Around this time of year, many houses put up holiday decorations, but there are a few houses that really stand out. In the Alafaya Woods neighborhood (1037 Brielle Ave) there is a house that does a Christmas light show, connected to the radio so it looks as if the lights are dancing in time with the music. There are other examples of houses in different neighborhoods that do this as well, and this one is open for videos and visits from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.
