How long are your seasons?
I'm trying to decide if I should make my seasons longer. I would love to know what you think is the best length for seasons and why?

My holidays by week are (weeks running M-S because that's how I rotate):
Winter week 1: Winterfest Eve and Winterfest (I think Sat-Sun but might be Fri-Sat)
Winter week 2: Boxing Day (Mon) and Big Game Day (Sun)
Winter week 3: Cabin Fever Day (travel and polar plunge) & Festival of Lights (no idea which days without being in game)
Winter week 4: New Year's Eve... technically I also play New year's Day with the same family but it's the first Sunday of spring
Spring week 1: Love Day (mid-week) and Blossomfest (Sunday - basically Easter)
Spring week 2: none
Spring week 3: Fool's Day (mid-week)
Spring week 4: Parent's Day (Mothers and Fathers celebrate together, probably Sun)
Summer week 1: 4th of Memorial (Mon) This was created when I had my seasons shorter to get Memorial Day (remembrance) and 4th of July (fireworks) in the same day along with grilling and drinking for both
Summer week 2: Summer Break/Summer Vacation (the weekend, this is usually when my sims take vacations)
Summer week 3: none
Summer week 4: Summer's End (Fri) Like Labor Day, but on Friday so it's still summer.
Fall week 1: Creative Day (mid-week, uses skill building and gardening traditions)
Fall week 2: All Spook's Eve and Day of the Departed (I think Fri-Sat) Latter is more memorial, former is Halloween
Fall week 3: Anniversary Day (mid-week) since they don't remember individual anniversaries
Fall week 4: Harvestfest (Thurs)
Winter week 1: Winterfest Eve and Winterfest (I think Sat-Sun but might be Fri-Sat)
