It had more to do with just being 12 days before Christmas. I thought the 12 days of Christmas blah was about the 12 days after Christmas, starting on Christmas day?
You take your tree down 12 days after Christmas and there are arguments every year as to when the 12th day is. I have always followed the belief that Christmas Day is the 1st day of Christmas.
Christmas eve is the "eve" of Christmas so therefore Christmas day is the first day of Christmas.
