I love both Thanksgiving and Christmas, but I have to agree that Christmas is a season. For me, there's something about having the time with family and sharing a fabulous meal with them and then the very next day, everything goes into Christmas mode, especially if it's cold outside (sometimes here in Texas, it is warm for Thanksgiving).
I love Christmas music and movies (actually, lately I've watched Christmas movies year 'round). However, when it comes to decorating, I don't do much of that these days because I don't like spending time putting everything away. I usually don't decorate for Thanksgiving/Fall, although I used to when my son was young, as we decorated for Halloween, and I have a stuffed turkey and a stuffed pumpkin that I made about 20 years ago.
I'm a fake tree person, as I grew up with fake trees because my brother was highly allergic to real trees. I do love the pre-lit trees, which reminds that we need a new tree, as our tree's lights don't work.
