. . . Starbucks starts going back to their regular cups. :)
I went there today and had to get my grande drink in a plain white cup. First time since early November that I didn't get a Christmas cup. :(
For me, the unofficial herald of Christmas season is when Starbucks gets its Christmas cups. I met someone once who said she collected them every year, since they change the design each year. :)

For me it's over when they stop the Christmas music, which my main station did Christmas night at 12am. I was ticked. Luckily there was another station that played it to Sunday at 6pm so that was good.
I still miss it on the stereo though.
I haven't been to Starbucks yet since Christmas Eve, but I did get my last Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha that day so it's all good. Looking forward to next year! Will be here before we know it.

I know Christmas is officially done, when Mark starts the tear-down inside (on the 26th every year) and I start planning NEXT year's display. YUP, already working on it....

You and me both Craig. Doesn't have to be bigger. Always has to be better.
For me it's when family and friends part on Christmas day. After all that's really what it's about. Then Christmas clean up season begins. That usually lasts till mid Jan. LOL

Sirius satellite radio will be playing Christmas music at least until midnight tonight. And yes, I am listening to it.

When I spend half the day in the Christmas Attic....my thigh muscles are killing me as well as muscles I never knew I had. I can stand up in most of it, but not to get in and out, there's this one beam my head became acquainted with more than once.

Christmas is over when you start to notice how lame and normal your living room looks.

Christmas is over when you start thinking about what props you need to build for your halloween display this year.
