This year my Mom and I were contestants and the winners of our episode on "The Great Christmas Light Fight" on ABC. It was truly a great experience and a lot of fun to share in this experience together!

The display received two major additions this year, and it's the most themed show yet to date. After twelve years, the original Z-Tree has been replaced with a brand new version, the Pix-Z-Tree. It's a combination of my original Z-Tree with a pixel matrix hovering about 6" above the surface. It's a blend of the traditional and modern combined together to create a very three dimensional look. The tree is controlled by Madrix, which is triggered by Lightorama. The other addition is something I've wanted to do for years, an animatronic Santa Claus. He was totally built from the ground up, with the sculpting process beginning in April, and completed in September. The original pop-up elves were also replaced with the version I now sell through Season's Greeters. It was a very busy Summer, but I'm very happy with how everything turned out! I hope you enjoy the show!
