San Diego Tour O' Lights: Step Into The Magic Of 'Christmas Town'

SAN DIEGO, CA — A glittering and interactive holiday display comes to life each night at a home in San Diego, thanks to two creative young minds.

From 5 to 9 p.m. on Tuesdays through Thursdays and 5 to 10 p.m. from Friday to Monday, visitors are invited to experience Christmas Town at 11972 Aspen View Court, San Diego. The home was. submitted by Jen for Patch's annual Tour O' Lights.

This display is the creation of Jen's two teenagers, whose hard work and imagination have turned their family’s yard into a must-see holiday destination in San Diego.

"I am submitting this for my 15-year-old son and 13-year-old daughter as they are the masterminds behind our Christmas display," Jen told Patch in an email.

On Aspen View Court, visitors will find a dazzling display of lights and handcrafted wooden decorations.

"Our lights are special because of all of the wooden characters we’ve made by hand," she said.

With 101 Dalmatians and more than 30 other characters from characters from Disney, Looney Tunes and more, Jen says "you’ll never run out of things to look at!"

Christmas Town also features two fun games for kids: Find the Woodstocks and Find the Bones, adding an interactive element to the experience.

How To Submit Your Home

Can the holiday lights on your home be seen from space? Does it look like the Las Vegas strip?
If you've spent days or weeks painstakingly hanging strands of lights on your house, palm trees and shrubs, or hauling multiple figurines out to your lawn — Patch wants to hear from you.

This month, we're compiling a Patch California Tour O' Lights, where readers can explore the best holiday light displays in California.

We aim to have the list up as soon as possible — so email photos and a description of your winter wonderland to Kat Schuster at kat.schuster@patch.com.

A few details:

• If you’re including a video, please upload it to YouTube and send us the link so we can embed it (make sure it's marked “public”). We also request that the homeowner submit their own yard or a close relative.
• We’ll keep updating the list for your neighborhood and county throughout December.
• Once you've provided the information — and submitted a photo or two or a video (after you uploaded it to YouTube) — you will be entered and included in our roundup.
• Pro-tip: If you haven't photographed your light display before, a good time to take photos is at dusk.
• IMPORTANT: By submitting a photo, you're allowing Patch to publish it for this feature and future stories. Photos should be original and taken by the person submitting the photo.
• So, be sure to check back for updates and sign up for your local Patch.com newsletters as well!
• Please copy and paste the following information into an email, along with photos or videos, and follow these guidelines:
• Include the exact address of the yard display and your phone number (not for publication) in case we need to get in touch with you.
• Let us know the dates when your holiday display goes live and when it shuts off for the evening.
• Does your winter wonderland have a name? Be sure to include it, or we can help you make one up.
• Tell us what makes your twinkly lights special. Will you be planning anything special for your display, like Santa or other holiday characters, FM frequencies for your synchronized light show, walk-throughs, popcorn machines, etc.?
• Does your display have a Facebook page or website? Be sure to include the links.

We’re looking forward to hearing from you. Remember, email Kat Schuster (kat.schuster@patch.com) to submit photos of your holiday lights.
