Commercialism has it all backwards. The Christmas season STARTS on Dec 25th!
Yeah, as a child attending Mass I noticed we never sang Christmas music until Christmas Eve. It lasted for a few weeks then it was back to regular music. At least in the Episcopalian Church the Season of Epiphany lasts until Lent.

And My mom never put the tree up before the 22nd.

PS I have cousins in Rhode Island, Middletown I believe.
