It would be nice to have a direct connection with another family! Once we get more info, we should share stories. I am stressing over PIR since there are 5 in the immediate family and we are told we only get 4 tickets! It is so hard to know someone can't attend. We unfortunately had to choose the 11 year old since he would be bored to tears during the ceremony. I'm just not sure how to handle the weekend. We would hate to leave him behind with someone since they wouldn't get to see each other again for quite a while. What do we do? Lock him in the hotel and stress safety? UGH! I left it in Gods hands, but am still human and stressing!!
