In any divorce case, settling which parent has the children for significant holidays and events is a standard part of the visitation schedule. The holidays and events in the list below are the ones that are normally included.

Thanksgiving?
Yes! Judge Mangum was very specific about Thanksgiving - giving Wednesday through Sunday to Mr. Mills on odd-numbered years and to Venessa Mills on even-numbered years.
Coincidentally, Thanksgiving is when Venessa Mills' church holds their annual conference - one of the only times when Venessa and her children can travel to fellowship with the other parents, adults, and children who attend. It's a great time that they all look forward to every year.
I find it interesting that Thanksgiving was the only holiday that Judge Mangum felt the need to address in his temporary order. I'm sure you can also come to your own conclusion based on these facts.
Oh, and, yes, this is an odd-numbered year.
