It depends on your divorce decree. If your divorce decree contains a plain, standard possession order, then the father gets to pick as long as he picks by April 1 each year. If he does not pick by April 1, then:

(a) If he lives less than 100 miles from the children, then he gets them from July 1 to July 31.

(b) If he lives 100 miles or more from the children, then he gets them from June 15 to July 27.
