The holiday schedule overrides the normal first, third, fifth weekend schedule. So if the child is out the entire Thanksgiving week, then you get him from the Friday before Thanksgiving until 6:00 P.M. on the Sunday following Thanksgiving. At 6:00 P.M. on Sunday the regular possession schedule resumes. So, yes, if the weekend following Thanksgiving would have been your weekend anyway, then the child stays with you.
