It was Yule a few thousand years before it was Christmas, But thank you for the sentiment.

Thanks. That's a lot of Holidays.....

And second comment is true! If memory serves correctly, it's actually a pagan Druid ritual/tradition celebrating the refreshing and newness of Mother Earth by the changing seasons and the life giving energy of teh sun that was taken over by Christians to celebrate the birth of Christ (which by most accounts was probably NOT born in our traditional December).
