Holiday Season Debate: When Does Christmas Officially Start?

The holiday season brings out strong opinions, and honestly, we respect all of them. Some teammates insist on finishing Thanksgiving leftovers before even thinking about Christmas music. Others have their tree up before the pumpkin on their stoop starts to sag. So we asked our team a simple question: When does the holiday season officially begin for you?

The answers were very on brand for us. A little orderly. A little chaotic. Slightly unhinged in the best way.

Team After Thanksgiving

This crew protects Thanksgiving with their whole heart. No lights. No music. No peppermint anything until the turkey has had its moment.

Team November First

Halloween ends and boom. Lights. Candles. Mariiiiiiiiaaaaaaah!!! This group does not hesitate. If there is a peppermint mocha within a five mile radius, they know about it.

Team Whenever Makes You Happy

These free spirits refuse to let a calendar tell them when joy is allowed. If the lights go up on a random Tuesday in April, that is between them and their HOA. Some might call them people pleasers, but we're not judging their unjudgmental attitude.

• Marco

Team Christmas Never Ends

There is only one person in this category. For him, Christmas is less of a season and more of a lifestyle choice.

• Hudson

If nothing else, this made one thing very clear. Our team works incredibly well together despite having absolutely zero agreement on the official start of the holiday season. Maybe that is the true holiday miracle.

And remember: SANTAna IS REAL estate
