Last week it was hot- almost 80. Tomorrow is expected to be like today 50-55 and heavy winds. Cold, damp and very miserable. Maybe, Mom is supposed to think of the beach with these?!?
THIS SAYS THE FLIP FLOPS ARE A MEMORABLE GIFT...LOL. I'D SAY SO.

Maybe they are giving pedicures at the church and everyone needs flip flops to wear home.

Okay.......... maybe I'm blind, but I don't see where it says that they are giving the mothers flip flops. I just see one ladies' flip flop used as a graphic for mother's day...... Does the the ad actually state they are giving flip flops and I missed it?????? I does say "memorable gift" - but I don't see it state what the memorable gift will be. Are we jumping to conclusions here? Let me know if I missed where it actually states that.

I'm not sure either Sweet Pea. But I know year after year it gets hard to think up something original...I may remember flip-flops for next year! Of course it would be difficult to know what sizes to get everyone...

If they were giving them away, would you think it appropriate?

Well not that my opinion matters here but...I must admit I have a closet full of flip flops and 2 pair of dress shoes...
So I would be excited to have another pair. I think Flip flops should be considered platform shoes lol they are comfortable, ez to kick of when ya shout and if you dont kick em off you probably wont break your neck when you do shout.
Now for those of us who dont shout... Def. wear a nice pair of heels lol (JK btw) But I do love my flops but my husband wont let me wear them to church lol

I bought my mom roses to plant in her flower garden.. and a nice Mother's day card with a gift card enclosed.

My mother doesn't wear flip flops, so I definitely wouldn't have purchased them for her.

I can't imagine our church handing out flip flops to mom's either...
