For those wondering: (from a simple google search)

Three Kings Day is celebrated on January 6th, twelve days after Christmas. It is often viewed as the last day of the Christmas season (the end of the 12 days of Christmas).

I like to keep the decorations up until my birthday...January 21st. Way too long but I like the festive feeling.

We put lights and tinsel inside as we always do but are skipping a tree this year due to the new kitty. We are afraid his little curious butt will knock it over!
