This all depends on the individual family, as there is no Mormon religious custom about holiday decorations. Some families like to leave their Christmas decorations up longer than others.

I grew up a Mormon, and we always took our Christmas decorations down the day after Christmas. Now that I am grown, I usually take my Christmas decorations down on New Years Day. Most facilities owned by the Mormon Church that decorate for Christmas take their decorations down shortly after New Years Day, which is customary for most people in the United States. Maybe the Mormons you know are either too lazy to take down their Christmas decorations, or they love Christmas so much that they don't want to take them down?
