That sucks. I honestly cringe that your agreement has no specific outline for holidays. Sometimes coparenting goes really well, but later starts falling apart - and often when new girlfriends/spouses are in the picture. I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but I'm worried for you that this could become a more consistent problem and I would talk to a lawyer about getting a specific holiday schedule in place. You can always agree to do something different, but the papers are what you fall back on when you can't agree, so an agreement that says "we will agree" really isn't very helpful.
I'm sorry that you might miss out on Sam's birthday. That sucks.

Nope, I am sorry but Bdays should not follow the same visitation schedule.
I would tell him that he can take him the following day but you would like to celebrate with him somehow during his Bday. It's not like you are saying that he shouldn't go to Disney (that would be selfish)but just take him on a different day.

The bolded, x347345.
I'm sorry you won't get to see Sam. Look at it this way -- he gets to celebrate twice!
Hugs! Sorry you are upset. It sucks to not get to see him on his birthday. Is there a way they could work out time in the late afternoon/early evening that you would be allowed to see him?
He's saying the tickets are for a specific day. I said I would spend Sunday with Sam instead. But I'm honestly hurt at the idea of not seeing him. Not to mention my beach party seems small compared to a day at disney. I'm tearing up at my desk.
We really do usually work we together. He's swapping nights so I can take the kids to a family resort hotel next weekend.
I've never heard of such a thing and I used to work there, albeit D-land, not World. The only thing I can think of as a (wild) possibility is if they were special promotional tickets that expired that day, but that seems unlikely unless this trip had been in the works for almost a year or something.
