00:00These are the keys.
00:02I have 27 storage facilities,
00:05about $10 million in Christmas decor.
00:08I forgot about this robot.
00:10More is always more.
00:11My rough estimate about how many blow molds I have
00:14is close to about a thousand.
00:17It's not a race, dad.
00:18Don't worry about me.
00:19You make sure their straps are tight.
00:20You know, you got these guys.
00:22You want the one in the back?
00:24That one way in the back.
00:25Oh, okay.
00:26I'll give you your whole garage back
00:28if we get it on the tree.
00:29D-tree?
00:30That tree, like, 5,000 bucks?
00:32Yes.
00:41Let's go.
00:41Hurry up, Ricky D!
00:42I'm hurrying, honey.
00:44We're here.
00:45We made it to the Christmas store.
00:47The best place in the world.
00:48I guess it is.
00:49Let's do it.
00:50You ready to spend some money?
00:50Let's go.
00:51Excuse me?
00:53I'll do this.
00:54Where do you leave?
00:55What?
00:55OK, go ahead.
00:56Get you one.
00:57We're playing.
00:58We need two?
00:59We might need four.
01:00I think one is good enough.
01:02Oh, my God.
01:03Look at this black and gold.
01:06OK.
01:07I'm Ricardo.
01:08I'm Candace.
01:09We've been married for five years.
01:11And we love some Christmas.
01:12I was drawn in.
01:14Mm-hmm.
01:16Mm-hmm.
01:17Ricky D. Oh, my goodness.
01:18Look at this, Reeve.
01:19See?
01:20This is perfect for the house.
01:20I did.
01:21Yeah.
01:21Christmas home tour.
01:22All the guests can take selfies.
01:24Every year, we have a Christmas home tour.
01:27You have to purchase a ticket.
01:28And that raises money for different charities.
01:31We always ask our guests to bring, like, socks, underwear.
01:35And then also, I do another thing for the Galveston County Food Bank.
01:38So we always ask to bring canned goods.
01:41This is our nutcracker theme.
01:43And this is my bride and joy, our nine-footer.
01:46A little fun fact, this was my next-door neighbor's tree.
01:49They had threw it out on the curb.
01:51And I took it.
01:52And it's a fabulous tree now.
01:55This is our New Year's room.
01:57We incorporated an upside-down tree.
01:59Super cute.
02:00And we have a little champagne bar here.
02:03This is my daughter, Sierra's room.
02:05This one has the sugar plum fairy, the Papa Noel, the unicorns.
02:12When people come inside my home, I just
02:14want them to feel like this is somewhere I've never seen before.
02:18To see the smiles brings me tons of joy.
02:21And that's my passion.
02:22This is our lovely kitchen nook.
02:24There has our peppermint candy filled.
02:26And we're going to come over here to our lovely stove
02:28where they'll have our little baked goods.
02:31Are you able to eat in your own kitchen?
02:35I can eat in the kitchen if I'm standing up,
02:38because there's hardly any space in there.
02:41Everywhere it's covered in the kitchen.
02:42In the oven, it's filled with pies that you can't eat.
02:46The countertops all filled with Christmas stuff.
02:48We lose the dining room table.
02:50We lose every place in the house to where it should be livable for like nine months.
02:57We start Christmas in June, July, August, September, October, November, December, January.
03:07We're still going.
03:08February, Valentine's.
03:10The shift.
03:11And she starts changing the house over.
03:13Yeah.
03:14Do we have a game plan?
03:15The plan is we shop.
03:16Hello?
03:17We pick for every room.
03:19Every room is a different theme each year.
03:22Okay.
03:23And I'm looking for my tree.
03:25All right.
03:26My regular full-time job is a surgical technologist.
03:29I work in labor and delivery.
03:30I'm retired from, you know, doing insurance, and I also play music.
03:34That's a really nice piece there, honey, right there, right here, right behind you.
03:38You're missing it.
03:39I'm missing it.
03:40You missed that?
03:41I saw it.
03:42It's beautiful.
03:43So I started decorating in 2013, and I went to a department store.
03:47I had bought a flower arrangement.
03:48I was like, oh, this is super cute.
03:50And then from that one little flower arrangement, just expanded.
03:54She loves it.
03:55As I should think about, yes, it never stops.
03:58I'm on a whole nother level.
04:02Let's put it in your basket.
04:04OK.
04:06What do we need it for?
04:07The candy shop.
04:07You can use this downstairs.
04:09OK.
04:09The sweet shop.
04:10Being with her at the store, it feels
04:12good to enjoy being there.
04:14And the fact that I have to make sure that we don't go over budget,
04:17even though we don't have a budget.
04:19You know, we just be sensible about how we spend our money.
04:23If you didn't have a budget or a restraint,
04:25wouldn't you want the whole store?
04:26Yes.
04:28The whole entire store.
04:32We've got plenty of stuff.
04:33Are we close to leaving?
04:34No, no, I'm looking for this tree.
04:36For the trees?
04:37A tree, a specific tree.
04:39That's a tree right there.
04:40That's the tree over there.
04:41That is not the tree that I really want.
04:42This is the tree that I really want.
04:43Let me see the tree you want.
04:45Is it not fat?
04:45Look at the little arms.
04:47That's a really nice tree.
04:48It has a little face on there with the little ballerina.
04:51It's super cute.
04:52I love it.
04:54And I just really, really want the tree.
04:55I've always wanted it for like two years now.
04:59How big is that tree?
05:00It's about a seven footer.
05:01No worries.
05:01Is it about seven footer?
05:02OK.
05:03OK.
05:04I'm afraid to ask how much.
05:05So don't answer that.
05:06OK.
05:07$500.
05:08Cool.
05:09Add a zero to it.
