No. Thanksgiving begins the excitement rollercoaster and Christmas is the middle of the ride. The highest section of the rollercoaster. You get off the roller coaster when it's New Year's Eve.

I think people like the proximity of Thanksgiving and Christmas. It turns the winter into one big holiday season for a while.
