Leu, I am with you! Family comes before extracuricular activities. It is not like you had dinner reservations you wouldn't change. It is a family vacation and a special occasion. How many times do you figure you will renew your vows? Probably just once. How many competitions and recitals and games and parent conferences do you bend over backwards to attend? It is fair and right.
