Historic Downtown celebrated Moms on Saturday, May 9th. More than 1,000 moms with their friends and families visited the downtown to participate in the flower trail, specialty lunches and shopping. Entertainment was featured throughout the downtown including henna art, caricature artist, an accordion player, Come Back Buddy and stiltwalkers. This was the 2nd Mother’s Day Celebration in downtown Glendale. The event began last year to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mother’s Day. “Our Mother’s Day celebration was a fun filled day and a perfect opportunity for families to enjoy the unique aspects of Downtown Glendale,” said Lorraine Pino, Tourism Manager.

Here! Start your celebration at the Glendale Visitor Center and pick up a beautiful flower, event map and goodie bag. Many of the downtown shops and restaurants featured discounts and giveaways, free flowers and special Mother’s Day gift ideas, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m

 

Fun Fact
Anna Jarvis is credited with beginning the Mother's Day celebration in 1908 with special events held in Grafton West Virginia, and Philadelphia Pennsylvania. Jarvis handed out flowers at her Methodist church in honor of her late Mother.

Kimberly Ann’s  served high tea for Mother’s Day weekend on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The high tea included strawberry walnut salad, an assortment of fresh fruit, an assortment of homemade pastries, and 8 finger sandwiches per person, scone, lemon curd Devonshire cream and a pot of loose leaf tea. Cost was $25 per person including tax and gratuity. Reservations were required.

Miracle Haven featured a Mom & Daughter Tutu’s
 & Cupcakes Tea Party with fairytale theme

Miracle Haven
5845 W. Palmaire Ave

Mothers, daughters and granddaughters celebrated Mother's Day at Miracle Haven's first ever "Cupcakes & Tutu's Tea Party". The  girls were absolutely precious in their custom made tutu's. A light lunch and "tea" (actually milk or strawberry lemonade in tiny, white teapots) was served to each of the girls, while mothers enjoyed their choice of triangle-cut sandwiches and pasta salad.

After lunch each little girl received a princess make-over while moms were pampered with sugar scrub, lotions and a cooking eye sachet. The afternoon was a charming success and everyone seemed to enjoy their lunch and time together. 

Miracle Haven would love to host a "Daddy Daughter Tutu's and Cupcakes" lunch in June, and let the dad's make a special memory, too. Hopefully we'll be able to secure a masseuse for a little, guy-style "pampering" while daughters have their makeovers. Details: TBA

 


 

Come Back Buddy  Rocked and Rolled Outside  
The Cottage Garden II
7162 N. 58th Ave.  623-847-5262

 

Come Back Buddy is a 3-piece rock-n-roll band inspired by the legendary "Buddy Holly and the Crickets."  The trio's repertoire includes the music of many artists from the 50's era including Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Ricky Nelson, and of course, Buddy Holly. 

Mike Randall provides Come Back Buddy's lead vocals and guitar. With Janine Randall on bass and Don Rinehart on drums, the band has a strong foundation... and a strong following!

Come Back Buddy has performed at large venues for the public, entertaining thousands and for private parties. They get their audiences up dancing, giving them an enjoyable and memorable experience! Past performances include the 80th Birthday Bash for Murray Deutch, publisher of Holly's hit 'That'll Be The Day.'

The group has been seen live on the 3 TV show 'Good Morning Arizona' on multiple occasions. The travelin' trio regularly performs throughout the Southwest including Arizona, Nevada, California & Oregon.

Come Back Buddy has played class reunions, graduation parties, retirement celebrations, birthdays (all ages), weddings & receptions, anniversaries and special events such as New Year's, July 4th, Christmas & Holiday parties. 

The band's purpose is to add a fun musical atmosphere to any event. For some, Come Back Buddy is an education in nostalgia, while for others it's a walk down memory lane. So, if you're looking to turn back the clock or simply want to hear some of the great hits and music from the fabulous 50's, Come Back Buddy is the band for you!
