I am alreadying thinking about how uncomfortable this is going to be for me being with the family that wrote me off and banished me, knowing I am only there because they want my girls there.
I'd cancel and take the girls somewhere. Then they don't miss out.
The point here is establishing that YOU are in control when YOU have the girls.
The girls don't need their dad feeling like cr*p, being uncomfortable and not being there for them while at the party. You need to look after you. The girls will get over it. Especially if you do something equally good with them.