05:11How much?
05:12One, two, three, four, five.
05:13And then.
05:14Add a zero.
05:15OK.
05:16But I'm sure they got a tree outside.
05:17I am positive they got one that you're going to love.
05:19Hoping that it would go down on the price, but it's staying strong on that price.
05:25He's not impressed.
05:26$5,000?
05:27Yes, sir.
05:28Hmm.
05:29That's a special tree.
05:30It's a beautiful tree.
05:31I need it in my life.
05:32You do, too.
05:33No way I can convince you to get one of these trees versus that tree.
05:35No.
05:36It's obsession.
05:37It's over the top.
05:38But it's what she loves.
05:39I get it.
05:40I've been there in another area, which is music.
05:42You know, sometimes it drives me crazy.
05:45I don't know.
05:46I don't know.
05:47I don't know.
05:48I don't know.
05:49I don't know.
05:50I don't know.
05:51I don't know.
05:52I don't know.
05:53Sometimes it drives me crazy.
05:55But you know what?
05:56Makes her happy.
05:57Oh, my goodness.
05:58This is what we need right here, Ricardo.
06:01This is the place to be.
06:03Okay.
06:04Oh, I have to get these, too.
06:05Yup.
06:06Gotta go in the cart.
06:07Okay.
06:08The llama.
06:09This is going perfect with the circus thing.
06:12Why did I tell you that?
06:14And then the giraffe.
06:16How cute is this?
06:18Wow.
06:19You gotta have mine.
06:20Whoa.
06:21Great for pics.
06:22Put that right there.
06:23Okay.
06:24I never have too many.
06:25Uh-huh.
06:26I don't know what you're gonna do with them, but okay.
06:27Those are cute.
06:28In the kitchen.
06:29To me, I don't have enough decorations.
06:34All usable space in the attic is full.
06:37All the space in the one, two, three garages is full.
06:43There's no room for anything.
06:44Some closets.
06:45Huh?
06:46I just want to support you today, so I'm not gonna cut you too short,
06:49but you're getting close to your budget.
06:52You're getting very close to your budget.
06:53A budget?
06:54I'm sorry.
06:55Yes.
06:56Since when do we ever have a budget?
06:57Uh, today.
06:58I'd probably spend about a good $10,000 to $15,000 per year.
07:06Or $20,000.
07:09Don't tell my husband.
07:11Check out this camel.
07:13Okay.
07:14Oh, my God.
07:15We gotta get it.
07:16We gotta put it in the basket.
07:17Purchasing an item that you really, really want is a rush.
07:21It's kinda like a high in a way.
07:23Yay!
07:24I know we came here for one thing, but it looked like we bought the whole store.
07:27Oh, we didn't even break the bank!
07:29She's got it bad.
07:31There's no medication that can help her with that.
07:34I got a couple more things I wanna get.
07:36Is that right?
07:37Yeah.
07:38I don't know where we're gonna put it, but okay.
07:40So, I think at the end of the day, we know we are so limited with time right now.
07:52We've got to focus on the kid, family-friendly element.
07:56Yes.
07:57So, my name is Brian.
07:58My name is Chelsea.
07:59We own Santa's Helpers Design, and we are the only Christmas rental company in Las Vegas
08:04that specializes in all Christmas, all year long.
08:08Essentially, if you want large, crazy, over-the-top Christmas installs, I am the guy that you called.
08:15Our Santa's Secret install, obviously, in what are we-
08:18Just a couple weeks.
08:19Yeah, literally in a couple weeks.
08:21And, you know, being that it's always been an adult theme, we've never really focused
08:25on the aspect of family there.
08:27That is a huge thing.
08:28We have not done that before, but this year, that is the goal.
08:33So, what interactive moments or things can we do to sort of bring the family in?
08:39The candy land needs to be expanded.
08:41Chelsea and I met 15 years ago through an old best friend of mine, and we've actually
08:46now been best friends and lived together for 15 years.
08:50What is that word when two people are, like, super attached to each other?
08:54In love.
08:55No, definitely not that.
08:56It's, um, codependent.
08:58Oh, yeah, we're so codependent.
08:59Absolutely.
09:00Super codependent of each other.
09:01Yeah.
09:02Yeah.
09:03I know that we've got some things in our personal inventory, because, obviously, I already did
09:07a sweet shop in the living room.
09:08Yeah.
09:09So, actually, let's go over there and see if there's some key things that are in there
09:12that maybe we even might want to bring with us.
09:15Oh, yeah.
09:16Let's write something down.
09:17Yeah, I gotta write it down.
09:19So, I have about 27 storage facilities around the United States, 17 here in Vegas.
09:25In retail value, there's probably close to $10 million in Christmas decor.
09:31I mean, it is a lot.
09:34It's already kid-friendly, but I think we can add our new animatronic guy.
09:38I mean, he's a chef.
09:39Right, he's great.
09:40He's great.
09:41I mean, for sure.
09:42We might as well take these macaroons out of the tree, and there's five of those guys
09:46in there.
09:47Okay.
09:48Christmas is always happening, whether it's physically in the house or we're at our storage
09:53units.
09:54I did, this year, decide that I wanted to decorate the living room, and I said, let's
09:57just do it Candyland, not thinking about the fact that we actually wanted, yeah, we have
10:02product in here.
10:03All of these things can be used in LA.
10:05But we don't need all of it.
10:08No.
10:09But we do.
10:11Here's one spoon.
10:12We need the spoons?
10:13Okay, we need the spoons.
10:14Wait, we got one down there by you, so that's two.
10:15All right, two spoons.
10:16Two spoons.
10:17Is there, wait, no, here's a turquoise one.
10:18That's three.
10:19There's three spoons.
