My first thought was, “Aww, that’s cute”. Then I thought “I wonder if they’ve ever put a Christmas tree there”. Then it clicked. Of course not! That’s too “Christmasy” and definitely not generic enough to represent all holidays celebrated this time of year.

But then I thought, is a snowman an less Christmasy than a tree?? I mean, do other religious celebrations include snowmen? Sure, I know anyone can build a snowman, but this was obviously Frosty and that means Christmas, right?
