It is fun to think about all of the different arrangements and wordings people have put with that song all through the years. <br /><br />What I didn't know about the Twelve Days of Christmas UNTIL I became an adult was that the 'actual' 12 days are the days between Dec. 25 - Jan. 6 (when the wise men come to the manger). That's why certain denominations (Catholic and Episcopalians) celebrate Christmas ALL the way until Jan. 6---leaving their decorations up until that time. We always took ours down on or before Jan 1st. <br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4903038577180864575.post-7545811288607410332009-12-29T10:53:38.359-06:002009-12-29T10:53:38.359-06:00Isn't it interesting to discover where memorie...Isn't it interesting to discover where memories will take us?