10:20That's three of those.
10:21Stop it.
10:22And these gold finials, because even if we don't use these in the sweet shop, these
10:25would be really pretty in the angel installation.
10:27Okay.
10:28And there's two of those, and then there's the two that have the rhinestones on them.
10:32Okay, so that's four.
10:33Is that, oh, that's it?
10:34I think that that's about it.
10:35That's it.
10:36Oh, no, wait.
10:37There's this big package.
10:38Of course there's more.
10:39Okay, big package.
10:40There's one more of the larger package.
10:41All right.
10:42We got it?
10:43All right.
10:44And I'm just going to put it in the room.
10:45And I'm just going to put it in the room for a few minutes and just making sure that we
10:49are making money and growing our business.
10:50And I don't know if reining Brian in is definitely something I would ever succeed in, but I do attempt to try.
10:58I'm just not sure.
10:59I'm really not.
11:00What do you mean you're not sure?
11:01I'm not sure of the space.
11:02I'm not sure of the time.
11:03But we always know at the end of the day that we end up bringing more, and if we have
11:07to pull back, then we have to pull back, but I would rather have.
11:10Surprise.
11:11Surprise!
11:12I'm back.
11:13Hey!
11:14Babe, you're home.
11:15Yeah.
11:16I got let go early.
11:18Very early.
11:19Hi, honey.
11:20My name is Mark.
11:21Chelsea is my wife.
11:23We've been together about five years, and I'm a traveling chef.
11:27It has started.
11:29It's for, you know, L.A.
11:31Time to bring more stuff out.
11:33When?
11:35Well, actually, in the next, like, three to five days, probably, is when we have to get
11:40everything, like, really, really finished over there.
11:45I joke, but it is kind of a real thing where I say that Brian is my husband and Mark is
11:53my boyfriend because my relationship with Brian can be snappy and we fight and then we get
12:00over it, but there's love there where my relationship with Mark is ever-loving and peaceful.
12:10And the next, like, three to five days, we've got to get stuff from the storages and we've
12:18got to load them up in the truck and get them out there and, like...
12:21But I'm so happy you're home.
12:23Yeah.
12:24It's exciting.
12:25Sometimes I wish Chelsea and I had more of our own space without Brian, without Christmas.
12:33Usually, I feel like the odd man out.
12:36Okay.
12:37Well, no.
12:38I mean, I think that's amazing.
12:40Yeah.
12:41I love it.
12:42Yeah.
12:43I love it.
12:44Maybe you can help us with the storages if we need it, like, with loading.
12:50Yeah, for sure.
12:52I'll give you your whole garage back if we get it on the tree.
12:59That tree, like, 5,000 bucks?
13:01Yes.
13:03I don't even remember what's in all of these.
13:06The storage fee bill is $9,000 a month.
13:09Here, grab this.
13:11Just be careful.
13:12Don't drive too fast.
13:13Looks like Santa's giving birth.
13:15I'm really excited about this.
13:22Watch your step over there, too.
13:23Yeah, it's pretty neat.
13:24Not that heavy.
13:25It's pretty huge.
13:26It's huge.
13:27But, uh...
13:28How'd you find out about this?
13:29I found it online.
13:30This church here was getting rid of it.
13:32Wow.
13:33What a great find.
13:34And it's nice and big.
13:35We need some more big pieces in there.
13:36Yeah, it takes up some space.
13:37My name's Eric.
13:38I'm 25, and I love Christmas.
13:41My passion for Christmas started when I was a kid.
13:44Every year, going to different houses,
13:46seeing the joy on people's faces of, like,
13:48how big some of their displays are,
13:50I always thought, like,
13:52hey, one day I can probably do that
13:53and put a smile on someone's face.
13:55Three, two, one!
14:02So, I started this display at 11 years old.
14:07He had a real passion for it when he was a little kid.
14:10If we were driving down the road,
14:12he would look and see displays,
14:14and we'd have to stop and go down there and look at them.
14:16And that kind of triggered things from there.
14:18I just love how old he is.
14:19I like a lot of the vintage stuff.
14:21My display's different.
14:22You can't really find this stuff anywhere else.
14:24I love blow molds because they're so old,
14:26and they don't really weather much.
14:28As you can see, it's cluttered back here.
14:29You kind of gotta just dive right in.
14:32Ugh.
14:36Here's one of the choir people.
14:38They are creepy.
14:39Their heads come right off,
14:40so it's easier to store.
14:42He could talk about blow molds for four hours.
14:45It's overwhelming.
14:47Stay.
14:48One question everybody asks,
14:49where do you store everything?
14:50Well, are displays that we have double as storage?
14:53My rough estimate about how many blow molds I have
14:55is probably close to about 1,000.
14:58Oh, jeez.
15:01This guy's another white bear.
15:03He's a rarer one.
15:04So I work in HVAC.
15:05I'm an account of a contractor.
15:07Some of that money does go to the display and collection.
15:11But I try to negotiate with people.
15:13I like buying stuff in bulk.
15:17Oh, .
15:20The decorations to me just mean Christmas,
15:22and I just, I love it.
15:23I think the collection needs to keep growing.
15:25What do you think?
15:26I think we're gonna start using your room as storage
15:28and you can sleep in the driveway.
15:30You'll be sleeping with all the blow molds.
15:32I need some land if I end up moving.
15:35I think when we secure it,
15:37we gotta wrap it around the legs here.
15:39And the head.
15:40Maybe around the head, the body.
15:42All right, grab it.
15:43Yeah, grab it like here.
15:45Now we gotta try and get this.
15:47Okay.
15:48Set it on its feet.
15:49Santa!
15:50Santa!
15:51I initially got involved with it
15:56because I wanna support him.
