Until the Roman Catholic feast day of January 6, the time when the Wise Men arrived in Bethlehem to see the baby Jesus, the Mexicans traditionally keep up their Christmas decorations. We arrived in time to see some of the festive street decorations and holiday trimmings. This photo shows the front patio of a home in Plaza Machado where the creche is still visible--a home I would love to see. (I'm working on it!)

That's a neat tradition! I like those Mexican decorations. Have fun in the warm climate.
Well, there you are...finally. You sound like a happy camper ;-)
Love your new banner!
This is a very pretty scene....we take our decorations down on Epiphany as well....although I am a little slow as they are not down yet!!!!
What a beautiful looking home. The decorations are great!! Looks like you folks are out and about already! Have fun :)

These Christmas decorations are beautiful.
Very nice decoration and beautiful porch, too!
I love Christmas, so I think it's great to keep the holiday spirit going in to the new year!
Wow...those are great decorations! And definitely a neat tradition. My tree is still up....but not because of tradition...just too much going on right now...hopefully I'll get it down this weekend :)
