We always leave our Christmas up until Jan 6th. And we do get odd looks here in the south where it’s considered bad luck to leave it up after Dec 31st

We do the same at home. In fact, I could see a good number of houses in our neighborhood with their outdoor Christmas decorations still up (and the lights still on) as of last night.

That’s interesting. I didn’t know it was bad luck. I was raised in MS and have lived in Louisiana all my adult life. I just can’t consider taking down my nativity until after January 6. I just can’t! Then all the King Cakes start just after one makes all those new year resolutions. Had apple King Cake in the store the other day - Yum-smack, smack good!