15:57This is his passion.
15:58And I'll admit it's frustrating at times
16:00when he gets a ton of stuff.
16:02I'm coming home opening the garage door
16:04thinking I can back my truck into here.
16:08But we're loaded up with Christmas displays.
16:11But he's got me roped into this.
16:14Just be careful.
16:15Don't drive too fast.
16:17Don't turn into your mother on.
16:18This is not a replaceable.
16:20Watch out for the stop sign.
16:21Stop.
16:22I'm gonna stop.
16:23I'm really excited about the Santa.
16:24It's not a race, Dad.
16:25Easy.
16:26Don't worry about me.
16:27You make sure the straps are feeling nice and tight.
16:30Oh yeah, I feel them.
16:31He's unique.
16:32Not many people have them.
16:33Which is what I try to go for.
16:34Something different.
16:35Oh, there's a bump there.
16:36I know.
16:37I know.
16:38Let's rock around.
16:39I can't imagine what the people are thinking right now.
16:41And brings joy to people and is like, wow, that's huge.
16:44Like, that is cool.
16:45I want one of them.
16:47They're like, look a load of this guy.
16:50We're definitely putting smiles on people's faces.
16:54Hello.
16:55Hello.
16:56You guys got to come outside and see this.
16:57Okay.
16:58We'll be right out.
17:00All right.
17:01We made it.
17:02All one piece.
17:03Yeah.
17:04What the heck is this?
17:05Don't you like him?
17:06He's awesome.
17:07Yeah.
17:08Looks like Santa's giving birth.
17:10Each year I want to make the display bigger and better.
17:13Okay.
17:14Hold on.
17:15Okay.
17:16Because a lot of people look forward to it.
17:17And I don't want to let them down.
17:21Here we go.
17:22Oh, that's good.
17:23That's good.
17:24I guess we're going big this year.
17:25It's going to be a big year.
17:31Oh my goodness.
17:32I got this great idea for the thing.
17:34I know.
17:35Feed for the backyard this year for Christmas home decor.
17:38So what do I have to do?
17:40Ah, you got to give me a couple things.
17:42Uh-huh.
17:43In the back.
17:44Uh, what do you want?
17:45I'm going to need a couple nutcrackers and a couple lamps in the back as well.
17:50Okay.
17:51You understand how much work I got to do just to get those out, right?
17:54That's not that much work.
17:55It's a couple of totes.
17:56I guess.
17:57All right.
17:58Let me get this tote so you can get through.
18:00Yeah, I got it.
18:01All right.
18:02I'm going to do this the easy way.
18:04This is a lot.
18:05This is a lot.
18:06We have a three-car garage and not one car in the garage.
18:09Not one.
18:10Oh, I love to decorate.
18:13And then I just kept on adding more and more to my collection.
18:18And then I think I got a little out of hand.
18:22A little?
18:23Just a little bit.
18:25You want the one in the back?
18:26That one way in the back.
18:27Oh, okay.
18:28Forget about this.
18:29I can't wait to put it up.
18:31Honey, stay focused.
18:32Stay focused.
18:33It's a lot.
18:34It's a lot.
18:35Listen.
18:36It's a word for it.
18:41What is it?
18:42Go ahead.
18:43Express yourself, Ricky D.
18:45Wait.
18:46Oh, my goodness.
18:47I didn't even know I had all this good stuff.
18:49Look at this stuff.
18:50This stuff haven't even been used yet.
18:51Oh, my.
18:52That's a good garlic.
18:53Must have got it last year.
18:54Huh.
18:55Got everything you need.
18:56More than enough.
18:57Not enough.
18:58Ah.
18:59You know what I really, really want?
19:00What?
19:01It's the massive tree.
19:02That tree like five?
19:03Mm-hmm.
19:04Yes.
19:05The tree.
19:06The massive tree.
19:08This is the new tree that I've loved for almost two years.
19:12I mean, it's different.
19:13It's unique.
19:14It'd be a great wow factor.
19:16We don't have any way of space to put it in the garage.
19:18I'll make a deal.
19:19What's the deal?
19:20I'll give you your whole garage back if we get it on the tree.
19:28I'll make a deal.
19:29What's the deal?
19:30I'll give you your whole garage back if we get it on the tree.
19:33You do what?
19:34Yeah.
19:35I'll give you the whole garage back.
19:36You can park both of your vehicles in here.
19:38If I can have the whole garage, consider that tree done.
19:42Okay, let's shake on it.
19:43I'll give you a hug.
19:44Oh, okay.
19:45We're going to hug you out.
19:46How did I get stuck carrying the drum?
19:48You said you wanted to carry the drum.
19:49I almost look at Sarah almost as like a sister to me, even though she's my brother's girlfriend.
20:03We all grew up together.
20:05She helps out with display.
20:06She helps with painting and anything I need help with.
20:10I think that's good, right?
20:11Yeah, I like the angle too.
20:13People walk in and they see it.
20:14That way people can get a picture in front of it.
20:16All right, we'll bring more stuff out.
20:18It takes around three months to put up my display, but I'm always fiddling around with something even during the season.
20:24Hopefully there's no animals in here.
20:26These are the big, big stuff.
20:28Municipal race.
20:29I'm always a season ahead, which people don't realize.
20:32So like I've kind of already have an idea for this year.
20:35And then once I get that all up, I'm ready for next year.
20:37Oh, I like that actually.
20:39You look small though.
20:40I know.
20:41I think yes, it is an obsession.
20:43I think it's also an addiction in a way.
20:46It's always on my mind how I can make it bigger, how I can make it better.
20:49Even in the off season, I try to zone out a little bit and be like, hey, Eric, take a break.
20:55But you have to with this.
20:57You have to be all year round.
