The readings at Daily Mass are still from Christmas. The priest’s vestments are still the glorious silver or gold, or possibly white.

Our decorations stay up and lit until the 6th...they get pretty lonely after Jan. 1!

I was certainly relieved years ago when I learned that the 12 days of Christmas are from Christmas to Epiphany (since I'm always late getting out gifts ;). As a child, my mother always left the tree and decorations up until the weekend nearest Epiphany. My kids get annoyed when they see people taking their decorations down early.

Thanks for the Epiphany House Blessing. I almost forgot about it. (I did last year, unfortunately).
