As to flights from phx .. Thats where i am .. And Granted I'm way out of touch on what i think they should be based on last time i flew in caveman days ..but while checking out southwest and united etc they were high at 500 each one way unless you wanted non refundable then it was 200 one way each .. Still seems a lot to me just to sit for hours ..ha!

Thanks lala.. I'll remind him often cuz I can't pass for my 24 yr old daughter nor her hubby who he named ;)!
Comment by ethansmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:36pm
Mkcmom since your div is close to mine is that the brother thing ? Or is it closer the missing 263 ? And is it brothers train together sleep eat etc so it's possibly to be friends or ?
Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on July 5, 2012 at 10:28pm

And you are right, that happens a lot :-)

Comment by Lala Ribbon Queen PIR Ribbons on July 5, 2012 at 10:28pm

They get a chance closer to PIR to update or make changes to the list. It will be fine. Just let him know :-)

Comment by ethansmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:27pm
Since I read this board everyday well every hour thanks to emails from phone .. I haven't found place on how to identify other members who have their kids in same group .. I think it would be interesting to know if our kids were friends and we'd meet at PIR! So hopefully someone is in my sons group and are on this website ...
Comment by mkcmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:27pm

oh yes, Mine has to make a change also, he put down me, his dad, his sister and his brother in law, but his brother in law isn't able to get off work, so we are changing it to his brothers name (who lives in hawaii at the moment, but is moving to phoenix WE HOPE before grad) if he's in phoenix he can go, but he will not be able to go form hawaii, tickets are too expensive.....I'm sure several will have changes to make.  No worries!

Comment by ethansmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:22pm
Oops will he know who to tell ? I sure hope he doesn't get in trouble for having to make change .. In order to stay half way sane and not cry I'm going to have to believe Atleast one other person has goofed up so they're prepared for changes from the SR :)
Comment by ethansmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:20pm
Thanks for info mkcmom..I already sealed 2 letters but will tell him in next letter,, my life isn't that exciting so I have to space out letters !.. I'm mailing both tomorrow then will mix in some cards and those bc questionnaires for sure in next days
Comment by mkcmom on July 5, 2012 at 10:12pm

ethansmom -- Yea for letters!  So happy for you, got mine today as well.  Yes, in your next letter to him you need to let him know to put your actual NAMES in those spaces....Mother and Father won't cut it.....since there'll be about 800 mothers and fathers there!  LOL..  No worries, he has plenty of time to fix that, but the names on that list is what allows you entrance to PIR.  Your name not on list, you no go!
