Trying to think of stories set at Christmas that aren't Chirstmas stories, the first two things that leap to mind are Meet Me in St. Louis and Die Hard. Maybe I could think of more if I hadn't just woken up. Anyway, I personally think you could set it at Christmas while still leaving Christmas periphery. Then again, it sort of occurs to me that Christmas is something everyone has to deal with, so why not the people in your novel as well?
Nice photo. There's something vaguely mythical about it.