20:59I love the Santa, but I think we need more.
21:03Yes.
21:04And then we'll get, maybe we'll make something, get something else.
21:07I want it to pop this year.
21:08I'm thinking huge.
21:10Something unheard of.
21:12A lot going on here.
21:14What do you think of the Santa on the drum?
21:16It looks good.
21:17This is it or?
21:19No, I think we've got one more big thing.
21:21I think we should do a Ferris wheel.
21:22A Ferris wheel?
21:23Yeah.
21:24Operating Ferris wheel.
21:26Yeah.
21:27And what were you thinking of making that out of?
21:32Probably PVC.
21:33Okay.
21:34All right.
21:35Santa is good, but I don't think it's a nut.
21:39I knew that was common.
21:40I totally knew that was common.
21:41There's always more.
21:42I see the smoke coming out of your ears.
21:44So what's your vision?
21:45We get like battery operated lights, make it about like 20 feet tall.
21:50Well, he's about...
21:51You don't go small, do you?
21:52No, never.
21:53Why would I?
21:54Okay.
21:55Yeah.
21:56All right.
21:57Put baskets on it.
21:58And we get like an electric, some type of motor?
21:59Yeah.
22:00Probably.
22:01Okay.
22:02We could do that.
22:03Make sure for something that big that the motor's powerful enough and make sure our measurements
22:08are 100% on tack.
22:10You definitely went bigger.
22:11He's always got a challenge.
22:12Always bigger and better.
22:13I don't get an easy size.
22:14Gotta work hard here.
22:15All right.
22:22Babe, this was such a good surprise.
22:24I can't even believe that you're here.
22:27I know.
22:28Well, I figured, you know, we got done early, so might as well come home and surprise you,
22:32see you, missed you.
22:33So today I'm dragging Mark along with me to our storage units for more pieces for our
22:40LA installation.
22:41I'm here for a couple of days, so maybe we can peel away and get some dinner or something.
22:47That, well, that sounds lovely.
22:50That sounds really lovely.
22:52I just, I'm just not sure if we're going to be able to.
22:55You know, Chelsea is busy with her job and I'm busy with mine, so I wanted to be able
23:02to spend a little bit of time with her.
23:04I just love her very much, so I want to be where she is in the space that she is with
23:10whatever she wants to do and whoever she wants to do that with.
23:15Hey, did you grab the key?
23:20Oh, I got the keys.
23:23Thank God you color coordinated them or we would have never figured out how to make this
23:26happen.
23:28My name is Trevor and I am friends with Brian and Chelsea and I was initially brought on
23:33just to help with installs last season.
23:35That quickly became traveling around to the storage units and organizing all of those.
23:40Actually, let's open, let's open the other unit.
23:46I haven't been in here in a minute.
23:48These are the keys.
23:50Crazy enough, this is probably five pounds of keys.
23:53All right, we've got to find for LA specifically what we want to grab.
23:57Obviously, we've got nutcrackers.
23:59These must be candy canes.
24:01Candy canes, signs, posts, things like that.
24:04Well, Chelsea and I, we really want to build on the sweet shop aspect of things, but between
24:08you and I, she always thinks I'm so over the top with everything.
24:11I kind of think the more is going to be more at the end of the day.
24:14Sure.
24:15I think we just start pulling some pieces and load up.
24:17I think we start pulling some pieces.
24:21Okay, the amount of Christmas and not only the mass amount of it, but like the sheer
24:26size of these things is incredible.
24:28Here, grab this.
24:29We still have to grab stuff from the other units too, so remember that.
24:32It's a lot.
24:35I forgot about this robot.
24:38Okay.
24:39I just can't even remember the last time it was just the two of us, you know?
24:44I can't either, but I hear you.
24:48Yeah.
24:49I hear what you're saying.
24:51I will try to find the time, but it's Christmas already.
24:56It's September.
24:58Well...
25:02What happened to Candyland?
25:04These are candy canes.
25:05This is where the scandal happens.
25:07She's here!
25:08Bring it in.
25:09Bring it in.
25:10I probably scared the delivery man.
25:11You guys ready to turn it on?
25:12Yeah!
25:13Yeah!
25:14Three, two, one!
25:23I love my nutcrackers.
25:24Oh, what about the penguin?
25:26Yes, for sure the penguin.
25:28The mission today at the storage units is basically I have several lands that I have to fill with more product.
25:34So I need to just kind of rummage through and just grab things that I know we can use at the install in LA.
25:41Candy canes!
25:42I want to grab one of the six foot as well.
25:45Ugh!
25:46I forgot we had this one.
25:47We can hang this one from the ceiling as well.
25:49Hi.
25:50Hi.
25:51What's up?
25:52We're here to help.
25:53Oh, thank God.
25:54Oh, yeah.
25:55What happened to Candy Land?
25:57This is not just Candy Land.
25:59Some of these things can go in candy.
26:00I mean, these are candy canes.
26:02This is where the scandal happens.
26:04I know we kind of talked about like obviously with the sweet shop grabbing things.
26:07Right.
26:08I think inevitably we're going to want to move some stuff around.
26:11Bryan's design aesthetic is always more is more.
26:14Here, grab that one.
26:15There you go.
26:16Do we want to grab the big one too or do you think these are good?
26:18No, these are good.
26:19These are good?
26:20And although I would love to put a cap on things, there's no limit and there's also no stopping them.
26:28Yeah.
26:29Okay, let's see.
26:30What?
26:31No, nothing.
26:32Well, look at the size of the truck.
26:34We need to fill it.
26:35We've got like 8,000 square feet of space.
26:37I mean, it looks pretty full to me.
26:40Like maybe we could get out of here.
26:43Well, I mean, do you have something?
