You may have seen the ABC show The Great Christmas Light Fight and been inspired by the stunning Christmas displays. It’s where family's nationwide get to compete to see who did it best.
Austin's own Maywald family hopes to claim that title.
“For the show I applied two years ago, from the first season I said I want to be on that show and my parents were like no we're not going to be on that show,” said Jordan Maywald, put together Christmas display.
But 20-year-old Jordan Maywald was persistent, putting up Christmas decorations is something he's passionate about, so he didn't give up.
“In August, I got the call saying you were selected and I mean here's still no words,” said Maywald. “Every light decorators dream is to be on that show."
He’s put up about 120,000 lights and it took about four months to put it all together, but when the lights come on that's when the hard work really pays off.
The best part is that it’s all for a good cause.
“Our goal is around $10,000 again this year,” said Maywald.
Anyone can come and see the lights for free, but people are encouraged to donate and the money raised goes to help the local make a wish foundation.
For Jordan, all of this is a dream come true.
“When you're so young you just want to be that house day,” said Maywald. So, I guess we are that house now and will be that house forever and it just puts a smile on everybody's face."
If the Maywald’s win they win a huge trophy and $50,000. You can watch their episode in December of next year.
