrate Memorial Day at Home: 

-Wearing red, white and blue clothing and filling your home with festive decorations are wonderful ways to bring the spirit of the holiday to life! Seeing the patriotic colors and décor also serve as a wonderful reminder of why we celebrate Memorial Day in the first place. 

-On that same note, you can also bring the festive decorations outside your home by flying an American Flag and using chalk art on your sidewalks. Not only is chalk art a fun way to spend an afternoon, but it is also a sweet and artistic way to honor those who have served. Let your inner artist go wild! 

-Another way to celebrate the holiday is by tuning in to PBS for the “National Memorial Day concert.” This celebration features documentary footage, celebrity performances and warm readings to honor and celebrate military personnel and their families. The event will be held Sunday, May 24th at 8:00pm EST. 

-Take the time to acknowledge a solider in your life (if you know one) with a quick call, text or FaceTime. You can also donate or drop off flowers to fallen heroes at your local cemetery to honor their life and sacrifice.  

-Lastly, for the music lovers out there, have a patriotic concert right in the comfort of your living room! Find a list of the nation’s most national songs and sing like there is no tomorrow. It is a great family bonding activity and is a sure way to bring some light to everyone’s day.

How To Celebrate This Mother’s Day In Omaha, NE

by Nancy Heim-berg

How To Celebrate This Mother’s Day In Omaha, NEIf you usually celebrate Mother’s Day outside the house with yummy brunches, relaxing spa days or a family trip to the movie theatre, you may find yourself scrambling to make alternate plans this year.  

Even with social distancing guidelines in place and many local businesses not operating as they normally would you can still make this Mother’s Day one to remember. Below we have listed some fun ways to celebrate the special women in your life to let them know just how loved they are! 

If you live with mom:

-Breakfast in bed: the classic “go to” move to ensure mom starts her day with a smile. Set your alarm to wake early and put your chef skills to work by whipping up her favorite morning meal. 

-Plan a family movie: Grab the cozy blankets, throw the popcorn in the microwave and hit play on your mom’s favorite movie. She will love to spend time with her family while watching her most loved flick. 

If mom is a short drive from you:

-Organize a drive-by parade: Gather your siblings, family members and friends to drive by your mom’s house on Mother’s Day. Decorate your cars, make signs and cheer as you show love from a distance. 

-Decorate her front door: Leave little notes taped to your mom’s front door with everything you love about her, favorite memories with her or a special poem. Additionally, you can find a festive wreath to hang so every time she looks at it, she thinks of your love for her. 

-Leave a care package at her door: Gather a few of your mom’s favorite items and leave them at her door. This is sure to bring a smile and make her feel special.

If mom is miles away:

-Organize a virtual party: Send an invite for your whole family to join in! Make it fun by asking everyone to share their favorite memory or quality they love most about your mom. This is a special time to bring everyone together and make mom feel loved, appreciated and adored by everyone near and far. 

-Take an online cooking class together: There are many businesses that are hosting virtual cooking classes for you to take advantage of. Find a cuisine you like and start chopping! When the class is over, do a video call and enjoy a Mother’s Day meal together. 

 

Happy Mother’s Day!
