What are some of the VI traditions or events during the holiday season?

From what I can tell you can have the traditional turkey and fixings but there are some other options as well?

Lots of parties. It's hard to get anything done from Thanksgiving to Three Kings Day (Jan 6) around here.

Petra: One thing you will absolutely have to do is learn all the words to King Obstinate's immortal Christmas song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8ZFMHEZOq4

Ho, ho, ho!!! Ho, ho, ho!!! How will Santa get here?

Wow! Can't wait. I have Easter 2015 planned and was looking for things to do over the holiday season. Sounds like we won't be bored.
