Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

I live in Virginia. My son lives with my ex-wife in Connecticut. Our "Agreed Order" was entered in Virginia in 2008. After moving to Connecticut, she had the case "certified" in Connecticut (not sure exactly what that means). The "Agreed Order" states that she has primary physical custody and we have joint legal custody. The Order also contains fairly clear visitation schedules, with the "changes to this schedule may be made as long as both parties agree" statement. All that being said, my ex-wife has recently told me that she refuses to bring my son for a scheduled 2 week visitation in August because my wife and I plan to take him on vacation in Florida. There is nothing in the Order preventing me from vacationing out of state during visitation. I have since emailed her to ask her about pickup/drop off schedules for the upcoming visitation and she is not responding. Do I have any recourse?

You could sue in Connecticut for the enforcement of this order if

your former wife refuses to comply with it.