26:45I mean, if you guys have something else you want to do, it's fine.
26:47I mean, we can.
26:48We'll finish this stuff.
26:49I think we, I mean, we've got the whole other truck still.
26:51Like there's definitely more that we need to like get in there.
26:56I think.
26:58Okay.
26:59Let's do it.
27:00I can't even tell you how much we have.
27:08Too much.
27:09I don't even remember what's in all of these.
27:14Every single storage facility all the way to the ceiling and they're all 20 foot tall ceilings.
27:19The storage fee bill is pretty high at $9,000 a month.
27:24Is that stressful?
27:26Making sure that in six weeks we are making the amount of money that we need to make is extremely stressful.
27:34I know that there's a lot of ornaments in here that we can use, but I don't think we need to grab them right now.
27:39Yeah.
27:40At the end of the day, you know, I'm spending well over $100,000 a year to store and to maintain things that sit for 46 weeks out of the year in dark facilities that are doing absolutely nothing.
27:56Should we grab a couple of the light structures?
27:59We're going to need more chucks.
28:01We're going to have to stop him.
28:03We're going to have to stop him.
28:19Oh, my goodness.
28:20She's here.
28:21Hello.
28:22Hello.
28:23You have it.
28:24Oh, my God.
28:25You have my baby.
28:26This is the tree that I always wanted my whole entire life.
28:28This is amazing.
28:29Do you understand?
28:30Can I get you the sign for?
28:31Bring it in.
28:32All right.
28:33All right.
28:34This is my dream tree.
28:35I have to have that tree because I believe that.
28:37I deserve it, and I've been wanting it for two years, and it's time.
28:42Be careful.
28:43Be careful.
28:44Bring it on down.
28:45Bring it on down.
28:46Can I get your signature?
28:47Sure, sure, sure.
28:48I want to open it and see, you know, before I sign.
28:49All right.
28:50Okay.
28:51Is that all right?
28:52Yeah.
28:53Oh, there it is.
28:54What's that?
28:55Oh, wow.
28:56Okay.
28:57Help me out.
28:58Okay.
28:59All right.
29:00We made a deal.
29:01If we get the tree, I will give him half of the garage.
29:06I'll give you your whole garage back if we get the tree.
29:10And eventually, I'm going to get his garage back, so.
29:13I'm happy, so he should be happy.
29:16Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
29:18Yeah, it's a tree.
29:19Can I get you the sign now?
29:21In a minute.
29:22In a minute.
29:23Okay.
29:24Everything is all together.
29:25Okay.
29:26You got to feel the Christmas spirit.
29:28Do you feel it?
29:29Yes, ma'am.
29:32So, if I could just get the signature, I'll be on my way.
29:35Okay.
29:36Wait, wait, wait, wait.
29:37Stand back.
29:38Stand back.
29:39Stand back.
29:40She's a beauty, isn't she?
29:41Yeah.
29:42She's a beaut.
29:43It's fabulous.
29:44Let's take selfies.
29:45Okay.
29:46Don't be shy.
29:49Yes.
29:50Merry Christmas.
29:51I do have other.
29:52I got to make some other deliveries.
29:53They'll be okay.
29:54They'll be okay.
29:55Did you tell Ricardo about buying it?
29:58I did not tell him about buying it.
30:01We'll worry about it on the back end.
30:04Let me get you.
30:05Let me get you.
30:06Don't get in there.
30:07I'll send it to you.
30:09Us two.
30:10It's with the tree.
30:13I probably scared the delivery man.
30:15He probably wasn't that excited, but I was excited.
30:19All right.
30:20Have a great day.
30:23Oh my God.
30:24I'm in heaven.
30:32I need to make the display bigger, better, and different this year.
30:35Because we have a lot of people that come back, and they look forward to it.
30:38And I always tell them we have a lot of new things planned.
30:41You don't really see Ferris wheels in a display like this.
30:43And I want to be that display that has it.
30:45Here we go.
30:46Okay.
30:47You got that.
30:48Right.
30:49Grab the back.
30:50So we have it up.
30:51Wow.
30:52It's so much bigger than I thought it was.
30:53This is awesome.
30:54I'm going to wait for it to go up.
30:55It's going to be cool.
30:56And see it at night.
30:57He's excited.
30:58I have to bring him down a little bit and get him lined up with the practical part of what
31:01he wants.
31:02I just want to bounce it and see it spin.
31:04Okay.
31:05Because that's going to tell us that everything works.
31:07That's the hard part.
31:08Okay.
31:09We're in.
31:10Set it down.
31:11You're going to have to lift it up.
31:12Terry, you get on this side.
31:13You got it, Eric.
31:14You need it on your...
31:15You're good.
31:16Okay.
31:17Let me tap it.
31:18Don't hit me in the head.
31:19Oh, God.
31:20He's almost hitting himself in the head.
31:21All right, guys.
31:22Let's do it.
31:23We're the first one.
31:24Relax.
31:25Relax.
31:26Everybody calm down.
31:27Everybody thinks it's going to be okay.
31:28I'm basically his right-hand man, and I'm the builder, so we've probably built about nine
31:32different displays, which are small sheds, the plexiglass, but this is way bigger.
31:37Finally, you guys decided to show up.
31:39All the hard work's basically done.
31:40My buddies help out sometimes when I allow them to.
31:43We'll put it that way.
31:45One, two, three.
31:48Level it.
31:49But we had some big things planned this time, so I needed the extra manpower, even though,
31:54you know, you got these guys.
31:56These are very fragile, so be careful.
31:58AJ just got gutted.
32:00Usually around this time of year, we like to get together, you know, watch football.
32:04So Eric, he'll say, we're not going to do anything tonight.
32:07We're going to set up for the lights display.
