I like the idea of calling Christmas (or the days around then ... or January 6th, whatever really xD) 'The Holy Day' ^^ And yeah, I think that's a reasonable number of special events for the year.
I don't think we could make it until November 6th either. Maybe it would be best to start with Christmas like already suggested.
I tried to leave something and here it is xD All in all: Good job, guys ^^" My head is empty so I can't contribute anything special right now (not even ideas), sorry ...
