I don't know what people want to do, here is what we did on our last cruise. Everyone had a goody bag to hang on their fish. I made them for our group last time (there were only 8 or so of us). I just used two sheets of felt sewn together with a Mickey head on the front and a ribbon handle. Everybody brought goodies for everybody else. Some people brought a gift a day for everybody, some just one gift. The things ranged from glow sticks, to candy, to Christmas ornaments. I did bring a couple extra bags in case they were stolen but we had no problem, I had also brought plastic cable ties to secure them but it wasn't necessary. It was fun to come back to the room and find things in the bag.
I don't know how it would work for a group this size. Would everyone make their own bags? Would we do it grab-bag style, each family draws another family so your only doing gifts for one, then reveal who you had after the cruise? I'm game.
Have a blast, eat some gingerbread cookies for us and we'll see you on the ship.
I think we could definitely draw (or) "adopt" another family for the cruise and if you wish to do someone else's as well that's entirely up to you! I do think that we should do the family selection at The Meet as an incentive to get people to show up there! 
In addition to this you're meeting the family rather than placing gifts in their "Fishy Thingymerbabber" 
and never knowing who it is!
So I guess if she decides not to come I will have some extra spending money for sure
Because of Hurricane Dean last year. SO they added Grand Cayman on Wed the day after Cozumel. We were sad about missing the ruins.