32:09We're going to set up the blue molds.
32:11That's always something.
32:12So if we're not helping out with the display, we're not seeing Eric for that day.
32:15Now we got to move this thing.
32:17All right, well.
32:18It ain't that bad.
32:19It ain't that bad.
32:20This is by far the biggest one I've seen every year.
32:24It's just grown and grown.
32:25And every time you even come by here around Christmas time, you can't get parking, which
32:28is, it's crazy.
32:29Oh, yeah.
32:30Look at that thing.
32:31Let's get, hold on.
32:32Look at the beauty.
32:33All right, let's get it moving.
32:34Yeah, we got to test it, but we're in good shape.
32:36Do you have power for this?
32:37It's plugged in.
32:38The motor's plugged in?
32:39Yeah, give me a second.
32:40Is it not supposed to be?
32:41I don't know.
32:42Well, it should be moving.
32:43It's not moving.
32:44Yeah.
32:45Hold up.
32:46Unplug it, Jase.
32:47Let me get up there real quick.
32:49Yeah, this got all messed up here.
32:51That's why.
32:52Because you would hear it a little bit, wouldn't it, if it was going?
32:55Yeah.
32:56Yeah.
32:57That's bizarre.
32:58Try plugging in real quick.
32:59Okay.
33:01Yeah.
33:02Nothing.
33:04Yeah.
33:05That's not good.
33:11That's not good.
33:13Try plugging in real quick.
33:15Okay.
33:17Yeah.
33:18Nothing.
33:19The white's hooked up to the right one and the black's hooked up?
33:21Yeah, it shouldn't matter.
33:22Okay.
33:23Uh, looks like the wire's stripped.
33:24This one's all messed up.
33:26There's definitely sparks here.
33:27But it's not moving.
33:28No.
33:29Yeah.
33:30So it's the motor.
33:31What's that?
33:32It's probably the motor.
33:33Yeah.
33:34The motor went out.
33:35Obviously, with this stuff, you never know.
33:36Get electrical tape.
33:37Try splicing it.
33:38Maybe it got a little bent.
33:39We had to change a couple of wires.
33:41Maybe one of the splices got messed up.
33:43It happens.
33:44You just got to be able to adapt.
33:46All right.
33:47Ready?
33:48We're going to try this.
33:49Ready?
33:50Three.
33:51Two.
33:52One.
33:53Hey!
33:54Check that out.
33:56Finally.
33:57All right.
33:58It looks great.
33:59It's way bigger than I thought it was going to be.
34:04Beautiful.
34:05I love it.
34:06It's perfect.
34:07I can't wait for people to see it.
34:14Right here.
34:15Let me shift you.
34:17You know, it might be one more right here.
34:20Candace.
34:21Yes.
34:22Yes.
34:23You have been busy.
34:25Sure have.
34:26Do you see it?
34:27Do you see it?
34:28I see it.
34:29How do you like her?
34:30I don't know.
34:31She's a beauty.
34:32She's absolutely beautiful.
34:33You?
34:34This is the tree?
34:36This is the tree.
34:37This is that tree.
34:40That means that tree cost 5K.
34:43Okay?
34:44And I got more fingers, but I think that's enough.
34:46Wow.
34:47That's nice.
34:49Okay, so...
34:50Don't you love the detail in her?
34:51She's beautiful.
34:52I see that.
34:53What's the saying?
34:54Happy wife?
34:55Happy life.
34:56Yeah.
34:57Come on, somebody.
34:58But I think they need to rewrite that script.
35:00Okay.
35:01How did you pull this off?
35:02You know, I had my ways.
35:03Huh.
35:04It kind of threw me off there for a minute.
35:06And the fact that we really didn't discuss it.
35:11Were you nervous for him to see the tree?
35:13Uh...
35:15Just a little bit.
35:16And then I was like, oh, he'll be all right.
35:17Look at this.
35:18The orange box.
35:19I see a box.
35:20The pearls.
35:21The details on this beauty.
35:23And the star.
35:25Tell me something.
35:26Give me something.
35:27It looks very nice.
35:28It's different.
35:29It's unique.
35:30It's like something you see in an animated movie or something.
35:32So it's really nice.
35:33Yeah.
35:34And they go perfect in Sierra's room.
35:35You know?
35:36Wait.
35:37Wait.
35:38Wait a minute.
35:39You spent one, two, three, four, five.
35:40And it's not gonna be featured in the main living room?
35:42You know, where people can see it?
35:43No.
35:44It's gonna be in Sierra's room.
35:45It goes with the collection upstairs.
35:47That's our wow factor.
35:48That's our big bang right there.
35:52Okay.
35:53Seeing the drawer on her face, I'm like, I was okay, you know?
35:56She's happy.
35:57It's all about the Christmas spirit.
36:00Yeah.
36:01But I'm thankful.
36:02Yeah.
36:03Well, if you're happy with it, are you happy?
36:05I'm happy.
36:06Okay.
36:07But I'm just so happy that I get my garage back.
36:10Well, you know, okay.
36:11I got my garage back.
36:12Yeah, sure.
36:13You got a little bit of it.
36:14We had made an agreement about the garage.
36:16She got the tree.
36:17So, yeah, I got my garage back.
36:24Well.
36:25Hmm.
36:26You got a little bit of it.
36:27That cleared out a little bit.
36:29Yeah, I gave you like a whole walkway.
36:31I might can get a bicycle in here.
36:33Uh, you promised me I had the whole garage back.
36:37You got your tree.
36:38But he had an agreement.
36:39Okay.
36:40A binding agreement.
36:41Correct.
36:42Okay, so I...
36:43I don't think we shook on it, but okay.
36:45No.
36:46You know what we did?
