Family reunion (in an elementary school music classroom)

I was walking through a marsh with a group of my relatives. We came to an area where there were a lot of objects (just small household/decorative objects) lying on the ground, and we all picked up some of them that looked cool. Hasan (he was there too for some reason) said he found a knife where the blade looked like a feather. I looked around and saw a knife that fit that exact description. I picked it up and said, “this one?” and he said no, the one he’d seen was bigger. Then someone (maybe it was Sarah? or maybe Rebecca) said “we have to keep going, we’ve got a lot of miles to cover” and we started walking again. Somehow we ended up in a music classroom in an elementary school. As far as I know it was the same group of relatives as had been walking through the marsh with me, but I don’t think Hasan was there. I do know that Sarah was standing right next to me. Tonya was leading us in a song about how great music class was (even though she’s an art teacher), that was set to the tune of I Want It That Way by the Backstreet Boys. I looked down, and right by my feet was a songbook labeled “Songs for Old Couples”. The first song listed was specifically for a thirtieth anniversary celebration. I looked back at Tonya (who was doing an excellent job conducting considering she’s not a conductor) and then thought “wait a second, did that songbook really say Songs for Old Couples? You’d think they’d say Older or Elderly, people generally don’t like being called old.” I looked back, and it still said Songs for Old Couples (so i guess that particular reality check doesn’t work for me or something). Anyway, this whole time everyone was singing the song, and when it finished, I started crying. I was really embarrassed so I ran away to the bathroom, which looked a lot like the bathroom in my house. I looked in the mirror to see if you could tell I had been crying (this is the first time I remember ever looking in a mirror in a dream) and I noticed that my face was very pale and my eyes were weirdly small and far apart. You couldn’t tell I’d been crying though.
