Based on the Standard Texas Possession schedule, the non-custodial conservator will not have visitation/possession for Thanksgiving in 2012. The non-custodial parent does get the third Friday. November 16th through Sunday November 19th or to 8:00 a.m. Monday, November 19th if you have standard extended possession.

The Christmas holidays in Texas are divided in half by odd and even years. The non-custodial parent in even years (2012) will have the right to possession of the child beginning on the day school recesses for the Christmas holidays. Most school districts will recess on Friday, December 21st. You will need to check with your school district. The Christmas possession time will end at either noon, December 26th or noon, December 28th. The ending date for Standard Texas Possession schedule changed around 2005. double check your court order.