36:47We hugged on it.
36:48Oh, yeah.
36:49You said you would.
36:50See?
36:51That's a binding contract right there.
36:52Okay.
36:53You know, to compromise.
36:54How to, you know, compromise and be able to...
36:58That's not what she does.
37:00What do I do?
37:01Well, yeah, you just said you promised to give me part of the garage.
37:05It's coming.
37:06It's coming.
37:07You got work to do.
37:10We'll get there.
37:19We haven't had a dinner moment in a while, huh?
37:22I know.
37:23Well, we have that proposal that we've been working on, so I figured that we would take the opportunity
37:27and just meet them here.
37:29All right.
37:31Oh.
37:32Hi, babe.
37:33Oh.
37:34Hi.
37:35What is this?
37:36Surprise.
37:37Oh, hi.
37:38This is a surprise.
37:39Mark and I set up a dinner for you guys.
37:42What kind of sweet is that?
37:45Mark and I had a conversation when Chelsea did not know and said, hey, let's do a little dinner for the two of you guys.
37:51I take up so much of her time in everything that we do, and we are together all the time.
37:57Mark is not here often, and while we did not know he was coming back into town, they need their time.
38:03They're husband and wife.
38:05Well, you know, Brian wanted to help me out.
38:07I know he knows, like, you guys are busy, and it was last-minute surprise that I came into town, so just wanted to help do something nice for us.
38:15That's sweet.
38:16And honestly, like, we're together all the time, and I know you guys don't get to spend a lot of time together, so this is something that you needed.
38:25Like, you need that together moment, so I'm happy for you guys.
38:28Well, thank you.
38:29Yeah.
38:30I appreciate it.
38:31I think the door is that way, though.
38:33No, you're right.
38:34You're right.
38:35You're right.
38:36You guys enjoy.
38:37Have fun.
38:38Do your thing.
38:40Be home in two hours.
38:41We have more work to do.
38:42Love you guys.
38:43Bye.
38:44Love you.
38:45Bye.
38:47Look how pretty those flowers are.
38:49I know.
38:50I thought it was romantic and Christmassy at the same time.
38:53You nailed it.
38:54Brian and Chelsea, they're best friends.
38:59They work together.
39:00They live together.
39:01But I love Chelsea so much, and it's nice to just have me and Chelsea for our time together, because that is what matters to me.
39:11Is this a Paloma?
39:12Yeah, your favorite drink, babe.
39:13Aw, you guys are the best.
39:14Cheers.
39:15You're the best.
39:16Here's to us.
39:19Mark, if you could collect anything, what would it be?
39:24Hmm.
39:25I'm really into looking for seashells.
39:29He does have a lot of seashells.
39:30I do.
39:31Yeah.
39:45You guys ready to turn it on?
39:46Yeah!
39:48First, first of all, let me thank everybody here.
39:50Thank you guys all for coming out.
39:52Appreciate it.
39:53It means a lot.
39:54Ready?
39:55Five.
39:56Four.
39:57Three.
39:58Two.
39:59One.
40:00Yeah!
40:03Aw, yeah.
40:04Check it out.
40:08I think they liked it.
40:10Just a guess, which makes me happy.
40:12But it was more the fact I wanted everybody else to enjoy it.
40:15It's all about them.
40:16You like the gingerbreads?
40:17Yeah.
40:18Yeah?
40:19Which one's your favorite?
40:20I was so delighted with how many people came out.
40:22And just to see how excited they were about everything.
40:25That's really why we do this.
40:26The way it creates memories and the looks on kids' faces is well worth all the work.
40:33I was very happy.
40:34I always got to try and outdo myself.
40:36Each year it gets harder and harder and I always find a way somehow.
40:40My cousin's actually a pilot.
40:42So he said the one time he actually saw it.
40:44I was like, well, it's good.
40:45Gotta see it from space though, man.
40:48I don't think it's there yet.
40:49Hey, you sound good!
40:50Hey!
40:51You sound good?
40:52Hey!
40:53Wait, wait, wait.
40:54This sounds good.
40:55It sounds good.
40:56Oh!
40:58Look at that.
41:00I got my garage back.
41:01I know!
41:02How you feel?
41:03You feel great?
41:04Woo!
41:05I do take over the whole entire house so I just realized, you know what? Ricky D, you know, he deserves a little bit of space.
41:24And, uh.
41:25Oh, you made me cry.
41:26Oh my goodness.
41:27We're moving.
41:28We're moving and shaking.
41:30Woo!
41:32You made me feel so good.
41:33I got more space.
41:34Thank you for that.
41:35Well, I'm glad you feel great.
41:36Okay.
41:37All right.
41:40I got my garage back.
41:45And it feels good.
41:47So did it.
41:48Yeah, all right.
41:49Girl, it feels real good.
41:51All right, come on now.
41:52Wait a minute.
41:53It's a half a garage.
41:57But I'll take it.
41:58Take it!
41:59You'll get the whole garage back eventually.
42:02Okay.
42:03But.
42:04Be happy with the half.
42:05But the.
42:06The.
42:07I thought we have a 50-50 love.
42:09There you go.
42:10Half.
42:11Got my half darling.
42:16Oh!
42:17Half of a garage.
42:19Candace has always supported me with my music.
42:23And I think I've always supported her desires.
42:26And I found out the more that I support her, the more it helps the relationship.
42:32It's just a good feeling.
42:33Just to have that support and that love.
42:35It's good.
42:36Good.
42:37And he doesn't think that I'm crazy.
42:38Oh!
42:39Oh!
42:48Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
42:51I got my half off my garage.
42:57Oh!
42:58Oh!
42:59Oh!
43:00Oh!
43:01Oh!
43:02How are you, baby?
