Technically, the Christmas holiday ends on Epiphany (Three Kings Day), January 6.
Personally, my family views Thanksgiving as more of a harvest fest. It's a celebration of good food. Then again, my mom grew up in England, my dad's parents immigrated from Holland as adults. They came to the feast a bit later than most.
I've only participated in the Black Friday shopping combat event one time. The combatants are far too blood thirsty for my further participation. If you are over 18, and can't afford it for yourself; no one else in the family can either. December 25 is just another day of feasting for us.
